I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
I can cook, took an EMT class, I can break concrete, do some carpentry, and I'm told that I'm a great person 12 times a day because that's how often I say it to myself.
Also I watched night of the living dead and dawn of the dead back to back earlier today and the differences between them in both mood and apparent meaning are quite pronounced, I didn't notice this until today.

Yes,Romero was just getting his feet wet with Night,even he admits he borrowed alot from "I am Legend" (the book,not the crap film...obviously).
Ten years later,when he did Dawn,he had a much better idea of what sort of film he was trying to make and the type of commentary he hoped to convey.

Ahh,but what if I follow the wrong films advice...what if I get bitten...turn and attempt to sprint like a Dawn of the Dead remake zombie only to discover that Romero was right all along.
Now,not only am I a zombie...but both my legs have snapped and I have to drag myself along until someone..most likely jp..shoots me in the head.
EDIT:...
Or worse yet,suppose as a zombie I somehow retain the images from those ridiculous "Return of the living Dead" Brain eating zombie films,now I'm breaking my teeth attempting to bite through someones skull when I should be going for soft chewy throat meat.

Don't worry Fitzz, if you snap your legs off we'll just walk you around so the next wave doesn't show up while we board the windows.
+5 internets if you get the referance.

Sounds like Return of the living Dead...but I may be mistaken.

Don't worry though you'll get nice long walks, we just won't feed you.

Ahh...That explains why I missed the reference,I hardly ever play video games, I have a Wii and a PS2,and occasionally play around on them,but most of the time my kids are on them.

You poor, poor man. First step of zombie survival is to get Fitzz a PS3 or an Xbox 360 so he can play zombie mode and get the references we'll be making.
Wait a second, the zombie mode is on the Wii version of Black Ops, what's your excuse there?

My excuse?..well..I just bought the Wii this Christmas,the only games we have are Super Mario Brother World,Wii Sports,Sonic and Naruto...like I said..my kids are on it most of the time. I do plan to eventually pick up a few games for myself...ones that don't feature cute cartoon characters or annoying anime ninjas.

You heard it Dakka Dakka, Fitzz needs to play zombie mode on the Wii to improve his survival chances( I would personally shoot someone who didn't get my jokes). I think we can raise $75.00!

You'd think I would lay down and die? Oh no not I, I will survive. As long as I know how to love I know I will stay alive. I've got all of my life to live and I've got all of my love to give and I'll survive.

Nachos...it's stuff like that that will insure you will always have a place in any zombie proof fortress I'm hold up in.

Stuff like what?
Your endearing capability to find humor in any given situation...and your knowledge of 70s era disco/r&b.

Heh,Surviving the zombie apocalypse is a huge motivation for getting into shape.
Hmm...I wonder..that might make a interesting book in itself..." Getting your self in Shape for Z Day"?..." What to eat so you won't get eaten"?
