I’m not making this up. Evidently you can write papers in Phys Rev E about escaping from the Zombie Apocalypse.
Angry Immigrant notes, along the same lines, Penny Arcade summed up the current fad well with:
By any reasonable barometer, any metric, by any comprehensive schema of assessment, undeath is this nation’s chief export. We deal it out globally, all the while surfing metabolically on the strange fumes of its production. Thus, in direct violation of the Ten Crack Commandments, we’re getting high on our own supply. And the resultant product is getting pretty thin.
We’re exporting undeath. Zombies and Vampires. Hip-deep.
And rice.
And Democracy!
You can find Tycho’s original article here and you can find their prediction (in comic form) of the next big undead thing here.
