Thanks, I’ll have a look.

I’m bookmarking this thread and setting an alarm on my phone for 2016, for just this purpose.
This will be the Citizen Kane of 3 year old threads about zombies.
So if there was a zombie apocalypse today, would the zombies all just go home and hang out on the internet? Buy brains on Amazon? Might maybe it easier to control the whole thing…
A bunch of mindless zombies on Amazon? I predict a surge in sales of Twilight and 3 Wolf Moon t-shirts.
If they had ethernet connections yes. Wireless would be more hit or miss. Amazon would be good because they wouldn’t have to specifically order brains, they’d get brains free with every delivery. Once Amazon goes drone they’ll need to go to plan B.
No, these are zombies not teenagers.
Yes, please give the zombies a little credit.
All the credit got spent on Justin Bieber.
Didn’t want to start a new thread about this: are the zombies in the Walking Dead likely to have a supernatural origin or aspects? There was a whole debate in the other thread about what exactly a zombie bite does. Also, afaik, they never identified the virus/bacteria/parasite that causes zombification, even with the advanced technology of the CDC. The zombies also don’t digest, breathe, or have a circulatory system.
This makes me sad, but since everybody seems to be in agreement that a virus (radiation?) is the culprit, that takes all supernatural aspects out of the running and makes TWD science fiction. Nobody is casting runes, demons aren’t materializing out of Stonehenge–it’s JUST A BUG.
Please, pile on. ::sniff, sniff:: 
Is Frankenstein’s monster technically a zombie?
No. A zombie is a reanimated corpse, which the Creature is not.
In D&D terms, the Universal version would be a flesh golem, bits of flesh cobbled together and animated. With what is implied of his creation in the novel, a homunculus is probably the closest. Still a Construct, not an Undead.
He is mostly the prototype for a new class of monster in and of themselves.
Can you impregnate a zombie?
If you did knock up a zombie, would you be liable for child support for the undead zomblet?
What about knocking up a vampire?
The zomblet doesn’t require food and doesn’t go to school, so it should technically be free. I don’t think a zomblet would have any expenses at all, not even diapers or a crib. If they don’t grow up, you don’t need to spend a lot on chains either, a baby one would maybe require an old tackle box or tool box to secure, it wouldn’t even need a lock nor airholes.
Took me a while to think about this, but yes, Adam is definitely a reanimated corpse. There’s no argument there. I think the examples you listed are more similar to a golem, which is animated but doesn’t start with a corpse.
They make great pets!
Wanna see one? 1:50 into this clip. Awwwww…Ain’t it cute?
