So here it is, the posting that I have been putting off... the reason for my Zombie Fascination.
... sigh ...
I cannot specifically say when it started, though I suspect that it began one fateful night in New Orleans, Louisiana, when myself and a small cadre of friends went to a conference centered around the Pagan beliefs and representatives of each particular venue of beliefs were on hand to demonstrate their ritual practices. Now I wish I could say that it was all very fine and good, however, it turned out to be an event, a day and an experience that I shall nay forget as long as I exist.
But that's a story for another posting. XD
There is an amazing resemblance between the grotesk, and often chilling, representation of animated corpses seeking out a meal among a race that inherently disregards utilizing their brains for something other than autopilot, and the social behaviors of the human race.
Now I will say this first:
The following are my personal opinions (i.e. this is MY blog...)
and I have no interest in offending anyone, however...
the statements made are based on my personal experiences and observations thus far in my life.
"I want to be different, just like everyone else..."
- FADS = PLAGUE. One person is SOOOO lazy, they put their clothes on inside out and thinks wearing your clothes this way is good. That person convinces another person that yes... clothes worn inside out is good. The next thing you know, everywhere you look, thousands of seamstress hours are brutally mauled as their creations are turned inside out. Bring in a high falootin' so-n-so to endorse this 'movement' and begin a whole clothing line dedicated to it, and you have FAD ZOMBIES. All bit by the same plague. The newest diet, house size, vehicle, 6-direction washing machines, cure for the latest ailment with side effects that outweigh the cure.
- POLLS...Pure Plague propaganda. I ask 3 doctors a question about [insert subject]. 2 of them answer one way, 1 answers another way. The following statement is TRUE. "Two out of every three doctors polledor tax [subject]. agreed [insert subject agenda]". Now you are ready to launch your agenda platform and you dispense the results of the poll in magazines, radio and T.V. which places your [subject] in the minds and conversations of everyone who were exposed to the poll. People exposed to the poll find themselves in the position of agreeing or disagreeing with the [subject], which creates sides. Enter the government which then has to take an official position about the [subject], suddenly political officials are using the [subject] as a platform to launch their campaign for election, and the government as a ruling body has to pass a law or addendum to the law to legislate
There are more, but perhaps I will put them in another post. The main theme of the Zombie Fascination is it only takes one. Once you are bit, you are one of them. o_O
