Me too. I know we own them, but they're buried in a box somewhere. We seriously need to get our basement library set up.

I thought this, too. Poor Bill. Can't they at least give him lifts?

I'd include Justin Cronin's The Passage on this list. For me, zombies are mindless, bestial, and non-communicative, and the rank-and-file vampires in the book seem very much like this kind of monster.

Hey! Central Illinois io9 meetup someday? :)

That was rather defeatist of me, wasn't it? All of the headshots in the world won't help if you don't have a winning attitude. I'll work on that.

Plus, you've got the CDC, which will either save you ... or doom you all.

Sweet Baby Jesus, that's an hour away from me.

It's hard to remember, though, isn't it? I mean, she was a brand new character then, and she's so important to the narrative now. It's always kind of an unpleasant shock when I realize that she's actually dead. In a wibbly wobbly way.

We already saw River's death in the Silence in the Library arc, so it's not going to be her.

Ha! Of COURSE Johnny Depp would play Belagio.

I thought it was always "You know nothing, Jon Snow" and never the other way around. Or have I blocked it out due to endless repetition in the books?

I turned onto my street once to find my elderly neighbor standing motionless in his front yard, starting blankly into space. I actually thought for a second, "That overall-wearing bastard is a zombie now. Plow him down." Thankfully, he wasn't covered in blood/catsup/tomato sauce, or I might have.

Yes. This. I'm always a little nervous that I'm going to stumble across a planned zombie walk and, like, plow my car into their ranks. I mean, it's self defense, right?

Well, I wouldn't shoot anybody. That's not sporting. I'd stick to groin punches.

I fear I would've reacted ... badly ... to that situation. Like "flee the theater after punching the guy next to me in the crotch to stun him and leave him as bait" badly.

I accept your Internet hand in Internet marriage on behalf of the post.

"This Woman's Work" should really be the score for that video.

My husband and I rewound and watched it in slow mo so we'd know for sure. We didn't want a Greedo situation.

Heh. Hearted.

You had me at "romantic time-travel musical."
