Um, do you mean which would be worse? I think WWIII would be wore. Since a zombie apocalypse is such a popular idea among people, though, I feel the need to shed a little light on the subject. Do you know why humans, are at the top of the food chain? Not because we're hard to kill. We're not; we're little more than bag of flesh waiting for an errant horn or claw to spill our guts like a meat pinata. No, we're on top simply because we are so absurdly good at killing things ourselves. We are simply too smart and too well-armed for any wild animal to hunt. Now consider the poor zombie. It lacks every single advantage that has kept humanity from being eaten to extinction. It wanders around in the open, it can't use weapons, it can't think or use strategy. It doesn't even have the sense of self preservation to run and hide when it's in danger. And, it's made entirely out of food. It's easy prey for any animal that wants it. Just think of the millions of stray dogs out there who'll quickly learn that zombies are an easy meal.

 

What the movies also fail to convey, is the gruesome effect the hot sun has on a rotting corpse.
 
First there is putrefaction. Thanks to the plethora of bacteria we use in our colon for digesting plant matter, our bodies are ripe for decay the second our heart stops. Since heat speeds the growth of bacteria (which are plenty happy to start feasting on you once your immune system is no longer a concern) the zombie's got a looming expiration date the very second it turns.
 
Dead bodies bloat because of the gases created by the bacteria, meaning that in warmer areas Zombies are going to start getting fat in the first few days. After a few weeks of this, the nasty, bloated zombie army will start exploding.
 
So what if an apocalypse were to happen in winter? Now, your first thought is that cold is dead meat's friend, after all, the surest way to defeat that week-long deadline is to freeze steak, keeping it fresh for months. But don't forget: Unregulated cold does awful stuff to formerly living things. The first zombie-killer is the simple fact that the human body is mostly water, and water freezes. Once the temperature drops to freezing, zombies will become significantly more rigid. After enough exposure, a dead body is going to be frozen solid and not chasing down any screaming victims.
 
As we touched on briefly before, if humanity is good at one thing, it's killing other things. We're so good at it that we've made entire other species cease to exist without even trying. Add the sheer number of armed rednecks and hunters out there to the mix, and the zombies don't even stand a chance. There were over 14 million people hunting with a license in the U.S. in 2004. At a minimum, that's like an armed force the size of the great Los Angeles area.
 
Remember, the whole reason hunting licenses exist is to limit the number of animals you're allowed to kill, because if free reign for everybody with a gun was declared, everything in the forest would be dead by sundown. It's safe to assume that when the game changes from "three deer" to "all the rotting dead things trying to eat us," there will be no shortage of volunteers.

 

 

So there you have it, WWIII would be far worse. Did the person beneath me read all that?

are you single? I felt awkward asking my friend that what made it worse is he said yes and I know for a fact he is Bi-sexual so it felt like I was hitting on him

 

are you content with your life? or do you loath for something more?
