Discuss.
Humor-blogs.com tried to save it for later, but can’t remember which pocket it’s in.

I definitely lost an hour’s worth of sleep.

I knew I lost something, today. I need to go find it, so that I can function. My brain is mush.

I just feel bad for vampires and zombies who are discriminated against because there is no Night Savings Time.

I’ve seen Zombies in the day… no wait that was at a taping of Dr Phil.
We lose an hour, its stolen by the Log Cabin republicans.

Since the idea here was originally to ignite flame wars, I’d like to throw out that undead huggers like Chris C need to get a clue and take a look around them. Vampires are taking all of our blood that could be used for transfusions, zombies are digging up our cemeteries we spend good money maintaining and werewolves are keeping us up all hours with their incessant howling, making us less productive at work. If Chris was a real American, he’d get a good stake and a silver bullet and actually try to help his country out by taking out a few of these useless monsters instead of spending his time on the interweb kissing their cold, dead asses.
Sign me “Alive and Kicking” (kicking the crap out of the nonalive).

Frogster, your zombiephobic remarks are not appreciated here. I’m sure that if it were up to you, you would exterminate every last zombie. You and your third reich exterminationists can take your anti-zombie propaganda elsewhere.
Zombies are just like you and me. They just want to eek out a living, or non-living, and have enough to eat. Sure, they eat brains, and we eat food, but does that really make us so different?
Does it?
Why can’t we all just get along? When you kill a zombie, it just makes more zombies.

All I know is that if a zombie was looking for brains he’d go hungry looking around in this forum, but if he was hungry for bleeding hearts he’d find plenty.
In fact, I bet there’s a Transylvanian somewhere in your heritage, FIAR, or you wouldn’t be all jumping up and down when I exercise my rights as one of what I like to call “the living” to state my point of view.
This forum is BS. Bunch of zombie lovers. Careful about your knee jerks, zombie lovers- if you jerk a zombie’s knee hard enough it will fall right off. I’m outta here.

You all have way too much energy for a Monday after putting the clocks forward. Meh.
Vampires, zombies, things that howl. They aren’t our enemies. Muppets are our enemies! They greedily take up fake fur that we could all be shoving down the throats of hippies.

The missing hour went where Mrs. Clinton’s billing records were. It will turn up on a table in 7 years.
Clearly Karl Rove is behind this!

@Diesel- It was way more than an hour.
Look people can we get some perspective here, they prefer the term ‘life absent individual’, not Zombie. And they make up an important part of the community, call centre staff, Walmart greeters, etc etc, infact most of the service industry are zombies. Show them some respect!

RT- One important difference between zombies and muppets is that when you poke a sharp stick into a muppet you don’t pull out a bunch of disgusting green wobbly bits.
Alex- Oh oh oh. And vampires are “platelet diminished,” and I suppose werewolves are “toothily overcompensated.” Puh-leeze. You people and your PC language. Why don’t you come on over the next time I’m grilling and see what it’s like to try to fend off the werewolves grabbing at the uncooked steak? And don’t even get me started about vampires lying under the grill open-mouthed waiting for the juicy drips.
If they won’t bother making the effort to get their own life, I don’t see why I need to make my life more complicated.

that’s not blood in red meat. It’s dye. Any vampire worth his/her salt would already know this.
Nice try though.

Chris- Let me put this in New Englandese for you. When I’ve bagged me a moose (I nevah said it was cow steak) and brought it out usin’ my foh wheelah, and I’m cookin’ it up, a bunch of bloodsuckahs lyin’ round under my grill gives me a wicked headache.

Frogster- What has happened to civilisation… I’m truly hurt by your lack of sensitivity to the crypto-mythological members of our society. A simple dose of Ritalin can calm down any zombie/vampire/werewolf, and make them a valued asset to any party, look at what robin williams has accomplished now that its on proper meds.

See that’s why you should never ask someone from New Jersey about vampire problems. All those dirty needles on the beach created the damn problem in the first place!
It figures that the vampire epidemic started in Bayonne because they are the only ones who could tolerate the refinery smell.

I took the smart way out and decided to save my hour.
Next time I’m at a bar and they yell “closing time”, I’ll whip that puppy out and put it to good use.

Alex- I’m afraid that’s an old wives’ tale. In order for medication to spread throughout the body, you need to have A BEATING HEART to spread it, Robin Williams notwithstanding.
Chris- I really wish I still lived in California. I don’t much like it in New Jersey. But I guess I’m gonna have to stick up for it now. Sigh. Anyway, hmm. Let’s see. A good, snappy comeback about how great New Jersey is. Hmm. Um. Something clever.
HAH! Corn! Jersey corn! When you dry it out, it’s a great club to use on any undead creatures hanging around your front porch waiting for you to call the cat in! Yeah! Huh! Oh, yeah! Can ya feel that? Hoo!
