It's like my grandfather always told me: Mike, when life hands you Lemons, ask for a paternity test.

The Poetics of Jokes: Zombies


I.
Have you ever thought about zombie attacks?
I have.
And I decided that if there were a zombie infestation,
I would just go with it.
We already live in a world that accepts the undead—Rob Zombie,
Cannibal Corpse, Nancy Grace—
and if we learned anything from the Thriller video,
the undead make great dancers.
Except the white ones;
not even death can fix their groove.

II.
Zombies don’t actually want to pick
your brains. They’re just looking for love.
But the way they go about finding love
is appalling. They’re too touchy feely.
