crackpot theories and thoughts

this dude named falcor...its crazy, those furrry hands work magic...



6000 views..woot

Just seen this, been too far removed from this thread, time to come back. I'll have to give Falcor a ring......Perhaps he can give me the Peter Griffin treatment, YEAAAAAA!!!! PeterAndFalcore.jpg


Also just gonna drop a crackpot here since I'm here....it's a repost of mine from 35-3 discussion, but it belongs here. It was in reply to the doctor of witches, I'll paraphrase/quote the reply:

OK, some questions that need answers.
....
Randy

• Pete mentions that he is wearing a brownish shirt. Sean calls him a 'techie' when he sends him to the water pumping station. "Brown" collar jobs are considered paraprofessional positions in the USA. Did he work at the station?
• Mentioned by someone that he is at the pumping station when we first encounter a Behemoth. Any connections?
• Has a mark on his head. Lighting bolt like Harry Potter? White hand print like the Uruk Hai? Scratch marked him some time and place?
• Ally, Adversary or Aggregate of Ink?

....

Mark on Randy = Harry Potter lightning bolt equivalent from when Ink first battled Randy and Michael's love for him protected him from dying, but couldn't stop the turning process. Michael ended with a broken arm, Randy a Z-virus.....This is why Randy is a good zombie, and is merely seeking Michael to ask him why he saved him. They both ride off into the sunset upon their united effort against Ink to come.....

Exactly! You understand! Why doesn't the so-called "Scientific" community understand? They laughed at my theories LAUGHED! But I will have the last laugh when I harvest survivors to get their virus resistant DNA! Oops I might have gotten confused with the plot to "Night of the Comet"

Because 7oddisdead--contrary to his claims--is NOT a member of the scientific community.

That's not what my b.s. In gastronomical physics says...

Right at the bottom it says... " totally legit and shit"

Sounds about right.

ive had several sierra Nevada torpedos this evening, so im revisiting this thread.

we're nearing the end of the story, so to speak. that makes me look at things we could possibly discuss in this thread.

ground zero
the little ones/ink
the family/durai/scratch/angel
just exactly what the virus is

for tonight, ill be visiting the virus.

many of us on here in the early days of the story took note of the "ant theory". there's also the pack mentality of individual groups of zoms "hunting". then we have the hive mentality of all the zoms seemingly behaving on group commands.

ive put forth the idea before of a fast forward evolution idea, and I still stand by that idea. without delving to deeply into ground zero or what happened there, lets assume that whatever came from the ground there is foreign to anything we as humans know/have known/will know.
now, if we are to analyse what a foreign body, on a viral level could do. given the opportunity to go through the proper evolutionary chains..it only makes sense to go through all the chains retaining the parts they find most valuable to the continuence of their existence. this leads me to believe that given enough time, the "undead" would reach a point where they have returned to being simply human. the final stage of evolution. jeez, if that is allowed to happen....its like hell on earth. a planet of nothing but the greatest of predators. while I don't believe the story has any sort of underlying social statements like many zombie stories do...its hard to ignore things like that. what does it say about us as a species on this planet, when the greatest group of killers are evolving toward a point of being.... human....again?

have a wild idea? put it here...the more the merrier

edit*
just wanted to note, theres only 3 threads above this one as far as views go in theory threads(@ 9500+ as of this typing). im very proud of that fact. bout a hundred more and its no. 3 couple hundred more and its no. 2 putting right under whos the rat v2.0...that tells me a lot of us are crazy here, its not just me...im ok with that

7odd, I like the idea of the evolution fast forward. Not sure if the end result is human this time around though. Will be pretty interesting if we find out where it would progress if this turns out to be what it is.

Either way, I think TOWTM has done something to try to take control of it to make his own team/race/species. That freaky f'er used what "nature" gave him and is making it "better" and possibly controllable. That may be why he holds back the Little Ones in Chapter 36, let the old stock/animalistic Zeds soak up the punishment and then the LO's swoop in and make some new stock.

So, TOWTM is super smart and taking advantage of the situation. Did he have some fore knowledge of the situation and prepared ahead of it? Maybe maybe not. Either way, he is trying to make his own super human world domination team....

Is it evolutionary or intelligent design? I think there as an intelligence behind it. Evolution is slow and plodding. It's fluke and luck. Tanya and Saul's immunity passed through their children is Evolution. Evolution gave us lions and tigers and cheetahs. Intelligent design gave us toy poodles and great danes. Evolution doesn't really want. It is more the rare event that finds 1 winner after thousands of losses.

I think there is an intelligence behind what is happening in LA.

But like everything in this story there is a wait a minute. Is Kalani bragging and saying my zombies are nastier than your's or are there really nastier ones in Hawaii than biters, Beheomeths, runners and Ink. Damn!!!

Never mind.

[7oddisdead]

Man....im not going down the "god v. Darwin" road...of course there seems to be intelligence behind what's happening and if we want to get all proper with our terminology then yes, its more intelligent design than evolution. The context that comes with that phrase just feels wrong to me.

But im not sure I like the intelligent design idea either. The way I see it, what's happening is like a thousand years of evolution happening within weeks. If you want to call that intelligent...then yes I'll agree 100%...but I still see it as evolution.

Guess I kinda did go god-v-Darwin...

[Grognaurd]

That was probably a bad choice on my part. I did not mean a god intelligent design. Grrrr.....

But, I guess I see chemistry as much as evolution. I do not see evolution as much as I see building a better mouse trap, but as I said in the other thread, I see conspiracy not random events

[7oddisdead]

I think we using different words for the same thing. Tends to happen on days like today where were the only two going back and forth on threads....ive missed this shit man, I really have.
