Christmas Zombies

December 19, 2008

Zombie_wandering You’ve seen them shuffling their feet and stumbling from one store to the next in your nearest shopping mall. Their blank faces the only testament to the fact that they may be about to run over that little kid crossing their path.

They’re called Christmas Zombies. And they ruin your Christmas shopping experience by lurching, over and over again, into your path and snatching up that perfect gift you were about to pick up. They usually look at it, sniff it, then put it back down – having only snatched at it “in case” they wanted it – but, it’s annoying nevertheless.

One person designed a party around these soul less shoppers. Through a Glass Brightly talks about a party he was invited to:

As yoinked from Urban Dictionary:

1. Christmas zombie
Days before Christmas, people become blind and get tunnel vision, causing them to only see what is in front of them, putting them into a trance like state while looking for the perfect gift. This effect usually happens two days before Christmas.

Guy: Dude, what was up with that chick driving the Escalade, she almost hit you.

Guy 2: Forget her, she was a Christmas zombie.

Please join us in the celebration/degredation of this phenomenon in a much more enjoyable version:

What: Christmas Zombie Pub Crawl
When: Tuesday, December 23 (Christmas Eve Eve) at 8:30 PM
WTB: We will don the most hideous Christmas garb we can find (think puffy paint and bells on candy cane sweaters) and zombify ourselves. Then the gaggle of zombies will tour the Corner area in search of the brains of any lingering students. If all goes well, we may end up singing zombie karaoke at Baja Bean or going zombie carrolling around town. Practice up since some of us discovered that it’s very difficult to sing like a zombie.
