plans for the inevitable undead uprising
Melodic:
Zombies don't eat everything, they eat humans. Various zombie movies have taught us that zombies have some form of survival instinct, and they require human meat to live. They don't have special powers, they're just dead dudes and dudettes. Can new people to this thread please read the thread before posting? This is ridiculous...
Also, I don't see the need or point for carrying melee weapons designed to kill (swords, knives, sharp things) when the primary use of a melee weapon should be to separate you from the undead: bats do this fine, but I wouldn't want a katana (seriously, stop watching Japanese cartoon shows) getting stuck in a corpse when I'm trying to make my way out of an infested city.
Spluff:
What basic instinct tells us to eat other humans? I know I'm strong willed, but not once have I been compelled to devour one of my friends.
Fletch:
Probably whatever motivates cannibals or excessively hungry people in bad situations.
I'd put a joke about girlfriends here, but some might think it in bad taste for a zombie thread. (so you'll have to think of it yourself)

I can't remember what it was called, or even when I saw it, but I remember seeing part of a bad zombie movie where they fall upon the house cat.
So, at least in that case, it would be zombies eat all living flesh.
Which is sort of what I meant.
Not, like, a zombie gnawing on a tire swing. ;d
...I once (really, just once) thought about wanting to eat a forearm.
Really, it's just like a giant turkey leg.
Perhaps the voodoo/scientific experiment brings out the the subliminal urges in the human brain, or our primal, caveman-like instinct to hunt things that run?
Sox:
Zombies are possibly fueled by survival instincts. Self preservation. They're not aware that they don't need to eat, instinct makes them do this anway. Heck, maybe they just like the taste? I enjoy eating, why shouldn't a zombie? Probably the only source of pleasure a zombie has is eating. Why do they attack humans? Because zombies know humans are different. They're a threat. They learn that the zombies aren't harmful. They see a person? Deliberate movement, strong, powerful. A zombie knows that a living person will be able to hurt it. So it does the only logical thing that a zombie would do. Attack the threat. Destroy it. Zombies do have a degree of consciousness. There are thought processes going on in those heads.
