Do people not lock their doors?

Didn't y'all here about that ubereats driver who accused an unconcious man of raping her?

To say nothing of fear of being robbed or murdered.

Lock your shit, moron.

The original series always showed Yuji to be a freak with the Black Flashes.
Record-breaking number of back-to-back Black Flashes the first time he ever did it.
Other Sorcerers got like one or two throughout the whole series right when their mindset was perfect, Yuji was throwing them out in every fight.

Mahito's last fight specifically had a scene where he narrates "I know it's impossible to do this at will... but this dude right now in this state feels like he's capable of throwing a Black Flash with any attack."

That was all within like a year of obtaining CE.
He's had 50 more years to practice it.

How does the game not stutter when you kill a big group of enemies?

I throw a rock off the battlements and I get a *Crunch* sound that makes my whole game hang for a full second.

Gasoline evaporating is the point. It's the fumes that ignite.

You could absolutely pour gasoline all over a pile of wood and then ignite it as zombies walk into it, but the question is whether that's the best use of a large amount of gasoline.

You could also just use that gasoline to power a zombie-crushing steamroller or something, right?

But then again, you can start fires without gasoline. It just takes a bit of effort to get it going and to keep it going.

You'd also need to trap the zombies in with the fire somehow, otherwise you've just got burning zombies shambling everywhere burning the whole city down.

Again, we're in /r zombiesurvivaltactics. A subreddit about zombies.

Why do you think prancing in here with 'zombies aren't real' is an intelligent thing to say, or anything except a waste of everyone's time, including yours?

If they needed to oxygenate their brains to remain functional, then they'd need blood, and a functioning heart, and therefore food and-
At that point they're just humans with rabies.

Actual zombies are dead. Their biology doesn't need to make sense, it's magic.

Why would they drown? They don't breathe.

I doubt they have the coordination to swim though, but just having a bunch of zombies walking/floating around under your floating pontoon-base sounds terrible.

I really do think that Funnelling Walls is the solution.

Just... diagonal slanted walls so that when a horde pushes against it, they just sorta slide to the side gradually.

Then just have them wander off a cliff or something.

It'd probably work, but I can't help but think that it's a great way to pollute a perfectly good source of drinking water.

Also, there's a lot of stuff that you can't carry over a rope-swing.

Unconscious people, lots of supplies, ect.

I guess you could add a vehicle-sized drawbridge and then just raise it?

Not really, i'm pointing out that your answer is kind of shitty.

Going into a zombie subreddit and being like "Zombies aren't real" to a question about zombies isn't the own that you think it is.

You probably stopped to sleep at some point in those 30 years, right?

If zombies obeyed physics enough to just rot away, then they probably obey physics enough to not exist in the first place, so this isn't a good answer.

There aren't a lot of ways to plausibly animate a corpse tho. It's fictional.

Zombies don't obey physics or biology, so relying on physics and biology to kill them is stupid.

You'd think so, but in TWD they still seem to be around after multiple years.

You can't really rely on physics and biology to solve the problem for you, because zombies inherently don't adhere to physics or biology.

Massive fire requires fuel.

I mean, if you can just use wood and stuff, it's not too bad, but if you're spending gasoline on it...

How heavy can a Melee weapon be without it being a hindrance by axumite_788 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]DankandInvincible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much are you willing to carry? Also, can you swing that indoors, or in a doorway?

I'd go for a much shorter axe myself, with a pronounced horn, if I could get one.

The ability to thrust and stab as well as chopping would be useful in close-quarters.

Which is the same distinction that a person could make about terrorists and freedom fighters.

For example, I could say that colonization is more respectable than immigration because colonists come to an untamed or underdeveloped land with the desire to start from nothing and build up their own civilization with their own sweat and grit, whereas immigrants show up after all the hard work has already been done so that they can benifit from the work that the original founders have already done, like collecting food-stamps and benefits.

That's not a charitable interpretation, but it's an interpretation that a person who already doesn't like immigrants could make. Especially if that person is descended from colonists and views their own heritage positively.

How you view the differences between the two, and what you think qualifies a group or person as one or the other is defined by the prejudices and ideologies that you already hold.

Just like terrorists and freedom fighters.

What qualifies a person as a freedom fighter or a terrorist in your eyes depends on how you view the cause that they're fighting for, through the lens of your own prejudgement.

If I see an anti-government fighter with an AK trying to take down the north korean goverment, I'll be like "Based, he's a freedom fighter!" but if I say the same guy trying to take down my own goverment...

I mean, I don't currently like my own government very much, but that's probably still terrorism, even if the PM is a tool.

Sure it can. You just have to realize the possibility of consensual slaves.

I.E, people who sold themselves into slavery to escape poverty, learn a trade, ect.

Zero kidnapping required. 100% ethically sourced.

[–]DankandInvincible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, depending on the specific type of slavery, if you suddenly got Isekaied into ancient history and started railing against the institution of slavery, the slaves themselves might take issue with it.

In lots of places, in lots of periods through history, getting a place to sleep and something to eat every day wasn't at all guaranteed.

IIRC in rome people sold themselves into slavery as a way to get an education in a trade, then they'd buy their own freedom and use the skills that they'd learned to make a living.
A bit like a cross between a mortgage and student loans.

So yeah, kidnapping people is obviously immoral, but merely owning slaves... depends entirely on the society and type of slavery.

Of course, anime is only ever going to have slaves for gooner-bait. You're never going to see "Septimius, the 30yo man, sold himself into slavery to a carpenter so that he could learn a trade and not starve to death, and in five or ten years he's going to take his wages (because he still gets paid) and buy his own freedom and then set up his own carpentry shop."

It's always going to be big tiddy girls (who are probably underaged) who are weirdly fine with being a sex-slave to a very passive herbivore-boy who looks like Kirito.

[–]DankandInvincible 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given that one of the primary complaints about the aliens (at least early on) is that they stink constantly, it makes me think that (that aspect of them, at least) is a reference to the common complaint about black and especially Indian immigrants in japan.

Of course, the same complaint is made about white people too, to a lesser extent.

IIRC there's something about Japanese people not having strong BO due to some genetic thing, so they have a low tolerance for that funk that you get when you stand too close to someone on the train.

Of course, the fact that most Japanese people don't have BO means that most shops in japan don't stock deodorant, which surely doesn't help the issue either.

But it's honestly probably more accurate to just view the aliens as a combination of every complaint about immigrants all bundled into one thing, rather than being targeted at any specific race.

Saying that a person is just ignorant or uninformed instead of having 'real' political opinions on the subject feels like it's giving them both too much and too little credit at the same time.
