Vree: [[EightBitTheater Undead are]] ''[[EightBitTheater not]]'' [[EightBitTheater dead as specifically denoted by the use of the prefix "un".]]  I admit I haven't actually read the article on TheVirus but if it doesn't pertain to an actual virus, which is the only thing that's really relevant to this discussion, then you must admit that seems like a rather misleading name to give it, mentioning Zombieland was just giving a singular example, I haven't time or inclination to give a thorough explanation of all the reasons it doesn't make logical sense for zombies to be long-dead and rotting individuals and still crave living flesh and I doubt anyone BUT a zombie ''would'', and your last reply was unnecessarily hostile.  In other words, shut up.  Even if the main drive of the original point isn't ''perfectly universally'' valid, and I'm pretty sure it still applies in a large number of cases, the trope has since picked up an additional point: zombie infighting.  And finally, your point about how I need to specify that it's about a "narrow" (again, not really the case) subgroup in order to avoid a misleading article is somewhat invalid, as since the beginning the trope proposal has included the line specifying that the biggest problem with this is when the zombies are "still technically alive".

Camacan: Is there any pressing need to do anything to this discussion before it dies of its own accord?
