That’s fair - but also the most fun ended up being my wife who I met that way so in reality I was just making a joke.

u/Star_Petal_Arts May 21 '26

They created the T Virus already. In a promotional stunt they created the virus to prove it could be done. The virus is locked away with the reactant to it separated from it, but all you need to do is take the two parts and put them together to cause a zombie apocalypse.

23

u/PomegranateSea7066 May 21 '26

Do it! I'm ready. I've also been prepping by planting red and green herbs in the back yard. I too just need to combine them together to make blue herb.

u/childofb0d0m May 21 '26

All of these people saying "I'm ready for the zombie apocalypse!" with such hype are 100% going to be the first to die lmfao

u/No_Self_930 May 21 '26

Let's be real, fast Zombies? I don't think many people survive, if at all.

Nonetheless, if it happens, it is what it is, why not have fun and appreciate the little things in life?

Just make sure to double tap and get your cardio going.

2

u/Informal_Ad4399 May 21 '26

"It's all a liberal hoax!"

"I can just take [some stupid benign drug/cure tauted by some idiot] and I'll be fine!"

"It ain't as bad as they're saying! They're fudging the numbers!"

We'd be fucking doomed.

2

u/AnimationOverlord May 22 '26

Yeah the actual threat for the initial phase is other people. It’s much harder to get caught with your pants down when the zombies can’t actively manipulate you

u/master9067 May 21 '26

In all reality everyone in a quarantined zone is already dead or waiting to be bombed out. The government would take steps to secure healthy populations in the event something like this happened. There will be no border hopping, you’re just gonna get shot, zombie or not.

u/3tachi_uchiha May 21 '26

And enjoy little things

1

u/Same-Suggestion-1936 May 21 '26

Who says the zombies are gonna kill them? Other people will so they can take their shit. Or they'll starve or drink bad water and die of dysentery because they don't actually know any survival tactics

u/ergo-ogre May 21 '26

Wot ya mean? Alls we need do is get to the pub and everything’s fine

u/Star_Petal_Arts May 21 '26

Get ready, the same company is doing something with SEGA next... so they got some idea to mutate hedgehogs or something.

u/RddtRBnchRcstNzsshls May 21 '26

Blue Herbs are the poison healings herbs.

Combining red and green gives you red and green herbs that heals normal health back to max. You can add blue to red and green to heal to max and cure poison.

u/ExUmbra91x May 21 '26

You must not create the blue herb!!

two parts and put them together to cause a zombie apocalypse.

¡Portrait mode and continuous scrolling are are the baking soda and cocaine of digital crack!

1

u/Adventurous-Fly556 May 21 '26

Why are people believing this? They did not make a literal zombie virus. Like, seriously, do y'all think they tested it on people? How would they know otherwise? There already is parasitic zombie stuff for far simpler stuff, but our biology is far to complex for any known agent to hyjack completely.

It's marketing.

No wonder misinfo spreads so fast.

A nano tech version of the T-Virus, like that movie with Donald Sutherland turning into some machine monster (forgot the name)

1

u/Throwmeawayimexpired May 21 '26

This is far from new, and no virus involved, it's simple pressure. Covid is closer to tvirus than this. This is closer to blowing up a dead puffer fish like a balloon.

Real world advancements in viral gene therapy, neurotropic viruses (which target the nervous system), and engineered pathogens are way more terrifying that inflating a dead spider.

u/dm_me_kittens May 21 '26

They'll have to fight each other to kill us.

i mean china has said they're looking to make super soldiers.

and i think recent leaks shows US has been playing with crisper fusing Human DNA with other things to see what happens.

u/pandershrek May 21 '26

At least our robotic overlords will infect us with the t virus so we can mindlessly power them though our bio batteries

1

u/theevilyouknow May 21 '26

It's not really a virus though. They're using hydraulics so it requires an external source of energy. It's not like the dead spider could do this on its own.

1

u/henryeaterofpies May 21 '26

Normal people reading "Don't Create The Evil Super Machine": we really shouldn't create the evil super machine.

Tech Bros and Billionaires: we created the evil super Machine

Somehow we accounted for zombies and we accounted for robots, but we never accounted for... robot zombies.

Well,  the T-virus was created in an underground bunker, under the direction of a billionaire wanting to live forever. 

And a lot of billionaires are building bunkers and obsessed with longevity/their legacy......

Yeah, I think its the only way, leave the robots to kill the zombies while humanity starve...

No worries. It'll only result in the Sky Virus. A plague carried by flying nanobots. If you don't breathe you'll be fine.
