i always found the idea of the early stages of a max-brooks-esc zombie apocalypse fun. like... its not really an issue yet but it could get worse very fast. its like. oh, honey, i forgot to tell you that when you walk home from school, you can only have 1 earbud in. and if anybody come at you from across the highway remember to pull your knife out. if theyre human theyll see it.
or like... people making jokes about it, possible school lockouts (in like a fun, oh yay no gym! kinda way), friends making plans to go Z hunting at 2 am on dares, having to swerve past Z's on late-night drives and yelling at them like deer, figuring out what candle wont really put you to sleep but will still give off good light, people in school bragging about what kind of weapons/security their family has
there are pros and cons, mostly cons, but think about it. instead of running to your car after you leave a store just in case theres a Z loose in the parking lot, you can just start farming and having potlucks at home or whatever. school would be cancelled more often... due to your u.s history teacher being zombified. sorry mrs. smith i hated you anyways??? forgot to brush your teeth this morning? it always smells like decaying flesh anyways so nobodys gonna notice!
obviously i am making it out to be more fun than it actually would be, but its the little things that make me find it funny.
