Why yes. Yes I am.

One of my biggest fear is to find myself in the middle of a chaotic/apocalyptic mob scene. Something along the line of The Day After Tomorrow, or Dawn of the Dead, or Cloverfield. It's not what I would be running from that I'm afraid of, it's who I'm running with. Lets face it, we're not ready for any large scale evacuation plan. Even if we are, there would be some asshole that would panic and in turn cause everyone else to panic. Then we'll all be dead.

My cell phone lost its signal for 2 hours today. I panicked, and I started imagining all of these worst case scenarios. What if my campus was attacked by zombies? The government can just as easily isolate us from the rest of the state to contain the zombies. I'll be stuck here, food for the reanimated corpses, and I sure will be since I won't be able to get to my car right away! Even if I do reach my car, the traffic would certainly doom me, specially since I can't go off road because I don't have 4 wheel drive. And I don't know anyone who has access to a helicopter to air lift me out of here.

I would most certainly be dead. Thank god I saw this video:
