I think you might have it there Munk . People not recognizing Zombies because of denial and or slowly succumbing to a zombie like condition their ownselves . I am talking of course of zomboidial features . The slack jaw ,drooling , decreased mobility except when in search of food . The most insidious sign and yet one of the most evident is something I have been working on a long time that I just made up . I am of course referring to
" Single tasking " . This is defined as being directly opposite in definition to
" Muliti-tasking " Which could be defined as being able to perform more than one task at once without losing focus on any of the tasks and completing them all successfully . " Single-tasking " is best defined as barely being able to focus or concentrate on one task at a time . A classic example of single tasking might be " Couch potatoism " . Barely able to sit erect , sloppy eye hand coordination as the victim slowly grazes from a bowl of potato chips and slovenly drops half the load on the way to charging its slack jawed countenance . This might be the first step towards a kind of pseudo-zombieism . As the blood pressure increases along with the waistline and the victim heads towards their head numbing first near fatal stroke who is to say what can happen . It mayhaps be that their final impulses on this earth may be what they carry over with them to the other side ! No longer able to open a bag of potato chips without a well illustrated instruction manual they turn to the only unpackaged food supply . In other words , fellow human beings ! Of course this is only a theory .
