Moral compromise, Zombie version

Some things are absolutes, and the brain-eaters are busy in many social sectors.

All we want to do is eat your brains
We’re not unreasonable; I mean, no one’s gonna eat your eyes
All we want is to do is eat your brains
We’re at an impasse here; maybe we should compromise:
If you open up the doors
We’ll all come inside and eat your brains.

Jonathan Coulton, “Re: Your Brains”

  1. I was reading some rubbish posted on line by a few postmodernists. Talk about crazy. You were right when you said, they didn’t think hard on their view they simply blamed what came before and took the alternative track. Not much thinking needed. What they came up with hasn’t and will not produce anything good, but that’s not their goal. Their objective is simply to flip the script, to try and put the brainless idiot who could tell the difference between a nickel and a elbow in charge. You can’t challenge them on that decision because you’re truth isn’t their truth. Anyway it’s maddening that they continue to eat our brains. I didn’t have much to spare. Really can you just settle for some hair? At least that can grow back.
