What is up with zombies? Seriously there must have been a zombie event up on parliament hill today. |
|
I kept seeing kids covered in blood and with white faces walking home from that direction. And fine with all the zombie fun but why oh why do they have to cover lampposts and crosswalk buttons with all of their fake blood? What is this phenomena?

1. I wonder if they're playing Humans vs. Zombies... |
|
That's going on at my campus currently. It's basically an extreme game of tag that goes on for several days or even a week. Some kids get extremely into the role-playing aspects of it.

You have to have a nerf gun (or you can use balled up white socks, but it puts you at a disadvantage). You also need a white hankerchief to wear, indicating that you are a human, and a red handkerchief for when you (almost inevitably) get turned into a zombie. I've watched some of the goings on around campus this week and they've been pretty exciting; at one point there was a "war" with over fifty kids running around shouting, shooting, and dodging each other. It seems like a blast.

"When we went through the (ByWard) Market, people were in the windows of the restaurants, and the people eating, they were scared," Couët said. "And at the Rideau (Centre), people were hiding in stores because they didn't know what was going on."
