I'm totally obsessed with The Walking Dead.

Do you ever wonder why our society is so into gore and death? I've never been much for vampires and zombies, but suddenly I'm hooked. Thankfully I ran across an article by Clemson University professor Sarah Lauro. According to Lauro, "the phenomenon isn’t harmful or a random fad, but part of a historical trend that mirrors a level of cultural dissatisfaction and economic upheaval." Fascinating.


Ps: would you ever Dead Yourself?
