"Humans unconsciously acquire a vast amount of social knowledge, such as how to stand in line, the concept of personal space and why men should wear pants to work. If the guy standing on your porch doesn't follow these rules, don't let him inside..." :)

aw, son of a crap. ive already formulated several of my own zomie invasion plans (it's coming! im prepared. are you?) and now i have to formulate a bunch of robot invasion plans too? seriously. come on. sigh, back to the drawing board...

scary thought: zombie and robot invasion... simultaneously. there would be no escape.

Zombie: Brains ... brains..
Person behind door: Are you saying 'brains' because the only thing that's kept you alive is your wits? Or are you saying 'brains' because that's what you need to eat?
Zombie: ... err .... the second one..

Ah Robot Chicken...

"This is the way the world ends, Not with a bang, but with a whimper."

Forget rogue humanoid (android) uprisings. Think nano. Think gray goo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_goo).
