[21twelve]

My daughter's new boyfriend was over watching the show. I made it clear that would be my reaction if someone was mistreating my kids. My wife adamantly agreed!

[McGruff]

Who's watch was it that set Rick off at Terminus?

[21twelve]

“Somehow, Rick has something up his sleeve, although I can’t imagine what it could be, since its genesis must apparently be from the confines of a locked railway car.”

Reminded me of the scene in RAMBO with Stallone surrounded by the guards in the camp, clutching the mike: “Murdoch. I’m coming for YOU.”

[21twelve]

The watch used to be Maggie’s dad’s, that he gave to Glen.

[Secret Agent Man]

yes watch it again.

[boatbums]

Isn't raw chicken like one of the WORST things to try and eat? Salmonella, anyone?

Also, since you're a medical person, I've been dying to ask this. Isn't there a sort of sickness people would get of they did only eat human flesh? I recall an episode of Revolution (I think) where a couple used a trap door at their front porch to capture any people "visiting" them and they ended up butchering, cooking and eating them. They had an insanity that one of the characters said was because of eating human flesh. Any truth to that or was it just TV made up stuff?

I read that Mad Cow Disease and another like disease, Kuru, can affect people that eat human brain tissue, but I'm just wondering if the cannibals in TWD Terminus community may be growing insane because of eating humans and will factor into the show?

[Secret Agent Man]

i’m gonna call that ashton kutcher knock-off “cannibal lecturer”. /hannibal lecter

[Secret Agent Man]

you don’t eat the brains. or spinal cord stuff. or most’of the internals.

they weren’t insane from disease. insane from the situation. but in this world the bar for insane is set at a different level than before.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

That’s what it was wasn’t it, the girl was crazy.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

YES! Exactly, I forgot about that! The dissected rat nailed to the wall! She was a freakin’ nut. Thanks, now I get it.

[laplata]

You suppose correctly. I’d kill someone like that pig as easily as squashing a bug.

[laplata]

She was completely crazy and a threat to all.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

I just got home from work and Im watching the latest episode. Is this the last one for the season? Yes that girl was crazy, or like my brother said “A democrat senator in the making” lol So true.

[laplata]

Yes, it was the last of the season.

Your brother is exactly right. The Rats/Progressives are crazy and they are a threat to our freedom, safety, prosperity, etc.

[Dan Cooper]

That was from The Book of Eli, another great post-apocalyptic movie. People who were cannibals would get the shakes. Not sure if it is true. The prion diseases were first studied in New Guinea tribes that practiced cannibalism.

[boatbums]

Yep! Tou’re right, that was where I saw that. Thanks.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Oh WOW I LOVE how it is going so far! Rick bites the guys neck off ! OWWW! lol lol

[Lazamataz]

Carol and Tyrese were in the first group, I think....

[Lazamataz]

She was a rabid dog. You put those down.

[Lazamataz]

When he did that, I asked myself if I could do that and I said yes, I could, and since I'm sort of a medical person, I know where to bite to slice that carotid artery. Laz, if you ever need surgery to clean out a carotid artery, just call and I'll bite out the obstruction and save you a surgery bill. My name is Marcella Dracula, did you know that? :o)

You talk about this with a little too much enthusiasm.
