I’m not a Carl fan either but I do like Darryl.

I still miss Glenn and Abraham.

[missthethunder]

I have never like Negan.

[missthethunder]

Yup, I thought the dead Lori scenes were boring too.
The old phones were cool though.
Second gen telco retired now.

Still miss GTE.

[missthethunder]

“Ditto that. If Carl has to go, let it be while dealing a death blow to Negan.”

That would have been great.
Redeeming for all the screw ups Carl did in the past.

Sadly no.

My walking stick

[Hot Tabasco]

I actually like Michonne. Darryl is a skinny, greasy haired character that I never liked.

So the TWD troll surfaces again.........Are you lonely tonight? Maybe what you need is one of those new sex dolls to keep you occupied.........LOL!

[Vermont Lt]

Khukuri. Those things would slide through zombies.

[RedMonqey]

Most of them still have their shoes on.

Zombies like tight shoes?

Reminds me of an racist Earl Butts joke that I cannot tell in polite society.

What I'd like an explanation to is where are the critters that feast off dead tissue? From feral hogs to feral dogs(seen some)and crows that should follow "the Herds" like black clouds, and to flies and their offspring, maggots that should burst forth from the zombies when struck.(yeah, image THAT the next time Rick or Carol is knocked down and wrestle with these living ghouls.).

Which, if we are airing our gripes, what these creatures are are Ghouls, not zombies. Whether talking historical or fictional, the supernatural creature that ate flesh were called Ghouls while zombies were the undead under the control of the living. But zombies didn't start being confused with ghouls until the seventies with the Living dead movies. Even Night of the Living Dead, the grandfather of modern film zombies, called these creatures "ghouls"

As a traditional purist I say, words mean things!

"No to Zombies, Yes to Ghouls"

“Carl is going out as a peace nick”

Yup, he sure did.

His whole “let’s be slaves/sheep”
was stupid.

I’ve heard people state that they/dems wants us
to be unhappy and all but I think they just wants us distracted and these shows are for us (whoever we are that like this show).

Stupid to throw in “let’s be slaves/sheep”
but I guess they are trying the old
brainwash technique.

[Vermont Lt]

You wouldn’t be able to use that ethanol crap in an engine. But it would burn up real nice.

[Hot Tabasco]

Well Carl is dead because, well...Carl was stupid.

Or maybe it was because Carl was scheduled to be killed and that was the best way they could come up with.......

[RedMonqey]

Khukuri. Those things would slide through zombies.

True, they would be effective but not many Gurkhas running around the South.

But then, it didn't stop Michonne from procuring a Katana(Not many Samurai, either. YukYukYuk!) (grins)

[missthethunder]

“I hear that Morgan will be leaving this cast to join the “Fear the Walking Dead” group.”

That’s what I hear too.

Maybe he will run all the way to calif. haha

[RedMonqey]

“Carl is going out as a peace nick”

Poor Carl was delusional, thus he didn't know what he was doing.

I'd give a break on this one. Rick, however is just plain dumb, should have let Shane lead.

Rick gets people killed so we can "all just get along"

[Truth29]

I was more struck by an image of prancing zombies.

[Hot Tabasco]

Here you go Mr. lonely troll monkey who claims he no longer watches TWD. This is just for you.....Hopefully it will keep you sufficiently occupied that you don't have to troll this thread for attention anymore.......LOL!

For Mr. Lonely the troll monkey

[missthethunder]

“Metal workers would be in demand as they were back in the 19th century”

It would be great to see a blacksmith
but then the loud pinging....

There is an older lady across from my sister
that does make horseshoes and goes around shoeing (sp)
horses.

Strange I never hear the pinging.

I’ll have to ask about that.

[Conserv]

I still miss Shane.

[Salamander]

That is a fine stick.

[lizma2]

From what I’ve seen on the show Carol roasts the acorns whole. And I don’t have a clue how you would get them into flour. I’d crack then first and maybe bake and ground the meat.

She uses arrowroot. Who and he heck has arrowroot on hand?

Still it would be a hoot to give this a try!

Let us know what you think if you ever make them.

Work with a guy who is a hunter. I’ve yet to convince him to give me 2 prepped squirrels!
