"brains."

It's that time of year again. Zombies. San Francisco. Vancouver. And in case you missed the big one last year, Vancouver 2005.
All this right on the heels of another, and bigger, Skytrain Party, celebrating robots and the new station.
When you live in No-Fun City, you gotta make your own.

Does anybody know whether this is the closest MeFi double? Same minute has to be in the running, but are there closer ones in the archive somewhere?

Almost posted to the other thread but I was beaten by mere seconds:

"Okay. So. I wanna ask the brunette out. Who wants the redhead?"

I effin' hate it when posts get deleted.

Oh come on, post this the day AFTER the event. I ride Skytrain every day to work, and yesterday, Friday, was my LAST DAY OF WORK, and I miss the party? Sad face.

I guess only the cool people heare about things like this before they happen. Us ordinary folks just read MetaFilter after the robots have gone away.

Some especially cute photos from B'more:

"Got Brains?"
Hawt.
Merry-go-round.
Good sport taking a picture from an ambulance.

This is such crappy journalism. Where are the important details? Is this a robotic zombie, or a robot fighting the zombies? And were there really no pirates nor ninjas? I'm finding this very hard to believe. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy nut, but this could even be a staged photo op designed to inspire an irrational fear of zombies.

Cool shit like this never happens in Dallas. I need to move somewhere creative.
