Why would you wish zombies were real?  The last thing anyone needs right now is a zombie apocalypse!  :D

Yes, but being able to walk past one, and kill one with a wooden pole is awesome.
Also the other one would be really scary  :o and the only weapons would be guns :(

I have an extremely high metabolism.  My body is always in high gear.  My pulse is insane.

The advantage is that it's great for my parkour.  The disadvantage is that it gives me a really strong body odor.

QuoteMy pulse is insane
if I remember correctly from 6th grade thats Really baddd.
The slower the pulse the less your body has to work to move blood, which is good if your healthy and dont have anything serious(Like in house MD how their hearts/Pulse slows=Bad)and its good because your veins are good and clear of blockage from being healthy.

I can perform a kind of automatic writing in my head when I'm sleepy.  I just imagine that I'm opening up a book to read, and the words are all there before my mind's eye in fully formed, grammatically correct English sentences.  Usually the writing makes some kind of sense, sometimes it's just nonsensical rambling - either way, it goes on as long as I keep "reading".

It's not just dreaming or some half-formed fantasy, either - I'm able to write the stuff down & read it back later.  I usually don't, because doing that tends to throw off the "flow" of the book and make it hitch after a minute or so.

I've seen encyclopedia entries, short stories, philosophy texts, and lots of other things.  Sometimes they're neat, more often they're just weird.  Occasionally they're insane.  I even saw some C source code for a chess AI once - the only time it wasn't in normal English.

EDIT:  Now, if I could compile C in my head, that would be the most awesome thing ever.  I'd be like a goddess or something.

WOW I use to have to take acid to see words in my head. I would see cake bake make take or look into those words and see the edges which would expand in my mind to show other groups of words like pine mine fine etc and each time i would focus on one spot it would expand like zooming in and i would get another string of words. Oh well its been yrs since i did any.. gee i started taking it when i was 10 in the mid 60's. Later on i had to take spatial relationship test in boot camp when i was being tested. I had to fold in my head a 1 dimensional picture into the 3 dimensional form. I had 3 choices of 1 dimensional foldouts. The drill instructor told me not even one in a million gets everyone right but i did. he said i could do 5 different things at one time and complete them. I did go on to design homes without blueprints in my head. The building inspector thought i was crazy but after they came out he was surprised.
OH I designed my buggy :) I had a mennonite build it though

According to self-proclaimed experts, yes.

But I would dispute that theory based on the fact that such a generalization was based on the study of other people, and not me.

I've never been in the norm in any type of statistic, so I don't expect those norms to apply to me.  Until the so-called "experts" can explain the exceptions to the norm, I'm going to keep calling their BS.

Ain't that the truth. My blood pressure runs about 90/60 and my body temperature runs about 96. My pulse very rarely runs below 90 even though I am athletic. When you combine that with body size (5'5") and small feet (sz 9 womens) I don't hit many of the norms.

BTW. Parkour rocks!!
