Zombie Apocalypse?

You know, from a completely scientific point of view, a Zombie Apocalypse is possible. Some insects already have their zombified brethren destroying them and spreading the disease around, best instance, is the fungus known as Ophiocordyceps camponoti-balzani. This fungus infects the ants and controls their movements, causing them to climb to the top of plants, grass for example, where after the ant is finally dead, the ant’s head basically explodes and shoots javelin like spores out to hopefully hit other ants in the area.

Such things could and probably will evolve to eventually create zombie humans. Be it a fungus, bacteria, virus, or a pryon. Hopefully, it would be a fungus or bacteria, as we can usually easily come up with a cure for them, but virus or pryon, would be much more problematic.

All these zombie movies, tv shows and whatnot nowadays may be a bit excessive, but at it’s root, it’s a definite possibility.

….and that was my scientific view on something that is popular in society today.

Peace out!

P.S.  I do hold a degree in Biology and am pursuing a Master’s degree, in case people were wondering about my credibility.  LOL!

New followers??? :D

I just wanted to say hello and welcome to my small area of the world!  :D

Dissection: Adele - Rolling in the Deep

There’s a fire starting in my heart,

 At least the song starts out with a normal kind of lyric.  So perhaps this song will in fact go somewhere.  To be clear though, there is a fire starting in her heart.

Reaching a fever pitch and it’s bringing me out the dark.

 Perhaps the fever is so high that it is causing her to glow and that way it is making the darkness go away?  Or there is something she was in the dark about and now she realizes the truth or something?

Finally I can see you crystal clear

 Ah, so she was in the dark about someone and now she can see them crystal clear.  Got it.

Go ahead and sell me out and I’ll lay your ship bare.

 Um.  I have no idea what she means by this lyric.  Yet.  I’m not sure if we ever find out.  Baring a ship…..not sure.  Haven’t heard that saying before.  I’M GONNA LAY YOUR SHIP BARE BITCH!!!!  OH SNAP!

See how I’ll leave, with every piece of you

 She’s going to leave, with every piece of this person is talking to.  So Adele is a fucked up murderer.  She is going to chop this person up into little pieces and store them in mason jars for safe keeping in a hidden freezer in her basement.  What a fucked up bitch.

Don’t underestimate the things that I will do.

 Oh we won’t honey.  You just said you’d leave with piece of the person.  There’s not much else you CAN do. Aside from putting said pieces into your vagina and then operating your vibrator.  Making some sort of nasty blood stew in your coochie.

There’s a fire starting in my heart,

Reaching a fever pitch and it’s bring me out the dark.

Is this supposed to be the chorus?  How insanely lame.

The scars of your love, remind me of us.

 So he was beating you?  This scar…on my thigh…is when he came at me with a knife and slashed me after a night of drinking.  *happy sigh*  I miss him.

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all

 Had all of what?  Given the weight of Adele in this video, she could be referring to a cake or something.  Awe man!  We almost were able to finish the whole cake!

The scars of your love, they leave me breathless

 Again the scars of love and they leave you breathless?  Breathless in fear?  In happiness?  In the memories of breathlessness?  But normally when we say this, it means breathless in a good way.  But I would not call scars a good thing or remember them in a good way.  Be more like….the gooey piles of your love, they leave me breathless.

I can’t help feeling

 I’ve gotta feeling….OOOOOOOOOOoooooo.  Oh wrong song.  What can’t you help feeling?

We could have had it all

 All what?  An amazing relationship?  What fucked it up?  Whose fault is it?  Give us the juicy info!!!!

Rolling in the deep

 Okay.  Why are we rolling?  The deep?  What the hell is that?  We’re rolling in deep shit?  Deep water?  Are we suddenly pigs and we are rolling in the deep mud/shit/food/piss of our pig pen?  WE MUST KNOW!!!!!

You had my heart inside your hand

 Technically.  We cannot have something inside your hand, unless we open it up and shove it inside.  It should be IN your hand.  Not inside your hand.  This just makes you sound stupid.  Fire your lyricist.

And you played it

Oh no….she got played by a playa.

To the beat

 Oh wait.  The heart is an instrument to play?  You didn’t get played?  What?  Good lord I am starting to get confused again.  Why does this always happen????

Baby I have no story to be told

 You have no story to be told?  Then what are we doing right now listening to?  This isn’t a story?  Is this some sort of scientific speech about playing hearts as instruments now?  I think she is just trying to confuse us more.

But I’ve heard one of you and I’m gonna make your head burn,

 Is this song supposed to be the story she heard about whoever you is?  That’s the only thing that makes sense, since  she has no story to tell.  There must be some sort of point to this song.

Think of me in the depths of your despair

 If it’s someone else’s despair, you can’t be there.  Despair is a very personal thing and how dare you attempt to invade someone else despair!!!  What a bitch!  THIS DESPAIR IS MY OWN BITCH NOW STOP BEING PSYCHO!!!!!

Making a home down there as mine sure won’t be shared

 Your home won’t be shared?  Or your despair won’t be shared, which can’t be shared in the first place, so I it must be your home.  If you choose not to share your home, that is of course your prerogative.

The scars of your love, remind you of us.
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can’t help feeling
We could have had it all

Ah, I think this is the chorus, since we sang it twice now.  This chorus is just a bunch of things that are synonyms thrown together to sound interesting when they really aren’t.

 
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it
To the beat

 Ah, this part again.  More nonsense and tomfoolery!

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
But you played it
With a beating

Once again the same….oh WAIT!  Now, we are playing your heart with a BEATING.  Are we surprised?  You are the one who is wailing about this guy who obviously was not good for you.  Are you one of those women who are like, BUT I LOVE HIM!  and stay with him?  Stupid ass.

Throw your soul through every open door

 Oh something new!  If you throw your soul once, it’s gone.  You don’t get another chance.  You are DEAD.  Or a vampire.  But they are dead.  Ah well.  This is just stupid.

Count your blessings to find what you look for

 This makes absolutely no sense.  Yes count your blessings, okay, but to find what you look for?  So I count my blessings…and I find what I am looking for….what if I have no blessings to count?  WHAT THEN?  WIll I never find what I’m looking for????  WHAT LOUSY ADVICE!  Thanks Adele.  Or Adele’s lyricist.  I already told her to fire him.

Turn my sorrow into treasured gold

 What?????  Alchemy with emotions instead!  INGENIOUS!  If I could make my sorrow into gold, I’d be filthy rich!  Now, DO IT TO ME!!!! Oh wait, this is just another stupid lyric.  And this is the bridge, so it’s supposed to be really interesting and exciting.  FAIL.

You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

 What?  Huh?  You what?  I did how?  WHAT?  Don’t tell me you just threw this lyric in there because you had nothing better to do.  Hmmmm…what can we fill this space up with….oh yes, just random gibberish.  No one pays attention to the lyrics anyway.

We could have had it all
We could have had it all
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand

But you played it,
You played it,
You played it
You played it to the beat

Blah blah blah. Repeat repeat repeat ad nauseum.  End of song.

Rejoice!  So what have we learned here?

Again, lyrics nowadays are crap.  There are a few fun things in there, but for the most part, they have no real continuity and some lyrics just sound like they were thrown in as filler.  Which is sad.  A song should having meaning in every single part.  A child could write better lyrics than this uninspired dog shit.
