There's a fungus that infects insects, controls their brains and then bursts out of their head.

They make the insect climb to the highest point it can, then a stalk bursts from the insects head and grows even higher. The tip of the stalk is covered in spore that explode from the newly grown fungus and spread over as wide an area as possible, landing on new insects to infect.

Scientists have devised a plan to stop a zombie apocalypse.
"Parents always think kids are wasting their youth, and always have done [so] down through the millennia," says Tom Forsyth of RAD Game Tools. "'That Ug, always holding things. His front paws will develop in funny ways. Why can't he walk on all fours like normal proto-hominids?' And so, whatever the kids spend the most time doing, that's always what parents think is a waste of time, and what is corrupting their lives. It doesn't matter what that is. If all they did was homework, parents would be worrying that their kids aren't becoming well-rounded people. And, in fact, parents do this - enrolling math nerds in karate classes and the like. There is no way to win - parental paranoia ensures that kids are always doing the wrong thing."

The plan of keeping this thread on topic!

Clans of long ago that wanted to get rid of unwanted people without killing them used to burn their houses down -- Hence the expression "to get fired"

Mario, of Super Mario Bros. fame, appeared in the 1981 arcade game, Donkey Kong. His original name was Jumpman, but was changed to Mario to honor the Nintendo of America's landlord, Mario Segali.

Isn't Jesus a middle eastern name? though to be fair the arab version is Isa


There is a US government organisation set up to plan and prepare for a nuclear apocalypse. There are nuclear shelters ready and the largest businesses have been encouraged to build small branches in out of the way areas, so that if the major cities are destroyed, the big businesses can still maintain some form of supply and service for the survivors.
