If you want to show your love just say hey, or hows it going or a horror gif.
Also, I realize with this rant that like 100 folks are going to do it just to be funny, but I don't care. Myspace is beginning to get ridiculous even to promote on.
You know... I don't even leave comments normally, I spam the hell out of the bulletin board, but thats what it is for. But I have never liked putting advert on peoples pages for comments. I figure if you like us you will put it up yourself and its not like people read the comments on someone else's profile???? Or do they???
Instead of saying I bought you, if you like us that much just post. I hate you, You make me sick, or F*CK YOU ZOMBIEFRIENDS. Please leave comments like this on our page.
If you left one out of pure love. Thanks but please know that I don't like it.

Zombie's need to stagger and wander to the meet up place. We will infect and devour for bar to bar during this time, then make our way to the Milwaukee County Massacre.

Zombies come fully dressed in your zombie attire.
But if you don't have any make sure to wear some old clothes you don't mind getting bloody because we are bringing lots More gore.

Current mood: Ranting and Informative!
Category: Ranting and Informative! Movies, TV, Celebrities
This comes from one of our members on Zombiefriends I Love Skulls. He decided to make a video blog or vlog to tell our good friend Mrs. Burgess, (oh yeah the lady that we corrupted her son) (read previous blogs) to tell her that Zombiefriends is not going anywhere. KUDOS TO YOU!, "I love Skulls "!!! Here is the vlog and check him out on Myspace or on "Zombiefriends.com". His Vlogs are awesome. He also did phenomenal at informing and promoting the site as well. Rock On!
Also, For those of you on Zombiefriends, he brought up a good point. We are aware of Zombiefriends running slow, It is because we have more and more traffic and features, video and we are having to get a larger server. Tom, if you check in feel free to back me up on this I remember when myspace did the same thing. This is only temporary an will be corrected shortly.

4:47 PM - Woman Threatens Social Networking With Bill O’Reilly
Current mood: Ranting
Category: Ranting MySpace
Well... I don’t know quite what to say about this we got an email from a Dorothy Burgess in Birmingham, Al. that says that we are the reason for their son’s behavior. Where this idea comes from I have no idea. We just give a place for horror fans to social network. We are no different than any other site, just about all of the content on the site is loaded by our users. The content in question is horror that has been around way before us. I am sure this is just like the parents that blame rock, movies and pretty much anything that is wrong. This lady has contacted the school and had us banned for the school computer, which is fine. The students shouldn’t be on Zombiefriends at school and the schools should be monitoring what the students are on. It’s not our fault that parents and teachers are not watching what their kids are doing.
Also, In this email she threatens us with Bill O’Reilly? Who is Bill O’Reilly to us? I wrote O’Reilly a year and a half or so ago when he was going against Saw 2 in his Culture War. He said on his show that horror doesn’t contribute to anything positive and is one of the down falls to society. Here is about all I can find on it now, but there was a clip as well. It’s entitled appropriately "Bill O’Reilly wants to ban Horror Movies ( and is a moron )"
I answered back to him in an email, stating that he was wrong and pointed out the fundraisers, blood drives and all around good spirit of horror fans. I never got a response and truthful did not care. O’Reilly and I would argue till we were both blue in the face and it wouldn’t mean a thing. Plus nearly two years later and I see how far his culture war has gotten with the MPAA and the horror business. Nowhere! In fact I never heard anything else about this in the media period. Until...
This email with some O’Reilly Fan’s kid making trouble and she wants to blame everyone but her good little boy.
Here are the emails:
Mr. Ty Johnson,
I had a tough time finding out your information but I think you should shut down your site immediately or at least edit the content. I don’t see how you could since everything is vulgar on your site.You are corrupting our youths by giving them a place to indulge in such filth. How can you live knowing that our children are being subjected to the torture and violence on your horrible damnation of a site. I will let you know that I have contacted Bill O’Reilly and other major news sources to let them know what our children are viewing on Zombiefriends. I am forwarding this email to Mr. O’Reilly as well.
I didn’t think to much at first when my children joined different social networking sites on the net. But one day when looking around on my son’s computer, I found zombiefriends.com. A vulgar and horrifying site that he is on regularly. The site is like most others but has pictures depicting death and violence and other unthinkable acts. I asked my 14 year old son Steven about the site and he said that he learned about it from school. They have computer class and him and his friends talk back and forth on this site. I noticed something different about my son because he started acting violent at school, getting in fights and all kinds of trouble lately. It isn’t like my son to do this. He is an honor student and has never gotten in trouble before. This site like other social networking sites has profiles, blogs and videos. But with uncensored content and young kids as young as 11 - 13 talking about killing, satanic content, drugs, It is filth, just plain filth. The thing that bothers me is that a lot of parents worry about Myspace, what I have learned is there are far worse things. I have alerted the school, teachers, and other parents about this site. The school has banned it on their computers, but I want to get the message out about the horrible things on this site and our children could be talking to possible murders or something far worse. I know that you have talked about things like this on your show before and you have done a great job on making people aware about horrible things that are corrupting our children and families. This site is able to corrupt our youths because they interact in this internet environment with each other, without any supervision with every wrong form of media all rolled into one. How do we get the message out there about this plague.
Thank You,
Dorothy Burgess Birmingham, Al.
My answer,
We’ll Mrs Burgess...We are not the cause for your son’s bad behavior. Its probably the other kids at school, drugs, or maybe you don’t watch him close enough. Who knows? Who Cares? But, the one thing I know is that he didn’t go bad from us. Good move on alerting the school, the kids should be learning not on our site, we agree. It’s just a shame that the parents have to make the schools aware of something distracting them when the teachers are suppose to be watching them in the first place.We are not pushing Horror down anyone’s throat! Not Yet, Anyway!
And as for Ol’ Bill O’Reilly if he emails you back tell him that we said he is a moron and that goes for FOX NEWS as well. They are one sided and just instill more fear and confusion into an already horrified and baffled world. There are far more frightening things than in films, music, and websites. and they are all right outside of your home.
If you want to chime in on this ludicrousness, feel free to leave a message below.
Also, if you want to drop Bill O’Reilly a message or Dorothy Burgess here is their email as well.

10:06 AM - A Clockwork Green: St. Patrick’s Day In Savannah
Current mood: Irish
Well, This weekend everyone is Irish. Moni’s family is of Irish decent so that is good enough for me. Painted In Green from head to toe and sporting a Dropkick Murphys T-shirt, I set out for the second biggest St. Patrick’s Day Parade in the U.S. Jakob was St. Patrick’s Day version of Alex from Clockwork Orange (or should I say Clockwork Green). Katie was a Green Hippy, and Moni wore Green T-shirt saying "Get Lucky" with a boa, Sophie was a little green sweety with a shiney green sequence bow.
The parade here is truely amazining. Full of Irish cheer and the always incredible pipe and drums. Pipes and drums is one of the greatest forms of music ever. The Savannah squares are full food and parties and thousands of drunken people decked out in green filled the streets. The entire city was a party.

8:49 AM - World Zombie Day 10/26/08
Current mood: Zombified WorldWide
In 1968 a film was released in Pittsburgh that changed the face of horror history forever. It changed zombies from mindless undead slaves into flesh-hungry beasts that thirst for blood! Film history would never be the same.
Now, 40 years later, some new blood is picking up the rotten pieces and upping the ante.
Pittsburgh?s greatest horror hit "The It?s Alive Show" is proud to present...
World Zombie Day is the day that all ghouls from Kentucky to Kokomo, from Atlanta to Afghanistan, from Washington to Wales, and from Pittsburgh to Puerto Rico can celebrate together in a near orgy of blood covered bliss!!
Every major and minor city of the world that has ever hosted a zombie walk can band together and give one solid groan heard WORLDWIDE for the zombie cause!
RISE UP UNDEAD BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!!
NOW IS OUR TIME TO GROAN AND SHAMBLE FOR WORLD HUNGER!!
*World Zombie Day will be a day when all fans of zombie culture can join together. There will be an international charity event done throughout the cities involved to help alleviate world hunger, and this will be a first.
* The It's Alive Show, World Record Holders for the largest zombie walk ever, will spearhead this event from the very birthplace of zombie culture, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
*The participating living dead are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item to each zombie walk starting point. A mass effort will be taken on worldwide to prove that charity, goodwill, and zombie love can flourish in every nation regardless of race, ethnicity, sex, or religion, and that no matter where or how we die?
WE WILL COME BACK!!!
