\nThose crazy folks at eatbrains.com<\/a> organized a flashmob-esque event wherein a large number of brain eating zombies roamed a high end shopping district in S.F. doing, well, zombie kinds of things like chewing on iMacs at the Apple Store. (But can zombies really flash<\/em>?!? Or was it more of an amble-mob event?)<\/p>\n

I love the fact that the Apple Store employees thought it was cool<\/em> to be invaded<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nIt may be worth noting that the Westfield Mall and Disney security tried to bar the zombies from entering, but Apple store security did not. In fact, salespeople were jostling one another for a position where they could take the best photo of the zombies (or themselves with the zombies, or their brains being eaten by the zombies).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Great quote from focalmatter.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nIn an ironic twist of fate, the zombies meet another group of people seeking brains to consume: Scientologists.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
