Kind of funny that I would come across this article after just seeing Zombieland, which was surprisingly good! This movie was sort of in the Hangover category of movie in terms of being so ridiculously funny. It is rated 8.3 by IMDB, last I checked.
Anyway, the story from Man Called Zombie While Ordering Food, Punched Twice
IOWA CITY, Iowa — Iowa City police are investigating an early morning assault in which a man accused another of being a zombie, then punched him twice. Police said the assault occurred at 1:17 a.m. Sunday at an Iowa City restaurant south of the University of Iowa campus.
A man was ordering food when he was approached by another man who called him a zombie, then hit him in the eye. When the victim tried to call police on his cell phone, the man punched him again, breaking his nose.
The man then ran out a back door.
The victim was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

I wasn't aware that zombies ordered food.

1:17 AM, near a university? Sounds like a drunk to me (the puncher, not the punchee).

Was he a zombie? If so, he probably deserved it.

The U of I knows how to keep it classy. And I can type that because my wife isn't in the room.

Is your wife a zombie, too?

Only if he was ordering brains.

Are you insinuating that your wife is not classy?

You're hiding in the bathroom, aren't you?

Perhaps the zombies have more discerning tastes than you previously imagined.

Believe it or no, Zombies eat at Subway and Arby's. The food in those establishments is so disgusting, it works as a stopgap measure when brains are on short supply (which is common in America.)
|
And out of the darkness, the Zombie did call...

Let's just be glad this idiot was drunk, and not some delusional psycho who tried to kill him.

Everyone knows pot is a gateway drug to zombies.

Zombie Punch sounds like a cool defense maneuver, or a crappy refreshment.

Zombie File System is a cemetery. All the files are labeled by year.

ZFS (Zombie File System) is self-healing. The problem with zombies is that once you shoot them in the head they are done for. Self healing zombies though? Yikes!!

2.21 million jobs were LOST after 2 years of Bush Tax Cuts.

Didn't you hear that the Zombie Task Force has be downsized to one man and a water pistol? Apparently they lost their funding due to being accused of punching non-zombies in the face while ordering food...

Who would have known that the Zombie File System had to be killed to become popular.

I just realized that Jesse Eisenberg, who is in Zombieland, was the star of last year's film Adventureland. Now I get it.

Maybe they should've called the Church Police.
