(Newser) – A man at a fast food restaurant in Iowa called another customer a zombie and punched him—twice. The victim was slugged in the eye as he stood at the counter to order food near the University of Iowa campus in Iowa City. As he called police on his cell phone his attacker broke his nose with a second punch. The attacker fled out the door.

I get the pic somewhat - he got turned into a zombie. But what was he doing before that? He's got two different shirts sewn together to make one. What the hell was the human doing before he got zombied that required two halves of a shirt? Is that how you become a zombie?
