Lottery Ticket


I am sure some of you are aware that the Mega Millions Lottery is now over 300 million dollars. I apparently was not and my mother proceeded to guilt trip me, yell at me, and maybe called me some names so that I would go buy a lottery ticket. My hand has been itching all day so I went and bought my ticket. 



Random Fact: You have a 1 in 576,000 chance of being struck by lightning. 


Random Fact: You have a 1 in 80,089,129 chance of winning the lottery. You have a better chance of being struck by lightning than you do winning the lottery. With that being said good luck...in being struck by lightning!

Rocky the Flying Squirrel

I was talking to a close friend the other day that was having a Morbid Moment as we were speaking. 


Isn't the squirrel just so cute! Who doesn't love Rocky and Bullwinkle but behind Rocky's smile may be something more. 


Okay I thought that pic was cute but in reality this is what is behind that smile. 


Apparently these squirrels enjoy gnawing on wires and creating holes in your house. Have you ever had the fear that the squirrel is cutting the wires so you will be cut off from the outside world, thereby making you easy pickings. Once the squirrel has you cut off they will gnaw their way into the home and kill you! 


Have you ever had this Morbid Moment? 

Thanks Na'Imah!

Bathroom Paranoia: Toilet Trap

After doing the first bathroom paranoia, I started to realize that I actually have a lot of fear in the bathroom.



One main fear actually started because of the movie Ghoulies. 




Have you ever sat on the toilet and became really afraid that a creature was going to come out while you are on the toilet and kill you in the worst way possible. (Yes, this happened in the movie, if you haven't seen this movie you must see it!) 




Have you ever had this Morbid Moment?


S/N: CORPOROPHOBIA or CORPOPHOBIA - fear of toilets or going to the bathroom.

Car Paranoia: Poltergeist

I was recently doing my normal trip from exit 140A to 155P on the NJ Parkway. As I was driving I had a Morbid Moment. 


Are you ever driving and pass through a highway that was built through a cemetery?


One of my favorite movies leads to me to my Morbid Moment. 

As I drive on the highway that came after the cemetery and has it on both sides makes me think Poltergeist: "You moved the headstones but did not move the bodies!"  


Have you ever had this Morbid Moment?


S/N - I added this picture just because the clown from the movie always creeped me out!

Bathroom Paranoia: Psycho

I have come to the realization that while many of us have Car Paranoia; many more of us have Bathroom Paranoia. Therefore I am starting a new section of Morbid Moments about Bathroom Paranoia. 


At some point in time, we all have taken a shower and washed our hair in the shower.....well I hope everyone has showered or bathed. 


Do you ever become paranoid that once you close your eyes to wash your hair that a serial killer has snuck up outside your shower and is about to pull a Psycho but will strangle you with piano wire! (Okay maybe I am the only one concerned with the whole piano wire as you can tell from previous posts) 




Have you ever had this Morbid Moment of Paranoia?


~Thanks Yolie!

Zombies vs Aliens - 5 Reasons We Want Zombies!

Over the past week I have been reaching out to various friends about a serious topic. "If the apocalypse happens tomorrow, would you rather face Aliens or Zombies?" Surprisingly many of my friends gave me a look and laughed at my crazy Zombie-ness but others had great insight into the topic. I decided to pull together the reasons why we should hope for zombies over aliens. 




5 Reasons Why We Want to Fight Zombies over Aliens

5. War Tactics - As humans we will first be foolish to negotiate and then we will move to the big boys and try to nuke the aliens. Obviously this is not a good because it will be hard to nuke something in space let alone what will be left of us after we start dropping bombs. 




4. Hanging in Orbit - Aliens are able to hang up high in space and wipe us out while we just run around on the planet like little ants under a magnifying glass and you know how that turns out!





3. IQ - Let's face it while we are moving forward with our space travel.....oh wait didn't we slash the NASA program.....oh well, we used to move forward, but I digress. We still are so far behind compared to Aliens that they will win simply on how advance they are. Basically we will be bringing a knife to a gun fight! 





 2. Types of Aliens - There are so many types of Aliens that can kill us very easily by either coming at us hard or slipping in through the backdoor. You have Aliens filled with acid, Predators, Decepticons, ET, and yes even Alf. We are just not prepared to deal with the types of aliens out there. 





1. Faith - If we are faced with Zombies we can usually have a way to explain how the baby sitter became a zombie. However, with Aliens we can not explain how they came about as they developed on another planet and away from our microscope. We as humans will have our faith destroyed and become crippled with the knowledge that we are not alone; even those of us that believe there has to be other life forms. We are used to being at the top of the food chain and will fail once we are no longer there.





Don't you agree we are better off with Zombies?

Car Paranoia: Airplane Highway

Are you ever driving and see an airplane fly by that is a little too low? Well I happen to live very close to the Newark Airport located in New Jersey. My favorite mall (yes I am am a Mall Rat!) happens to be located right next to the airport. 




Yes, my mall is big, it happens to be the biggest outlet mall in New Jersey, but I digress. So as I am located so close to the airport I often see planes land and take off as I am coming off of the highway and I literally duck as if they will skim the top of my car. I know this is irrational but you know you do it too!


I personally worry that a plane will mess up taking off or landing and crash through the mall or have the more likely scenario of landing on the highway as I am driving to the mall!





Do you ever have this Morbid Moment?

5 Reasons Zombies Will Win

As I continue to write different tips and tricks for survival for the upcoming apocalypse, I realize that there is a good chance that we may fail, sadly. So I decided to compile reasons as to why we may have the potential for an Epic Fail when it come to zombies. 


5 Reasons Zombies Will Win.

5. Personality Deficiency – As Americans we tend to want a win that is epic, total annihilation of the enemy, touchdown dance in the end zone type victory. However with zombies you can’t just do that, it will be a slow long war that will cause many losses on our side and as you know we do not do well with those types of wars. 



4. Denial – We often deny how bad a situation truly is and this leaves us open to becoming overrun very quickly. We may try to say the disease only affects certain types of people or even worse we will have people who are opportunists that will want to come up with a miracle drug that can heal us from zombie bites. The reality is that by the time we wake up, it will be too late. 


3. War Tactics – Zombies are not our usual type of enemies we have faced. You cannot freeze them out, you cannot starve them out, and you cannot assassinate their leader. A zombie is essentially a one man army that will keep coming. The only way is to shoot them in the head, spraying bullets and dropping bombs are pointless. 
 

2. Numbers – We only have so many people that can defend the masses. You kill a zombie and you have a corpse, a zombie kills a human and you have another zombie. We have the potential to just run out of soldiers while the zombies can achieve total war and grow their numbers. 


1. Wall-E – Yes, I am talking about the cartoon movie. Essentially in this movie, the humans have become fat and lazy and dependent on the machines they built….sound like anyone we know? If we do manage to survive past the zombies, the world as we know it will be destroyed, we will no longer need the CEOs making millions of dollars a year, we are going to need welders and carpenters. We have the potential to fail just because we have because we have forgotten how to build things with our hand.
