i don't think people are disappointed by the lack of bloodshed. it's that we're getting the same conflicts over and over and they never seem to go anywhere.

let's not forget about the dreadful writing. i love how the governor inexplicably finds andrea everywhere she goes. is he fucking omnipresent? i don't watch the show because it's good. i watch it because i get a kick out of how bad it is.

Yup. This entire woodbury bullshit should've finished in the middle of season 3 when Merle and Daryl were saved by Rick et all from zombie-gladiator. There's literally nothing of value added by any of the episodes since then except for Merle having a change of heart.

it was a rotary phone with the dial if you notice he had michonne fingers in the dial when he tied it up so she couldn't just hijack a gun and shoot him. Trust me it makes sense in the walking dead land.

lol, i saw michonnes hand in some weird thing but i didnt make the rotary dialer connection. they should have shown him putting her fingers in the dial. would have made this comedy even funnier.

Cybsled · Mar 25, 2013

What's wrong with the dial? It's actually a pretty creative usage of the materials on hand.

Chukzombi · Mar 25, 2013

yeah it is creative. ill give it that. too bad they were more concerned about the rotary dial making good use than the plot being reset every week.

Yeah, what's even funnier is if you rip an old antenna out of a car like that you'll see the end of it is a circle like that and was fastened in with a bolt...it's naturally that shape and you're upset about something that stems from your own ignorance. (I'm just giving ya a hard time

)

Show is still silly...but at least have grips about stuff that are actual gripes.

Doh, I thought it looked a little too perfect, but you can't see it well before he pulls the lock with it. Still, I can change my statement to be "a guy with one hand finds a random car in the middle of nowhere with the perfect antenna to unlock it with". Still funny, just not as much. Comedy, remember?

There's also the fact that a guy who would have trouble opening a milk carton by himself hotwires a car with one hand in like ten seconds. He's a fuckin superhero. Haha.

Edit: Wait, are you talking about the bottom end? Because he definitely was using the top end.

I just let it go. I noticed while watching "Hey, he must have mumbled gogo gadget needle nose pliers really soft and put that perfect hook in the antenna" but really, I just don't care enough. If older cars actually have antennas like that then fine. If not, whatever.

Cybsled · Mar 25, 2013

Older cars had that old metal antenaes and they are easy to steal/hotwire. I should know because I used to drive an 80s boat like that long ago and it was stolen twice. Police told me cars like that were basically ez-mode steals.

Man, you're really reaching in your attempt to defend this show. I merely pointed it out because it was funny. I don't fucking care how easy a car is to hotwire, ez-mode does not mean a one handed guy can steal it in under 30 seconds.

Sure they can. A lot of those older cars, they just crack open the steering column, insert a screwdriver/blade and pull back on the piece that turning the key normally moved to start the car, and voila: car is good to go. That's what happened to mine. Until I got rid of it, I had to keep a screwdriver in the car to start it. Made it kinda awkward when I got pulled over for an expired inspection sticker ;P

Now granted, that is not what Merle did, but I bet that would have worked on that 80s POS.

Which is what we were discussing, not the old screwdriver trick. Nice try though.

You must have a vagina and it's full of sand.

Yes you could hotwire a car like that in 20 seconds with use of one hand and a tool hand.
The issue you overlook is you couldn't do with if it had a alarm system with starter disable.
Now modern cars use a electronic switch to disable the starter but old cars like that, they used to have it only as a option and a big ass relay, so it could have been possible it wasn't installed.
For a 80's car it as simple as 2 or 3 wires depending on make and model. Simply touch a bare spot to each and there she goes.

Lol. Merle doesn't have a tool hand, fuckwad. He doesn't use his stump at all. As for the alarm, it's completely fucked. It doesn't go off when he rips the antenna, it doesn't go off when he opens the door, it doesn't even go off when he starts the car. It goes off several seconds after the car starts.

And how the fuck are you calling me out for sandy vag? I pointed it out because it was FUNNY and stated as much. Are you that hard up for someone to bitch at?

A knife is about the only tool you need when hotwiring a car. Which he has on his hand/arm whatever.
You seemed quite fine to bitch and tear others apart but don't seem to like it when someone does it to you.

No one is bitching or tearing anyone apart. Are you having a bad day? Seriously.

Go watch the scene again. There are no bendable parts from his elbow to the tip of the blade he attached. It's doubtful he could even get the blade under the dash where the wires are. And, like I fucking said, he doesn't use it at all. So your point is invalid. Simply a statement of fact, not an attack. Go get a fucking massage or something.

You two go get a room. How about that crafty asian kid going ring shopping?

Aww, come on, man! That was so damn fake! The first chic zombie he walked up to had a diamond ring, gimme a break!

Seriously though, I'm wondering if she is gonna do the same thing to get a ring for him, lol.

Dabamf_sl · Mar 25, 2013

Raes, you're stretching here and it's not necessary. If you know nothing about hotwiring a car, as is the case with me, you should not criticize how someone hotwires a car. The show has plenty of flaws; we don't need extra made up ones just because it's fun to rip on it

He scanned through at least a zombie or two before finding her. But seriously, was that the saddest proposal ever? Was I the only one expecting someone to get a bullet in the head?

But new goal during zombie apocalypse.. kill all zombies and take their wallet, cash, jewels etc.. Someday the world will right itself, and I'll be dealing in diamonds when it does!

Yeah come on raes, this isnt worth discussing and this is coming from a guy who bitches about everything.
