Seawolff October 9, 2014 Share October 9, 2014 You and at least two other family members are watching the marathon for the third time. You find it satisfying that your 13 yr old daughter thinks Shane is a bad person; but feel compelled to convince her that Lori hooking up with Shane was understandable. You watch the trailer for the season premiere and it almost convinces you to remain on the couch for a fifth hour of marathon even though you won't get satisfaction for 4 more days. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16015-you-know-youre-obsessed-with-the-walking-dead-when/
CletusMusashi October 9, 2014 Share October 9, 2014 When I first heard about powdered alcohol, the most obvious advantage of it was ease of transport. But since I don't live a thousand miles from the nearest beer store, and since any cheapness of mass commercial transport cost will be offset anyway by the state artificially jacking up the minimum legal retail price, all I could really think was: "It'd be easy to carry in your bag during a zombie apocalypse!" 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16015-you-know-youre-obsessed-with-the-walking-dead-when/#findComment-451154
