Tag-like game played on college campuses. In the game, zombie players try to tag human players. Humans try to escape/defend themselves. Tags turn humans into zombies. Zombies win if all humans are turned. Humans win if all zombies starve, or if they complete the final mission. The game is played 24/7, until one side wins.
All players begin as humans and wear a bandana on their arm. A player is chosen by the moderators to be the original zombie (OZ). Zombies usually move their arm bands to their heads, to show that they've turned, but depending on the game, the OZ can stay anonymous for a day, or until a certain killcount.
The OZ tags as many humans as possible, turning them into zombies. Each zombie must tag a human every 2 days, or the zombie starves, and is out.
Mods monitor zombie kills and human transformations using an online program. All players are given an alphanumerical code before gameplay begins. When a zombie tags a human, the human must give the zombie their code. The zombie enters the code into the computer program. This process monitors the times that a zombie has fed, as well as what humans have been eaten.
Humans defend themselves from zombies by shooting nerf guns or throwing socks. If hit, the zombie is stunned for 15 min.
Safe zones are areas where zombies can't attack humans. Depending on the game, offcampus areas can also be considered safe zones.
Missions are created by mods to keep humans from hiding all game.

Get the humans vs zombies mug.The only creatures I can think of that don't need a REAL reason or justification for hurting, killing, or manipulating each other.
Other animals do what they do for survival, territory, or competitive reproduction. They may act vicious, but none act that way for fury or a simple desire to kill, especially not to their own species.
This, of course, only applies to very few people; such as serial killers, terrorists, war criminals, etc. It's still kind of interesting to think about, especially if you're... just a freak.

Attention all humans, you can see why I spend more time posting online or out in nature than conversing with you now.
Truth is, I'm kind of afraid of all of you.

Get the Humans mug.Can be used in several ways.
1) As a positive adjective, a humansexual is identical to a pansexual, wherein another person's gender is irrelevant in regards to having an affinity for them. A humansexual is above all else attracted to humans as human beings.
2) Can be used as an insult to bisexual or pansexual people and could be a compliment for some. In this respect, the person being given the label is so indiscriminate as to label them a whore. They are so hyper-sexual that they are willing to have sex with whomever they see fit for the time being. It is not the person they care about, but their abillity to please them sexually. Most of these humansexuals are only really horny and not actually bisexual.
3) Can be used as a noun to describe someone who possesses an abillity to make anyone feel attracted to them. Gender and sexual orientation is completely disregarded because the person in question is so beautiful that it does not matter. This is, of course, is so rare it's practically non-existent.

Get the humanure mug.What boot camp is to the armed forces, humans vs zombies is to anyone that wants to stand a chance in the impending zombie apocalypse.
The weeklong game, played at over 650 universities, begins with an approximately 1:30 zombie:human ratio, and ends with a final mission. Zombies wear orange bandannas around their heads; humans, around their bulging biceps. Stunned zombies wear bandannas around their necks for ten minutes, during which they walk in shame. A zombie may "turn" a human by eating its brains out, literally.
Well, by tagging a human with its hand, a zombie may figuratively eat the human's brains, thus turning it into a zombie(after a ten-minute transformation period).
A human may stun a zombie for ten minutes by hitting it with a thrown sock or(with higher success rates)shooting it with a Nerf blaster. I myself have shot many a zombie with my trusty Maverick.
Achievements may be earned for such feats as surviving a certain number of days as a human, a day in costume, tagging a certain number of humans, tags while wearing a costume, or a lot of other cool things. Man there are some really cool things that you can do. There are over 20 achievements, depending on what school you're playing at. My personal favorite is the ZOMGWTF achievement; as a human, you hit a live zombie with a thrown Nerf dart and live to tell the tale.
HvZ has many more details and stipulations; take a look at their website if you're intrigued :)

Get the humans vs zombies mug.Secular Humanism is a term which has come into use in the last thirty years to describe a world view with the following elements and principles:
A conviction that dogmas, ideologies and traditions, whether religious, political or social, must be weighed and tested by each individual and not simply accepted on faith.
Commitment to the use of critical reason, factual evidence, and scientific methods of inquiry, rather than faith and mysticism, in seeking solutions to human problems and answers to important human questions.
A primary concern with fulfillment, growth, and creativity for both the individual and humankind in general.
A constant search for objective truth, with the understanding that new knowledge and experience constantly alter our imperfect perception of it.
A concern for this life and a commitment to making it meaningful through better understanding of ourselves, our history, our intellectual and artistic achievements, and the outlooks of those who differ from us.
A search for viable individual, social and political principles of ethical conduct, judging them on their ability to enhance human well-being and individual responsibility.
A conviction that with reason, an open marketplace of ideas, good will, and tolerance, progress can be made in building a better world for ourselves and our children.
---------------------
How Do Secular Humanists View Religious and Supernatural Claims?
Secular humanists accept a world view or philosophy called naturalism, in which the physical laws of the universe are not superseded by non-material or supernatural entities such as demons, gods, or other "spiritual" beings outside the realm of the natural universe. Supernatural events such as miracles (in which physical laws are defied) and psi phenomena, such as ESP, telekinesis, etc., are not dismissed out of hand, but are viewed with a high degree of skepticism.
---------------------------------
Are Secular Humanists Atheists?
Secular humanists are generally nontheists. They typically describe themselves as nonreligious. They hail from widely divergent philosophical and religious backgrounds.
Thus, secular humanists do not rely upon gods or other supernatural forces to solve their problems or provide guidance for their conduct. They rely instead upon the application of reason, the lessons of history, and personal experience to form an ethical/moral foundation and to create meaning in life. Secular humanists look to the methodology of science as the most reliable source of information about what is factual or true about the universe we all share, acknowledging that new discoveries will always alter and expand our understanding of it and perhaps change our approach to ethical issues as well. In any case their cosmic outlook draws primarily from human experiences and scientific knowledge.
-------------------
What Is The Origin of Secular Humanism?
Secular humanism as an organized philosophical system is relatively new, but its foundations can be found in the ideas of classical Greek philosophers such as the Stoics and Epicureans as well as in Chinese Confucianism. These philosophical views looked to human beings rather than gods to solve human problems.
During the Dark Ages of Western Europe, humanist philosophies were suppressed by the political power of the church. Those who dared to express views in opposition to the prevailing religious dogmas were banished, tortured or executed. Not until the Renaissance of the fourteenth to seventeenth centuries, with the flourishing of art, music, literature, philosophy and exploration, would consideration of the humanist alternative to a god-centered existence be permitted. During the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century, with the development of science, philosophers finally began to openly criticize the authority of the church and engage in what became known as "free thought."
The nineteenth century Freethought movement of America and Western Europe finally made it possible for the common citizen to reject blind faith and superstition without the risk of persecution. The influence of science and technology, together with the challenges to religious orthodoxy by such celebrity freethinkers as Mark Twain and Robert G. Ingersoll brought elements of humanist philosophy even to mainline Christian churches, which became more concerned with this world, less with the next.
In the twentieth century scientists, philosophers, and progressive theologians began to organize in an effort to promote the humanist alternative to traditional faith-based world views. These early organizers classified humanism as a non-theistic religion which would fulfill the human need for an ordered ethical/philosophical system to guide one's life, a "spirituality" without the supernatural. In the last thirty years, those who reject supernaturalism as a viable philosophical outlook have adopted the term "secular humanism" to describe their non-religious life stance.
Critics often try to classify secular humanism as a religion. Yet secular humanism lacks essential characteristics of a religion, including belief in a deity and an accompanying transcendent order. Secular humanists contend that issues concerning ethics, appropriate social and legal conduct, and the methodologies of science are philosophical and are not part of the domain of religion, which deals with the supernatural, mystical and transcendent.
----------------------
Secular humanism, then, is a philosophy and world view which centers upon human concerns and employs rational and scientific methods to address the wide range of issues important to us all. While secular humanism is at odds with faith-based religious systems on many issues, it is dedicated to the fulfillment of the individual and humankind in general. To accomplish this end, secular humanism encourages a commitment to a set of principles which promote the development of tolerance and compassion and an understanding of the methods of science, critical analysis, and philosophical reflection.

Philosophy is questions that may never have answers,
Religion is answers that may never be questioned...
Embrace science and reject ignorance... why not embrace the ideals of a sustainable and progessive worldview like secular humanism?
"i won't trivialize this life that I know I have by letting myself believe some magic place waits for me, I know better than that... for I am a secular humanist."
