The important life lessons Left 4 Dead teaches you photo

I have been planning out my zombie apocalypse strategy since I was in 8th grade. I have all my plans written out, know exactly where to go when the sh*t hits the fan and am confident that I will survive the coming apocalypse. 

Even though I know I am ready for the downfall of humanity, I still play lots of zombie games just to stay on my toes. Other than teaching you to stay with a group, Left 4 Dead does a horrible job at teaching you defend yourself against zombies.  As golden-silver mocked on his deviantART, the things Left 4 Dead shows you just wouldn't work in real life. I know because I'm a Zombologist. 

And if I'm reading golden-silver's guide correctly, then that means Jim Sterling is going to become the Boomer, Brad Nicholson will be the Tank, Dyson will become the Smoker, Niero turns into a Hunter and Chad Concelmo will become a Witch.

Check out the longcat-like image in the gallery below.

A little old, but still valuable information that none should miss out on.

But but but, I'm not a smoker, fat or athletic, and I don't work out nor have a crying vagina. I'm also not black, old, mean or, as previously stated, owner of a vagina.

WHAT WILL BECOME OF ME?!

Slique, we will become just regular ol' zombies. While that may seem depressing, we do have time to plan our attack before we become infected. Such as going for children, the old, and not people with guns. Then the world will be ours!! Muhwahahaha!!!

It's all good stuff. Although I don't agree with the loud noise part. It's high pitched noises that the zombies are attracted to.
