Image above from Sexy People. The site has many pictures of average, but slightly odd-looking people. When viewed individually, they aren’t much, but when viewed collectively, heh, it’s a Mag-Lev train to Hootsville.
A year later, the zomboys are still in sheer terror, suddenly realizing that the rest of their lives will be spent hunting for brains. (Here’s another example of a kid who gets better looking with age.)
