Well see, obviously Swine Flu won't end the world. But it's all apart of the great 2012 scheme where everything will combine to bring down the world. And we've been played.

---------------------------------------------------------

One of the employees of the LHC will be infected with Swine Flu. He'll sneeze a few times on his way into the facilities before donning all his special suits and equipment. Over the following weeks, more employees will get it, unsuspecting of anything devilish at play.

The little bug is going to get into the actual LHC, but not before the Sun roars into activity with a massive solar storm and solar flares of extreme proportions, which will cause electromagnetic interference in the power grid near the LHC.

The LHC will suffer from basically imperceptible brown outs. These brown outs will cause cascading failures which will result in the shut down of the LHC once again.

But not before various atoms and atom particles were smashed into the influenza hanging around. A few other atoms will smash in the immediate vicinity that results in a micro blackhole.

This blackhole will suck up the Swine Flu/random atom combo.
By chance, immediately after the plug will be pulled, unsuspected of what just occurred. When the LHC is started up again, things will start colliding again.
Though this time, certain doom has become real - the micro blackhole actually spat out the influenza/particle combo, and it's a bit jumbled up, not quite looking like a virus.
It found its way to the part of the LHC that spits out the particles to be collided, and it gets attached to one of the particles shot out.
It is smashed once again, but the jumbled virus gets split in the process, one part attaching to another atom particle.
These two halves are benign alone. At the end of the day, the particle dust has settled, but these two halves linger in the LHC. Another day of collisions sends them whirling around in the chambers again, and they happen to collide into each other in the fray.
Now recombined, it is once again a whole new jumbled mess. It'll more resemble a bacterium spore than a virus, but contact with water vapor will send the bug roaring to life as it evolves instantly into something never been imagined.

Four days later, the bug has multiplied, and found its way out of the chambers of the LHC. In the meantime, the families of the LHC employees wonder where their loved ones are.

The next morning, they find the LHC facilities barren, no trace of bodies. Three days later, Europe has fallen.

One week later, all but a few lives have been spared around the globe. These few individuals had an active tetanus infection that fought off the viral zombification.

While the zombies aren't dead, they aren't quite alive anymore either. The virus replicates at such an insane rate inside their tissues, that the tissues get overcrowded and cell function is hampered. The brain is first to essentially rot to a pitiful comparison of its former size, though all organs and tissues wither, though only enough to provide space for the virus.

The body changes drastically inside, and the same nutrients are no longer required in the same levels, and some not at all. Though, they are hungry.

These zombies aren't hunting brains, however, but rather - the infected dead. These are the worst kind of zombies - fast, and smart, and have a requirement to maintain one unique human trait - they kill each other. But not for petty issues, rather, for the byproduct of death.

See, when the infected die, the virus seeks escape, but once having been acting as tissue of sorts for the infected, it has undergone changes. The viral cells squeeze out of the skin, in a dark red, gel-like substance. It thickens greatly as it remains exposed to the atmosphere, and encapsulates the body, over time mummifying the corpse.

The zombies crave that fresh gel, before it becomes a hard crust, as the single necessary food source.
Though, inside the fresh corpse, the active infectious virus still resides as well. For the zombies, the infectious agent is consumed by the body as an energy reserve during periods without food. Think fat stores.

The zombies, however, know that ultimately this practice of killing each other for food will be the cause of their own destruction, but it won't stop them entirely. Rather, for sport and a fresh taste from time to time, they can infect any other animal species through biting.

See, after the initial recombination and multiplications, was the only time the virus was able to survive in the air. Once that initial pathogen found the LHC personnel as hosts, it mutated and requires active transmission from host to host, by means of blood.

Following active infection, the body begins to constantly produce small quantities of blood in the mouth, and a zombie has to bite to spread the virus, which is the sole reason the virus remains active in the body once the body has transformed.

Surprisingly, as the DNA is only slightly mutated, reproduction remains the same, and the offspring are normal humans. The parents will bite the child as soon as they feel it can survive the process.

However, bodies of various animals litter the Earth, though as stated earlier, the zombies actively seek each other as the primary means of nutrition, with other animals as simply providing a fresh taste from time to time.

At times, more corpses exist than the hungry. The gel that forms on the bodies will turn into a thick, almost crust-like substance.

In late December of 2012, the aliens will return. This will be about two years since the LHC event.
See, the aliens caused all of this. This was their game all along. They seed solar systems all over the universe, in hopes that eventually a species that genetically has what they might refer to as the X-factor, the willingness to keep killing one another - it was a trait necessary to ensure they could have adequate supplies of the key resource.

That key resource is the remains on the corpses of the infected. They've intervened at various times in history, and have laid little pieces of candy here and there to get the inquisitive minds reeling. They introduced influenza forever ago knowing that high-energy impacts with certain mutations would yield their favorite little bug, which leads to zombification and, ultimately, the best safe energy source their galactic civilization has ever encountered.
It isn't certain whether they use it directly or use it to help fuel production of other energy products, but the aliens did it.
Their most influential venture into the history of mankind was in the Mayan period. And their super smart brains calculated that there were a few probable periods they should check up on the progress of man from there on out, knowing their stew would boil soon.
At the end of every baktun, they would covertly visit and judge the progress.

The aliens played us as fools.
We're doomed men. Dooooooooooomed I say!

tl;d.......OH GOD, THE ZOMBIES!!!!







Well snap, timewarp'd this thing! :eek:


Wow. Even the timestamps are screwed up - shows me having posted 1 minute before you.:)



Zombie hadron flu. It's coming.
Also....wat?

;)

I knew I should have initiated the timewarp vaccine for this thread! :p

Also, you made me do it Jeff. The LHC comment in the other swine flu thread got my typing. And typing. I couldn't stop. Then I decided, hell with this, it needs its own thread.

I'm trying to push off the reading I really really have to be doing right now. :laugh:

I suggest disco AIDS and boogie-woogie syphilis as remedies.




Maybe these temporal anomalies aren't confined to ATOT. It's possible that


Maybe these temporal anomalies aren't con......huh, look at that, another black cat just wandered by outside.


Damn LHC.

Infected hardons. Just the thing we need.


(Someone needs to travel back in time and encourage whoever named them "hadrons" to think of something else. Maybe "bonerons" would be a safer name...I don't think that could be construed in any sexual manner.)

"Captain, I'm detecting significant levels of boneron radiation in this region."

"Yes, Data, I'm detecting it in my region as well..."

destrekor, I often see you posting about 2012. Do you honestly believe that something is going to happen, or are you just joking? You seem like an otherwise intelligent guy so I don't imagine you're actually foolish enough to believe this tripe.

It's *mostly* just fun and games. It's ever so slightly a distant hope that proof of something out there is so close.

Got a lot of fanciful ideas about a lot of crazy topics, just the things that keep my head ticking. I'm a creative writer that thoroughly enjoys learning when learning is not required, gives me more to talk about and material to use, for the day that I ever eventually get around to seriously investing time into my novel(s). Need that time to invest first.

But seriously, it's really just tomfoolery, but I have like two parts to my mind. It's the logical part of my mind constantly at war with my extremely inventive part of my mind.

On a extreme side note: I've always argued that religion is kind of a genetically coded concept (or at least just very hard coded through generations upon generations), well, specifically faith - in anything that's not right there in front of you. And while I have no faith in a deity, I think my mind sometimes tries to invent faith in something to bring my restless mind a little closer to relaxation, but that logical side of my brain fights that, seemingly enjoying the torture I make myself endure.
I go on wild fanciful rides of imagination at times of "what if this was true" or "what if this happened", etc etc.

Take a look at the Time Travel thread I posted in, in Highly Technical. And a thread I started about spatial dimensions.

You'll probably notice everything I discuss 2012 it is either correcting Mayan concepts, or about aliens. Most often both. I'd love it to be true that aliens visited past civilizations and presented themselves as gods. Would be hilarious to know that religious beliefs weren't only started through the use of drugs, but also due to aliens. :D

Doubters will be the first to go!

What if the timewarps start warping forward in 2012? You make a post, and as soon as you've made the post, your OP is the very last post in a thread at that moment. :Q

The Timewarping Zombie Hardon Flu starts spraying out your speakers the moment that happens.
