It's the zombie apocalypse! All you have to defend yourself with is the object immediately to your left. How screwed are you?

I don't think the sofa cushion is going to be terribly useful :-(

    The object to my immediate left is my steno book stand.  I guess I could bash them with that.

    Hmmm...what could I do with a bamboo back-scratcher?

    They are gonna eat you, so you might as well scratch a few backs and make friends in the meantime.

    Burn it.  They don't work well at all.

    It works great on my back. The cat likes it, too.

    I like my stainless steel one better - it really scratches harder.

    That would probably rip my skin off.

    No, with the stainless steel one, you can apply more or less pressure.  With the bamboo one, no matter how hard I scratched, it never really stopped the itch.  It's also bulky and hard to get to the exact spot.  With the steel one, the head is not ass wide and you can hit the exact spot because the handle telescopes.

    Pretty scared the object to my immediate left is a bunch of grapes and their seedless so they wouldn't make a good weapon. Cheers!

    In my left pocket is a pocket knife.
    I should get one of those telescoping staffs, like the Rangers from Babylon5 had.  lol

    Perfect.  The remote.  I can turn the channel and face REALITY.  

    The real zombie apocalypse started ages ago.  We have people who are aware and thinking and caring and we have the TRUMP Base. 

    You see?  

    They are killing us surer than any ZOMBIE, VAMPIRE or ORC.  

    We have Sauron in China the Godless Despot, We have his minion Saruman in Russia, We have Wormtongue in N. Korea and we have Gollum who thinks he's GOT THE RIIIINGGGG.

    We know the end of this one.

    I have a clothes hanger on the bed next to me to the left. 
    I'll just have to go all Joan Crawford on those Zombie azzes.

    You shutup
    It took me over a year to build up that residue. It's coffee and tea. In the morning all I need to do is lick my desk for a quick pick-me-up
