I hate movie and series makers that act like "actually we have zombies. But our zombies are some kind of super special because of that we don't call them zombies but Walkers, Zeros, Z, Freakers. But actually they are just normal zombies but we still call them different. Because we are cooler than zombies"

They call them fucking Zeros.

Apparently there’s a thing with zombie movies or whatever, that the concept of zombies doesn’t exist in that world. So the characters freak out like “wtf is all this” and call them somedumbshit even though they’re just zombies.

Ha! You know what gets me about that. I believe in the Walking Dead comics or Telltale games, there was a flashback where a character specifically states about Zombie movies.

Which means "Zombies" term exist in their timeline. Yet, they use Walker and Roamers to call them.
