Dear Robbie

 Dear Robbie,

                    A dear friend of mine is turning a lot of our mutual friends into zombies and vampires using dark arts he learned from some of his world travels. I keep telling him that this time of semester is inconvenient since they need to study, take tests during the day, etc, but he tells me that I'm not being culturally sensitive. What should I do?

Dear Curious,

                     I really hate being a stickler for details but I must know if you mean that your dear friend is turning your mutual friends into hybrid zombie-vampires or into either a zombie or a vampire. Here is why this distinction matters: In a recent Gallup poll, statisticians found that 95% of America’s best test takers (including finals) were peace-loving zombie-vampires (the other 5% were of Asian decent, obviously). What this might infer is that your dear friend is doing what is commonly known as Supreme Educational Justice (SEJ). It sounds to me that your dear friend is doing a big favor and alleviating what could potentially be a difficult time for most students. So, I would not worry at all if your friends are becoming zombie-vampires.

                     However, there is a blimp of a problem if your friend disregards SEJ and, in actuality, is turning your mutual friends into either zombies or vampires. Here is why: In another recent Gallup poll, statisticians discovered that 100% of zombies not only have a mean IQ of 45 but they also like to eat the brains of the living. This means that zombies barely understand simple colors and shapes and that they are evil monsters. Turning victims into vampires is not a good idea, either. In general, vampire IQs are quite high and I am sure they perform well on standardized tests. But simply put, vampires are seductive immortals that want every person to become just like them (kind of like communists). Zombies are evil. Vampires are evil. And communists are probably evil, too.

                     So what should you do? Start off by confronting your friend about the issue one-on-one. Find out the facts. Then, based off of the information I have provided, decipher if what your dear friend is doing is evil, dark arts or academic enhancement. Tell your dear friend how much you love Taco Bell and Chinese food if they still think that you are not being culturally sensitive. That usually works for me.
