Has someone covered themselves with walker blood as a camouflage every episode this season? The writers are getting lazy. Don't they remember that this is done because it makes you smell like a dead body and it is sickening? When they did it for the first time on TWD, someone vomited! You are telling me they covered a little girl on FTWD in last night's episode and she handled it like Halloween makeup? This is getting tiresome to me.

I've been wondering about that for a while now. I don't think it's possible to cover oneself in rotting, liquefied guts and feces without retching. Humans can get used to many things over time, but not to the stench of rotting flesh/meat. Our behavioral immune systems won't allow it because it poses such an enormous health risk. And a young child would have a crying meltdown in between retching and vomiting.
If people do this on a regular basis, they should also suffer from all kinds of skin reactions and infections. Severe acne, pinkeye (from bacteria-riddled sweat running down one's face), eventually open sores and tissue necrosis and myiasis (infection with blowfly maggots). Diseases like leprosy and necrotizing fasciitis would have a field day.
On the other hand, if diseases, bacterial decomposers and carrion insects acted exactly like they do in the real world, a zombie apocalypse would be over within a week, because Zombies would be devoured by maggots and other carrion feeders in no time. So I guess this lack of realism comes with the genre territory.

Here we go again! This time a whole development covered in walker blood! Including kids! No one nauseous from the smell!
I rolled my eyes. This show sucks.
Anyone notice how little blood they actually use? Some of them just have little smears on their face. And that's supposed to deter walkers? Especially when they don't make the slightest effort to move like they're dead...?

You are making me even more pissed off about the laziness of the people who make this show.

Not to mention, Luciana kissing the little girl on the cheek like it was nothing. I'm sorry, but I'm not perching my lips to kiss a cheek covered in rotting blood for anything.
