Some Reasons Why Guidos Would Make Good Zombies

I actually came up with this idea last night whilst talking to Nixie. She brought up one of the trailers for the movie "Zombieland" (which looks amazing), and then mentioned that if there was a midnight premier, that we ought to go dressed as zombies. This is nothing new, of course, because to Nixie, a midnight premier is just yet another excuse to get all gussied up as someone else and try to act in character (she's more enthusiastic about that sort of thing than I am). Regardless, I was adamant about the idea because the last two midnight premiers we attended at the theatre that's closest that offers a student discount is, unfortunately, overrun by rich high-school-age kids who probably don't understand what "work" is. A large portion of these are Guidos, which I said I didn't feel like dealing with after the Harry Potter premier, to which she said "Yeah, but we'll be zombies, we can eat their brains."
"Maybe," I said in reply, "But I highly doubt your teeth are sharp enough and your jaw strong enough to gnaw through a skull that thick."
And thus I began to realise how similar a zombie and a Guido are, and so, here are some reasons why Guidos would make good zombies:
1. As stated, the skull of a Guido is quite a bit thicker than that of your everyday citizen. This means that they're less likely to just be killed by zombies, because no zombie is going to want to go through that much work to get so little brains as a result.
2. Guidos travel in groups, anyway, so the need to form a seething mass comes naturally.
3. Guidos like to "juice" themselves up, which makes for a relatively fit zombie; and fast, strong zombies are scarier.
4. Those spray-on tans would probably have a temporary preservational effect on their decaying skin, making them last longer (not to mention their heads are harder to blow off due to the thick skull).
5. Guidos are mindless, blathering idiots to begin with, so becoming a zombie isn't much of a stretch for them; they'll adapt right away.
6. A Guido has a need to see himself as superior to others, and as such will likely become a zombie pack leader, allowing the other zombies to kill and assimilate more effectively.
7. Because all those trashy, brainless girl zombies need to have someone around that they can relate to.

That's about all I can come up with for now, but as I think up more, I'll definitely add them.
