Explanation

Over the past weeks I’ve had to try and explain my thesis to numerous interrogators, and what I’ve found is that – against all expectations – each attempt is even more inarticulate than the last. It certainly seems as though my ideas should be concretizing around specific arguments, or at the very least that I should be evolving newer and more effective evasive strategies (e.g. Interrogator: ‘So what are you working on this year?’ Bennett: *Deploys payload of chaff*), but in fact all that happens is that I mumble less and less coherently on the subject of zombies. My hope – and I’m really holding out for this – is that these explanations will continue to degrade in coherence until, at the end of the semester, they transmit simply as undead moaning.
