Something Else About Mummies
Unlike zombies, vampires, wolfmen, and even frankensteins, the mummies of our world are a finite natural resource.
It takes thousands of years to grow a corpse into a full-fledged mummy, and thanks to assholes like Brendan Fraser, our mummy supplies are rapidly dwindling. According to my estimates, by 2050, mummies will be extinct, and our children will grow up in a world bereft of bandaged,...

On Seeing Star Trek
