I wasn't evolutionarily designed to fight zombies, but I do. Give yourselves some credit. One of the benefits to human (or human based) DNA is that the species is remarkably adaptable. Well, he doesn't have those stupid neurons limiting his brain power or processing speed, so I'm not surprised he's smarter.
And that's bullshit. Your life is as important as anyone else's. You may have a job to do, and that job might kill you, but that doesn't make you any less important. And if anybody's told you otherwise, they're full of shit.
