Close your eyes and picture this for a second. Okay wait, you need to keep your eyes open to read this. Let's start over.
Picture this: you're going on a cute lil hike in the woods with your significant other or a couple of your pals. You're all enjoying the beauty of nature set before your eyes, the sound of birds chirping and leaves rustling from the wind, when suddenly in your peripheral vision you see what looks like zombie fingers sticking out of the ground!
Do you: a) freak the freak out and run out of the woods as fast as you can, b) get excited because a zombie apocalypse is for sure happening and you're prepared because you watched Shawn of the Dead and you know what to do, or c) move closer, inspect, and quickly type "zombie fingers forest" into Google search.
If you chose c), you're brave, but also, you'd be pleasantly relieved or—disappointed—to know that a zombie apocalypse is not happening, and these are a real life fungus that won't eat your brains.
