Ask Andy
(This is a feature from Undead Anonymous where Andy, the main protagonist of Breathers, answers your questions.)
Blysse Burnerchic from Black Rock City, NV asks:
When you’re dining out with a zombie and their ear falls off in their soup, is it considered proper etiquette to point it out to them?
Dining etiquette is always a touchy subject when it comes to the undead.
What’s an appropriate finger food? How do you handle a dinner guest with leaky orifices? And should you serve a Cabernet or a Pinot Noir with your mother’s broiled ribs?
These dilemmas aside, when it comes to spontaneous dismemberment at the dinner table, it can be quite embarrassing for both parties. No one wants to be the bearer of bad news. But much the same way it’s polite to let someone know they have spinach stuck between their teeth or a glob of mayonnaise on the corner of their mouth, it’s always proper to let someone know when their ear has fallen into their soup. Unless of course you’re out at a five star restaurant and looking for a good lawsuit.
Thanks for the question.
