‘Eat at Joe’s’ Shirt References ‘Night of the Living Dead’ – Endorsement, Parody, or What?

Usually these t-shirt sites are helpful, or spiteful, enough to give us quite a bit of description/text for context, but for this shirt, depicting the logo of a Zombie diner in Evans City, PA (hint: the nearest town to the farmhouse in the ‘Night of the Living Dead’ films), we’re not given much to go on.

On the one hand, taken literally, the existence of a diner logo with a Zombie waitress would seem to imply that Zombies are capable of commerce, running a fine dining establishment, engaging in good old American capitalism, what have you. On the other, it’s got faux-aging on it to imply the Zombie Apocalypse theme – as if everything relating to Zombies must be falling apart, because, ha, they are, amiright?

Hmm. Well, it’s a puzzle all right. Judging by some of the other virulently Anti-Zombie shirts they sell at Zazzle though, I’m not optimistic. I mean, those *could* be ketchup stains on the front, but somehow I doubt that’s what you’re supposed to believe.

Hat tip to FearNet for this one.
