And why do they talk in that strange manner? I mean, how long has it been since society collapsed at this point? Long enough to have to develop their own version of the English language?

It would be nice for a change if people here actually read the content of my threads instead of only responding to the thread title. At this point I feel like a novice fisherman hoping to catch a magnificent fish only to be disappointed in seeing an ugly snapping turtle on the end of my line.

The only thing I can think of is, they're the remnants of a cult group that stayed together and were already pretty far out there even before the collapse.

I dunno. Maybe they have that language to distinguish themselves from outsiders? I hope they all die in the war because I really don't like their leader. I didn't like the way she changed the terms with Rick.

The dumpster divers evolved! Lol

They could be Saviors in disguise.

Agreed. I'm not sure I'm trusting these weirdos either. And yeah, why do they live in a junk yard/garbage dump? That's gross. The smell of walkers in the air and humans themselves would be bad enough...and then living in a garbage dump on top of that....peeeyoooo! That place would stink!

And yeah...why do they talk so strangely?

Technically she didn't change the terms. They never spelled out how many guns "a lot" is. I think it's suspicious that they want enough guns and ammunition to fight another battle after "their fight" though. I mean, who else are they planning to go up against? Rick and his people perhaps? Do they intend to turn on their new allies after the Saviors are beaten, and insist on a larger portion of the spoils? A hundred percent sure sounds a lot better than one third! Don't you think?
