- only you know
- zombie type is up to you
My plan would be “go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over”
“Yeah boiiiiiii”
Sounds like a slice of fried gold
Dogs can’t look up!
“Two pints and a packet of crisps please love”
Hey, that’s the same plan I have for my next date.
Is there something you mean to tell us?
…. Look I didn’t drop the vial… but a vial was dropped
Probably kill myself
I mean yeah it would suck but why not at least run for the hills get a cutesy air bnb cabin and max out your credit cards on food and ammo?
I guess the better question is: why? To what end? Live out some doomer prepper fantasy? The world would be right fucked and you’d be out in the middle of nowhere by yourself which you could do right now without the zombies.
Good questions. I don’t understand why some people are absolutely determined to suffer as much as possible and “live” through the inevitable hellscape that would follow the collapse of society. Just face reality and end it quickly.
Some of us decided long ago to spite life.
I mean, you could try, but eventually someone will find you, probably arrest you, and tear down your home
There is so much empty land in the middle of nowhere. If the goal is to never interact with society again, it is unbelievably easy to achieve.
Someone owns that land, because we’ve decided every inch of the planet is already owned
Human habitation is visible from space. There are parts of every government dedicated to just enforcing just this… Go out and try it, people are arrested for tents on this land, let alone homesteads
That’s a really good question. I know “zombie apocalypse” isn’t well defined, but it usually indicates a complete and total destruction of society. Even once the zombies are gone, there’s no civilization to return to. It’s not like a hurricane, where people start to rebuild.
Considering the post-post-apocalypse, I’m not sure it’s a world I would want to be part of.
I mean I get that but with solar panels and some MacBooks you could have a good amount of time playing games with friends and fishing. No bills, no job job. Heck I don’t even like fish, or any seafood, but it wouldn’t have to be bad bad. Like it’s not my fantasy per se, I would miss civilization, but it sure beats death and in some ways beats capitalism.
If you can’t beat the endless waves of undead may as well join them.
First put on the silliest outfit you can think of.
Stock up on canned food, ammo, batteries, fuel etc. Go to a cabin in the wilderness far away from everything. Check that I’ve got the essentials, realize I forgot something. Go back to town to pick it up. Go back to cabin, go back to town to print out some guides on how to preserve food, go back to cabin.
I was just thinking I would download Wikipedia, but I guess batteries degrade so printing probably isn’t a bad idea…
You been watching Station Eleven?
Nope is it good?
It is and has a Wikipedia subplot hence why I raise it. I also understand why no-one watched it in 2021. I certainly was not in the right mental space then.
Don’t forget to raid your local police station/armory for riot gear and a shield!
Motorcycle gear, much easier to get hold of. Kevlar reinforced, better mobility and riot gear isn’t designed for the types of hazards that zombies pose anyway i.e. thrown objects and weapons.
If Lockpicking Lawyer taught me anything, is to bring a magnet when stealing guns from cops
Crater Lake. Wizard Island. Fresh water, fish, lumber. Built in barriers.
And a nice view to boot
Do you have the means to reach this place? Lets say that you get the warning tomorrow, are you able to reach the island?
Yup!
Is water really a barrier, though? Couldn’t zombies simply walk on the bottom of the lake? It’s not like they need to breathe.
Crater Lake is the deepest lake in NA, so even if they could make it to the top of the volcano, they’d fall down the inner side and end up at the bottom of the lake.
I didn’t realize that! Nice!
Walking on the bottom of a deep body of water can make them get stuck very easily, whether in rocks or random junk. They may also have trouble getting back to the surface if they don’t know how to swim
I would wake up from the nightmare.
Bro we’re already living in one. Might as well have some fun shooting zombies in your dreams instead of doomscrolling in reality.
He was a zombie?
Well probably a genestealer cultist or a form of lesser unclean one.
Hole up in Costco for two weeks or so.
The rotting corpses who only hunger for flesh are going to be eaten by animals and bugs. Because they don’t have regular ways to maintain water balance for muscles they will atrophy and become immobile. They will pretty much be a non threat while I have plenty of food and shelter to last me.
Many of the more modern and realistic takes have it caused by an organism that’s gone endemic. Meaning anything or anybody that dies changes, regardless of if they were bitten. This provides a constant source of new zombies. In addition to the fact that other survivors are usually a bigger threat than the zombies themselves.
I remember Neil DeGrasse Tyson explaining away zombies. Really took the immersion out of any zombie movies. Basically what you said, but more of it.
- Liquidate all my assets
- Spend that money on food, bottled water, camping toilets, medicine, etc.
- Barricade myself indoors
- Wait it all out
Supplies and boat on a large body of water.
Wait for real life to kill zombies. Or for them to rebuild society.
Get gun, fishing rod and tackle, salt water filters, and those mre buckets bible thumpers are always selling on tv. Go to the marina and steal a keelboat. Dab on all the land lubbers still on shore.
Can I go with you?
Sure. I can always use more fishbait.
What the hell, i’d probably be more useful doing that than just pathetically dieing by stubbing my toe running and getting teatanus or somethign.
☠️
Zombie. Whales.
Oh, id die, probably almost instantly.
Assuming they’re the type of zombie with no viable circulatory system to help stay warm, I’d relocate up to the Arctic for a while.
I live near a number of gun stores, because America, and I have a realistic understanding of my capabilities. Now I’m not saying that I’m going to use the gun on myself, but the truth is I only really need to buy one bullet.
Buy a shotgun. Shoot myself. 😆
Oh, and get drunk.
Head on over to the Winchester and wait for this all to blow over.
Total cost: couple of quid for a pint
