- only you know
- zombie type is up to you
Buy a lot of toothpaste and toothbrushes.
And I would ask those hordes of zombie to brush their teeth before they try to bite me as I would not want to get sick and maybe contagious right before I’m eaten alive.Is there something you mean to tell us?
…. Look I didn’t drop the vial… but a vial was dropped
Probably kill myself
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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!
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.
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.
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
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!
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!
And a nice view to boot
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.
I’d order the sweater with the text “the hardest part about a zombie apocalypse is pretend I’m not excited”.
Extra fast shipping I guess, or click and collect somewhere
When I order nationally it ships today, arrives tomorrow. When I order from a neighboring country it takes 1 to 2 days longer. Just don’t order from China.
I will join the army at last. My zombies are regular semi-slow ones, not magical.
#1: Cardio
Lol. I’m screwed. My asthma makes any sort of cardio impossible after 5 minutes.
Can i get cardio in two days? This changes everything.
Well… My health conditions mean that I am unlikely to survive long term after apocalypse. Even if no zombies get me. The first week would be fine, the first month maybe, but I wouldnt be alive to see the second year. I could try to do a camping trip to see if the “apocalypse” passes over quickly. If not, then there is no point trying to plan for long term survival.
I don’t presume to know your conditions but assuming you need some medicine, maybe you could buy some chemicals and make it yourself? But no sounds like a rough spot, wishing you well
I’d learn to speak zombie. Doesn’t take long, it’s mostly throat noises. And walk like a zombie, just pretend a horse kicked you in the ass yesterday.
My plan would be “go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over”
Sounds like a slice of fried gold
“Two pints and a packet of crisps please love”
Hey, that’s the same plan I have for my next date.
Dogs can’t look up!
“Yeah boiiiiiii”
Probably procrastinate for 48hrs.
Meh. Stock up on crowbars, axes, hammers, screwdrivers, etc. Drive into the hills and away from the cities, stock up on as much canned food and water I can cram into my tiny ass car. I don’t have a gun nor know how to use it, but I’d probably try and kill a cop zombie at some point after the outbreak. Then only use it on myself if it looks like it be eaten alive.
Otherwise I’d try to live a quiet secluded life reading books, attempting to garden, fish, and trap small game animals. All while mourning my loved ones while waiting for the weight of the depression to finally convince me life isn’t worth living in such a state. Hopefully that takes a good long while, but yknow…that’s unlikely.
I’d likely die of starvation or dehydration before the zombies got me, unless we’re talking sprinters…then no way.
I used to play Project Zomboid. The game mechanics make the learning difficulty high and you have to start from the beginning if you die…and there is no plot nor point to the story other than just survive in a world where you are the sole survivor of a zombie outbreak. It forces you into thinking like this often the longer you play. Amazing game, but very depressing.
You say you used to play PZ… I recommend checking out the Week One mod with the new unstable branch of B42. Breathes some life into the world prior to the apocalypse occurring.
I’m going to assume the zombies are the result of a microbial/viral infection reanimating a cadaver. Those muscles aren’t going to stay functional for long, because the body is dead, systems have stopped etc.
I’ll just get enough water and canned food to survive a week. Just lock the doors and stay inside until the zombies outside stop moving.
I would go with 2-3 month, but after first one they shouldn’t be all that dangerous. Zombies don’t work unless they are of magical kind.
1 month is a long time. Hope they don’t start doing yoga and free health care.
