    Now before I say anything about the topic I just want to say I do NOT believe that the discussed events will occur. This is purely for fun (shits and giggles)

    What would you do if a zombie apocalypse just broke out in the morning?you had no time to prepare.to give a bit more fuel to the fire purely for discussion the government has been keeping it quiet for a while while they tried to work it out.then they could not contain it as numbers started increasing and overnight there are thousands of zombies.there was no slow beginning when you could have time to prepare thousands were released at once.
    What kind of life would you leave behind? Would you travel in a group or go lone wolf? Where would you go and what would you do? What kind of decisions would you make thrust in the odds against hundreds and thousands?would you stand a chance?


    Every once and a while I will throw a new scenario at you and you comment what you would do in that situation.

    Just comment below discuss what you think of the situation and what you would do....etc...

    Also. What are your best assets to keep you and/or your group alive?

    I'd gather as much food/water/weapons as possible, then drive a car and meet up with family/friends. After that I'd try to find a safe haven probably by radio and/or calling people up. I'd then proceed in watching as many episodes of the Walking Dead just to get some pointers/enjoy my (probable) last days on earth ;)

    Assuming the zombies are relatively slow moving, I would steal my neighbors 9mm and steal a car that has been left behind and drive to Texas syphoning gas and save my cousin.

    As for me I would take all the guns in my house and my knives as well hurry up and just push a shitton of canned food and medicine into a backpack and set off to a rural area.take my family and friends and get off to a area where there is not much population.as for decisions I make it wouldn't always be the right one anybody who says that is a liar.i would try to help people but if they are a threat to our group then well we gotta get rid of the threat.I would most likely die eventually not gonna bothe kidding myself thinking I could but I would try to last a while.

    I'd drive down to the Home depot and build myself a wooden ****ing fortress. For Food I'd eat whatever they had for sale at the registers, for drinks, the soda machines.





    Now i'd really would just stay put for a few days, barricade.the doors, low ground windows. Then use whatever I can fill with water as much as i could before plumbing and other things go to rat ****. After a week when food is low, I'd attempt to find food at the grocery store.

    While in the food store, Id blast this tune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKBONwF2ViQ&feature=youtu.be

    I would gather family and friends and tell them to start gathering food/supplies. If possible i would check the news for updates on the infection. Get a group of cars together and fill up on gas and head for a unpopulated area. I would do all i can to keep my family and gf alive even tho i know we probably wont survive. I would also try to appreciate all i can of earth and life in the time i have so death dosent seem so bad.

    Ye Hubbers of little faith! Saying you probably won't survive? Not with that attitude you sure won't. I'd go down to my local gun store, take everything I could carry out of that ***** and just go to town on those zombies' faces.

    Saving my family and friends at all cost.
    Honestly, I don't think I'd even think about taking the time to collect supplies, because it's something you definitely don't care for as much as the people around you, and people can always manage to get themselves stuff if they improvise.

    I would get a fishing pole, a purifier, and a boat. Easy living.

    Hell ya in addition to that though.
    -medicine (don't want to die from a cold)
    -fire pit (so you can keep warm and cook them fish also saves you electricity you won't have to cook fish on the stove or use lights)
    -lots and lots of oil canisters

    I would get in the middle of a huge lake and just kind of sit there so you don't use oil untill you have to but what about electricity?gonna run out eventually.
    Every once and a while you would have to go to shore to get firewood but I think you would be all set.

    Hopes for zombie apocalypse:
    Zombies are stupid and will remain stupid. Therefor cannot drive.
    Zombies are slow/cant run.
    Virus isnt air-born.
    Animals/mosquitoes cannot recieve/spread the virus.
    You can down a zombie after a reasonable amount of fire/damage.

    If this goes the way I described it, this would be fun as hell. It would be like ZombieLand.
    EDIT: Zombies ran in ZL but you get the point

    I've come to think that at times a zombie apacolypse would be fun but I don't think so anymore.not with the things you would see,the things you would be forced to do oh and not to mention the thought that there are billions of them against your small group.

    Need gas, gas goes out quick... getting tons of gas to shore = huge hassle.. unless you have a pump you can dock and get real quick.

    I too originally thought about a fishing boat, you could get tons of fish (if you know how), but you wouldn't necessarily be able to cook or store them well. For energy you could find a boat with solar panels?? And once a storm hits -> you're screwed

    Getting clean water would be very difficult if you're in the ocean.. plus zombie sharks would generously rape the boat, and not in a good way

    You could just spend your days in an ocean oil rig. Bring some seeds and dirt with you and you got yourself a self sustaining garden so you won't get scurvy. Don't forget to bring a bunch of water desalination packs too. Once that is used up however, you are skewed.

    Ooooorrrr you could live on a island where zombies have not spread to yet. Hopefully there is a spring there.

    The easiest thing I could do would be to wait for all the panicky idiots to go out and try to swamp the shopping centers, die, then stop clogging up the roads with cars while I chill out, play games, and eat the food I have left in my house, but I'd probably have to deal with looters so I'd likely barricade the **** out of my house. Fortunately there's only three points on my house that I'd have to worry about, so it wouldn't be too hard.

    After it's all happened and the idiots became shamblers I'd drive to my friends house. He is an extremely resourceful motherfucker and I wouldn't have need to do anything but what he told me to do if there were an outbreak. I'd ask if we could go and get my partner from the next state (even though it's a long-ass drive), and then maybe think about trying to help my family.

    Then we'd go and find our other friends who would be complete badasses in a z-pocalypse (one of them is actually praying for one to happen), stay in a group and live generally well in some kind of fortified building. Two of them are military too, so finding weapons and such wouldn't be too hard, and a nice safe army base would be a good place to shack up while it all blows over.
