Would you survive in a zombie apocalypse?
I'll disregard the fact that, as much as I adore zombies, it's not really possible to have that kind of zombie apocalypse progress to that level. Having cleared that up, and assuming it did happen?Likely not.I would consider myself a light prepper. I have water and food stored away. I have a generator and gasoline for storage. I have batteries. I have a plan I daydreamed about for fun to secure my home against the undead. I have the ability to clean lots of water, and access to water I can purify. I live in a very rural area with lots of open space around my home. I have solar lanterns, and light duty communications equipment like a HAM portable and buckets of family band walkie talkies and some CB handhelds I've picked up over the years.But looking at years of rough survival with a small yet very loud child? No.Food is hard to store on that scale. It gets both expensive and requires a lot of space. Health concerns would be a major issue, one I'm not equipped to handle. Sanitation goes to shit. Clean water would, long term, become a huge problem. Food would need to be scavenged, which would be a major risk. Defense against other survivors would be nigh impossible by myself.If I had to move, I've got a large SUV and I good sized tow behind trailer, but gasoline would always be an issue.I'd probably say, barring any major herds, I could go 6 months, at the very best. I'd like to think I'd harden up and do whatever it takes, but that's not so fun to think about what it would take to get there.
What are the skills you should learn to survive a zombie apocalypse?
Some of the vital skills. Charm. Charisma. A winning personality. Being alone is a death sentence for humans. We are social beings and absolutely suck on our own. If you aren't good at making friends, you're a goner.flash those pearly whites! Fashion sense. This applies to any apocalypse. The poorly dressed are just cannon fodder. If you dress like you're homeless, you're expendable. Develop a cool style that looks great. Practicality is nice, but don't sacrifice a great look for comfort. Your signature look will sell you as a survivor, and impress other survivors. If you can keep your hair styling splendid , makeup intact, and fashion sense in gear, then people will assume you have your shit together, and that you should be their leader. The king of the wastes. no one wants this raggedy mess on their team...... everyone wants this dude on their team The ability to say goodbye. Seriously. You've got to let go. Yeah, sure, it was your dearly beloved mother and daughter 30 minutes ago. But they are zombies now. You've got to be able to pull that trigger and blow their reanimated heads right off their reanimated bodies. No tears. There is no crying in the apocalypse kid. You buck up, you pull out that machete, and you get to hacking.kill them. kill them with fire. The ability to do one luxurious skill very, very well. Let's face it. You might not be the top dog in your survival crew. Heck, you almost certainly won't. But if you've got one super awesome skill that the top dog adores, he/she will keep you safe. The rest of the crew might just be so much cannon fodder, but the Ayatollah of RocknRolla isn't going to send his favorite foot masseuse, or the last person alive who makes a perfect camp fire peach cobbler, or the person who coifs his mohawk just right into an unnecessary death.while everyone else is crawling in pig shit, this blind guy gets to hang out safe and sound in the sky tower playing saxophone for Tina Turner.So there you have it future zombie apocalypse survivor. Forget picking plants or filtering water through a sock. That stuff won't matter. You need to thrive. Take charge. Enjoy the end of the world. Not slink around the woods alone, trying to figure out what plant won't kill you before either starving to death or becoming zombie grizzly bear food.
Do you think a zombie apocalypse can happen?
Short Answer: Apocalypse, yes…almost certainly. Zombies, pretty doubtful. There’s not much evidence of one zombie ever having been created much less an apocalypse full of them.Longer Answer: As to the apocalypse part, watch Walking Dead and subtract the zombies but leave in all the human-on-human violence driven by a world that no longer creates and distributes the resources necessary to support 7 billion of we-all. It might be energy, water, food, whatevs. But once shit starts breaking down, it will overwhelm law enforcement then compassion and then simple human decency [a relatively recent development] in very rapid order.Presto…men will survive by their brutality and women [except for the truly gnarly fighters among them] will be reduced to possessions. Not saying I look forward to it but our veneer of civilized niceties is a very recent blip in human history and is a result of relatively plentiful resources traded freely. Very fragile.
If you knew the zombie apocalypse would happen in a week, what would you be prepared to do to survive?
I’d sit down and brainstorm ways to make money off of it. Maybe throw some money into pharmaceutical, health insurance, and life insurance stocks. I’d also do squat to prepare because zombies are absolutely no match for modern militaries. If the only way for zombies to spread their disease is through biting other people it would be pretty easy to control. Also if we’re talking about “dead” people then I would be even less worried. There’s a reason dead people don’t get up and start walking around. They’re DEAD. The functionality of their tissues ceases as they decompose. They need a metabolism to do things like contract their muscles. If they’re dead they don’t have one. Assuming corpses were roaming the streets trying to take a chunk out of you, you could be pretty confident that they couldn’t keep it up for long if at all.
You have 3 weapons to choose for a zombie apocalypse. What 3 weapons do you choose, and why?
Im going to enjoy this answerSCAR H in tan chambered in 7.622. Glock 18 fully automatic inside a RONI carbine conversion kit-chambered in 9 MM3. AA12 combat shotgun in tan-chambered in 12 gaugeNow for why i chose these gunsI chose the SCAR because it is hard hitting and can be used at longer ranges and for hunting deer,bear and other game. Also 7.62 is a pretty common round so i could probably find a lot of it.I chose the Glock 18 because of its fully automatic capability's and it would be a good choice if you came upon a lot of zombies in a small space. Also 9 MM is one of if not the most common pistol round, so i could find it everywhere.And lastly the AA12 combat shotgun got chosen because i can use it in enclosed spaces to take out lots of zombies, it is also fully automatic and since it is a shotgun chambered in 12 gauge there is so many types of ammunition i could find and choose from. Also i could use it to hunt birds as well as gaining entry to houses easily.Heres my next pics for those gun nuts out there.4. Kriss vector chambered in .45 ACPand my last pick5. Beretta 92 chambered in 9 MM parabellumHope you enjoyedEDITThank you to all of those people who pointed out the glock 17 is not fully automatic,its now changed.
Are zombies real, is zombification possible?
I've recently watched Dawn of the Dead, and it got me thinking...is there really a virus to turn humans into blood thirsty cannibals? This 2012 thing...will it end with a zombie apocalypse? I've heard of something called the solanum virus and the T virus..something i have never heard of in my 16 years of living. I honestly don't know what to believe. The articles i've seen on the internet sound very convincing
Apocalypse- worried? 060606, revelations, mayan calendar, 7 years?
So according to the book of Revelations, the Apocalyse is 7 years from the Rapture to the Glorious Appearing. It is approximately 7 years from now until 2012, the year that the Mayan calendar ends. Anyone else make these connections? If so, how does 060606 figure into it, or does it? I am not worried, because of my relationship with Christ, but I am wondering if anyone else is making these connections. Okay, just a little wierd. 12/1/2012 is exactly 6 years and 6 months after 06/06/06. (My math might be off: it might be 6 yrs, 6 mos, and 6 days.) Not to mention that 12/1/2012 contains 3 12s, which is 6 doubled. Jesus said that not even he knows the day nor the hour, but this is a little wierd.
