I won’t be worrying about the zombies … I’ll be in more danger from other healthy people who will all be going bat shit insane and want to kill me, the neighbor and everyone else around for food and supplies because they all want to live five minutes longer than me.
In the end the survivors will probably kill more survivors than the zombies will.
Hello, this is your Amazon delivery driver. I’m having trouble locating your bunker address. Please send me the exact coordinates of your bunker so I can deliver this PS5 to you.
Yeah, I’ve always said (and still maintain) that I’d rather die in the first wave/initial blast or whatever, rather than try to survive through the aftermath. What kind of existence is on the other side of something like that? Personally, not one I’m interested in.
I’m with you on that, I’ll put in some effort to stay alive and help those around me … but in the event of complete social breakdown, I’m not going to work too hard to stick around for that.
It won’t be because I gave up … it’ll be because I just won’t want to deal with all the bullshit that everyone will create just to save themselves.
It’s interesting how different people are. I wouldn’t even blink in that scenario. Go into survival mode and start surviving. It’s not as hard as you think, once you have some training. It’s actually probably quite a bit easier than working 40-60 hours per week, and trying to hold a life together in your limited free time. Sure, you won’t get Sunday champagne brunch anymore, but you won’t have to deal with a dimwit middle manager for 60% of your waking hours anymore either.
Remember, if you ever want to take yourself out of a zombie apocalypse you have to shoot your brain out or you’ll just become a future problem for the living
Exactly, I’ve spent my entire existence doing the right thing, the second it hits the fan I plan on going the Dexter route and letting loose and taking down the crazies.

Well the good thing is…there won’t be too many healthy people. The vast majority of people who die in this type of scenario will be from shitting themselves to death, just as we have up until modern times.
When healthcare systems collapse it just takes one injury, one bad sip of water, a bite of questionably prepared or preserved food, and you’ll be in a world of trouble.
If a zombie apocalypse ever happens

I have 2.5 acres of swamp, solar power and plenty of ammo. I’ll just go hide. Which I do every weekend anyway. :)
Get off mah swamp
Forget cottage-core, we’re about Shrek-core now

I promise not to change the locks on your bunker.
Amazon regional coordinator: … why do we keep losing delivery drivers after they go to this address?
How will you get food and water once the power (for everyone else) and plumbing go out?

Ideally I would like some prep time and survive the initial part just so I can be smug about it for a little while.
I’ve heard and read the same sentiment before:
The living will envy the dead

Survival is a winners game. Get busy living, or get busy dying.

I’m going to start welding Cadillacs together and become a mad max warlord.
Sounds kinda fun, I do enjoy a welding torch.
