I found this on Cracked.com and thought it was interesting... If it does happen, will any of you be prepared? I will leave you with another zombie-related article from Exit Mundi, just for the hell of it. http://www.exitmundi.nl/zombies.htm I for one cannot wait until the Zombie Apocalypse happens. I imagine it will be just like the movies, wacky and zany adventures would ensue and at the end of the day... Actually... Everyone normally dies in those movies. That is kind of depressing, but the idea of riding around in a tank blowing up the walking dead is still very intriguing.
Oh, and for those who are interested in a Massively Multi-Player Web-Based Zombie Apocalypse, check out Urban Dead. I have not played it yet, but it could prove to be entertaining.
Ive got a perfect place. 10 feet away, over a high ass fence is a Walgreens, right next door to a liquor store..I have guns, but not enough ammo, so Id be short on that. Id def. have to start my own grow on my roof or something. Im not ready, not wary of it.
That is a good location. You'll need some kind of armored vehicle so you can travel around gathering supplies from those areas the vast majority of the undead have vacated. I suggest a tank, or failing that, some kind of modified anything.
If they can that is so totally cheating. The chances of surviving zombies that can run is... Uh... Probably less than 0. Unless of course you have some kind of remote fortress with weapons that would make the US military envious.
Have any of you guys ever seen the original Night of the Living Dead? I know that if they did this it wouldn't have made the plot better, but I always wondered why they didn't make a barracade ready UPSTAIRS instead of the basement. Obviously there would have been electricity and plugs to plug in the television. There is only 2 small windows and a door to barracade. All my other windows of the house are too high. Then I was going to start moving all the stuff I need to my bedroom. The awning to the back porch is right underneath the one window, so hopefully they aren't climbers lol. But yeah, if they are the running zombies, I would be screwed. I doubt my chair would go that fast. But if they are the "Romero" type zombies, I should be fine for awhile.
Learning how to tell zombie tracks from other less-threatening creatures is a useful skill. (Picture taken from a shirt on woot.com)
If the zombies come, I'm headed to the woods. I'll nail me some zombie-tourists from the tree tops and then high tail it to the wilderness, where I and a small band of misfits will survive to see the world reborn...
lol I've been preparing for the zombie infestation subconsciously my entire life. step 1) run to a walmart and ammo the fuck up, then get out quick because retail stores are normally in populated areas. step 2) get some motorcycles and/or pickup trucks with spikes on them, and then roam the streets battling the undead =P step 3) now that the government is gone, make a 200 acre marijuana farm and live the rest of my life endlessly high. You gots to be reading Max Brook's books "The Complete Zombie Survival Guide" and "World War Z". Hilarious reads, they're so literal you cant help but laugh.
I've never been too big on zombies... I liked the movie 28 Days Later though. I recently read the book "I Am Legend" (the last man on Earth trying to survive against vampire-zombies) in anticipation of the new movie, and I thought it was quite good. If something like that ever happened, I imagine I would barricade myself inside a house or building, stock up on supplies and generators, and ride it out until the zombies all killed each other, only coming out when I had to. What's even creepier than zombies in my opinion is walking around your town or any populated area and it being completely deserted of all people. It's hard to imagine civilization suddenly disappearing, but I think some part of me deep down inside would find it interesting and want to continue living whatever that may take. Edit... I would also probably grow a field of marijuana. Might as well get high even if you can't do much else. It would be awesome to just roam the city or the mountains with a big sack of green getting stoned wherever and whenever you want. Imagine just chilling at a cool lookout spot in the middle of your city smoking a fatty.
Does anyone remember the movie Toxic Zombies? Hippies grow marijuana that ends up getting sprayed with some sort of chemical that turns them into zombies.
lol, you cannot even trust other survivors, that seems like how the real situation would play out, though, so I guess it is all good. If I do start playing I will remember to shoot first and ask questions later, or never.
I hope the world does get attacked by zombies one day. I would love to see that, all these people panicked and trying to survive, only to be brutally and violently eaten and killed. I think it would be one of the best things to ever happen to our world.
So I don't get it...can't zombies catch diseases? Couldn't you just give them expired bologna or something? At least give em Paris Hilton, that'll wipe em all out.
