i talk a good piece about survivalism and what i'd do in a zombie apocalypse and all that
but aside from being exciting fiction it's horseshit
i'm only kept alive by carefully balanced medication and lacking true and dedicated pharmacutical production of the chemicals i need to function i'd turn into a batshit insane beast for the remaining days i have until my problems catch up to me and i'd die.
i'd last maybe a week or two without medication before my neuropathic pain and delirium would make me kill myself
i don't have any romantic notions about apocalyptic events that would turn the world into a road-warrior-esque badland where the only law is force
because the reality is i need the edifice of modern civilization to live and function without being more than an animal and to even live.
but it still makes for fun speculation and games and stuff
a zombie apocalypse would be good for me because it would turn me from a fat, abject failure into, a: undead killing machine devoid of human emotion or a soul, or b: bad-ass survivor tooling around the wasteland blowing deadites away and being awesome.
haha
no no, sir
you will walk outside to check your mail for your Naruto magazine subscription and some ding-dongs and you will watch your neighbor being eaten do death and you will stand there and stare and then shit yourself

which neighbors? some of my neighbors would probably be a bummer to see get eaten but if it's that old bitch next door i'd grab some little party poppers and it'd be confetti time.
also i don't like animu. :< ding dongs, however, are delicious.

he has a monthly subscription: Ding Dongs of the World. A different ding dong every month.

i realized the other day i got about two months worth of the medications i need to survive
in particular my gabapentin which will keep neuropathic pain from sending me into horrific seizures and shock
i don't know how much of a supply my girlfriend has of her meds.
without those meds, we don't function as human beings. in any kind of "apocalypse", pharmacutical production is one of those things that irreversibly stops. we'd both be fuckled as soon as our stuff ran out.
now, i mean, it wouldn't be hard to raid pharmacies and stuff to get what we needed... assuming we did it first, and didn't have to wade through a sea of diabetics and other people who realized around the same time that this is when they gotta loot to live.
and even then, that stuff all has expiry dates. eventually, no matter how much supply we have, our supply will expire and we'll be without
that's when it'd be all over, regardless of anything else.

I wouldn't say it with such confidence, Pony.
You really can't be sure of what you would do, given a state of constant potential danger and never having the chance to relax or plan your life out farther than days at a time.
You can be sure about certain difficulties and faults that would be way harder to manage without access to medication, but beyond that there's infinite variables and no way to be sure of anything, especially how well your mind could really handle a life where everything goes to Hell.

I'm the funny guy who is mostly useless but ends up sacrificing himself so that everyone else can live and I crack a joke just before I get eaten and the sad music plays
i also realize that in a grim and hopeless zombie apocalypse my girlfriend would probably not want to stick around this world too much longer
and the second she makes that decision, good bye any sort of rational action from me, i'd probably end it with her as after she'd be gone i'd be too fucked up to even care to keep going
yeah the idea of me in a zombie apocalypse is not that cool really

Honestly though I think I'd do the suicide pact thing with my girlfriend
Also I might go crazy and be running around in my trench coat and fedora yelling out shit like "Eat lead you stupid dame!" and "Die you silly flapper!"
Or I'd get decked out in my most gangsta apparel and blast rap music.
Or wear the army jacket in my closet and pretend I was a veteran of some war.
If the world turned into zombie hell tomorrow
I'd like to think that I would go out in a blaze of glory
Bitchin' tunes blasting from the radio
Shotgun in hand
And no pants
if you want to be a huge faggot and think about the crippling psychological breakdown and failure of willpower that would come from a hypothetical, impossible situation, go ahead
I'm pretty sure this thread is about the cool part where you kill people but they're not really people so it's morally resolvable
No, Goatmon, I'm pretty sure you don't find ways around going into shock
i could probably take alternatives to gabapentin. other medication to manage my neuropathic pain. hell, just keeping myself in a near-constant state of drunkeness would probably alleviate it enough that i'd not go insane from the pain.
but, all of those are temporary measures. the brain-crazy stuff? maybe i could manage. i've managed for years without psych meds, i could probably do it again.
but the neuralgia is a permanent problem. i am in constant nerve pain, even on the medication. off the medication, it's so bad i have seizures and go into shock.
so unless that somehow went away on it's own, i'd inevitably need something and if that stopped, i'd turn into a useless bag of shit quickly
Zombies in fiction are interesting to me but the idea of them existing for real terrifies me
I'll be playing Resident Evil or Dead Rising and I'll have to be near-constantly thinking "okay dude none of this shit is real or even at all possible" or every little noise I hear spooks the shit out of me
It's absolutely stupid and childish and I've never had this kind of reaction to anything else related to horror
Zombies just creep me out more than any other thing ever has, I guess

SEE I'M READY GOD WHY DID YOU PUT ME IN A ZOMBIE-LESS UNIVERSE

but any kind of long-term collapse of civilization and i'd be fucked
that's the reality
anything else is pure fiction
And I was all "man what about a private eye fighting zombies?"
It would be so cool.
which neighbors? some of my neighbors would probably be a bummer to see get eaten but if it's that old bitch next door i'd grab some little party poppers and it'd be confetti time.

Which one of you is the quiet religious guy that goes crazy?

hi
well hello miss austria.
ok. Unexpected, but ok.
Which one of you is going to fuck us all over by opening/not opening/leaving a door open somehow at somepoint?
I made a TD for iphone and windows phone!
I dodge that problem!
But really no after a couple days I'd be like f this and eat a bullet
I made a TD for iphone and windows phone!
I think I'd be fine
I made a TD for iphone and windows phone!
I'd be fucked
aka potu.
sup dogg
The one laughing out loud and having a jolly old time blowing away the undead.
I'd probably also have some music playing from somewhere, just enjoying the moment.
I kill a bunch, burn a bunch, then jump in the front and hit the juice in my ride.
Got makeshift turrets front, back, and side to side.

Killing shit to that seems appropriate somehow

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

Read books, sleep, keep a low profile. It'd be alright.
