    What to do in the event of a Zombie Apocalypse.

    THIS

    Home Depot. Just saying. Gardening section, everything you need to make a barricade, everything you need for makeshift weapons, and enough snack food to get you to the point where your own is growing out of the gardening center.

    No, I don't spend too much time contemplating this.

    Of course, Home Depot...it's beautifully simple...don't tell anyone else and neither will I, or there won't be enough snacks for everyone...

    Ooh! Ooh! I've got a couple! :-)

    - You need to drink AT LEAST the equivalent of an olympic-sized swimming pool every day in order to remain properly hydrated.
    - If you feel thirsty - IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE. Yes, this miracle of bio-engineering (sorry, creationists) just wasn't clever enough to incorporate an early warning system - kind of like a car designed with a fuel warning light that only comes on after the tank's empty.
    - If you feel hungry, you're probably just thirsty. You're just not intelligent to know the difference (despite the fact you've probably already downed at least 2 litres today), and it's got nothing to do with the fact you've survived on a couple of pieces of toast and some soup today because it's your friend's birthday this evening and you're going out for a meal. Trust me, another big ole glass of water will fill you right up!

    - You absolutely, positively, unequivocally must never, ever, ever even THINK about weighing yourself daily. Despite what you may believe to the contrary, you're obviously not emotionally equipped to deal with fluctuations, so don't come crying to me when the scale fluctuates upwards by a pound or two. Not that you'll be capable of movement - you'll be too busy curled up in the corner of the bathroom in a foetal position, sobbing uncontrollably. It's the mfp equivalent of looking in a mirror and saying "candyman" 3 times - simply not worth the risk.

    (Great topic OP and others - thanks for the laughs!)

    OMG!! This is about the most hilarious and true thing I have read on these forums. Kudos to you forposting it! I didn't read all the other stuff people have written, because I usually find it so discouraging. Hopefully this is NOT the case here!

    I love this post.

    I learned what skinny fat was, and that some people hate on that just as hard as being overweight - maybe even worse.

    I'm all about doing what works for you. What works for me still includes Taco Bell and wine. Life is good. :drinker:

    I'm a member of a great dane forum, and when someone starts taking offense to someone else, one of us will usually pop in and tell whoever is getting offended to put on the BGP's... Big Girl Panties. This is an online world, a lot of people will have differing opinions, some will fight tooth and nail to make someone believe their opinion is the best... Just don't fall into the trap of being offended.

    Hi Folks,

    Just a reminder that it's contrary to forum guidelines to re-hash old conflicts, issues, or user behaviors in the forums.
    6. No Intentionally Hurtful Topics

    Topics which are started with the intent to belittle others, either directly named or through enough descriptive commentary to be possibly identified, are prohibited. This includes stalking a poster through the forums, posting about past events gone sour, divulging personal information, or spreading gossip or rumors. At our discretion, any post referring to the behavior or posts of other users of the site will be removed.

    Due to the large number of posts in this thread that cross this line, I'm going to lock the thread rather than try to clean it up.

    Regards,
    Steven
