Zombies are everywhere!

My first big problem will be wiping the smile off my face. Yeah! Zombies!
Next I will need to find some absurdly hot chick who would never talk to me in real life (most of them) in dire need of rescuing, then perform said rescue, thereby earning her trust as well as igniting the fire in her loins.
Then steal the most bad-*kitten* car I can find, cruise past the mall shaking my head at all the dummies who thought they could defend such a large structure.
I haven't thought much further ahead though...definetly no farmhouse, that's just stupid. I mean, you need walls, right? How did they ever think they would hold out there??? The prison is genius though. Of course, if you're going to go prison, you're probably better off to go to a military base instead. More ammo for the aforementioned double-taps. If there isn't a military base nearby (and I really should look into that first) I'd just take my bad-*kitten* car, hot chick, and 8 kitties to the airport and steal a bad-*kitten* plane and fly wherever there is a base.
Actually the hardest part will be that I'll have to catch my 8 kitty-cats to take them with me, I'm not leaving my kitties. Have you ever tried to catch 8 cats and put all 8 of them in 1 cat carrier? Hmmm. I may have to think this through a little better.0 -
assuming i still have power, I would having out in my hot tub with my shot gun.
I am in Alaska, how many zombies would i really have up here....seriously. Not to mention this state has more guns per capita then any other.....life would go on like normal lol0 -
How do you think the zombie apocalypse will come about? I Am Legend? The Crazies? Out of nowhere? Do you have your own crazy theory?

Throw my pistols, ammo, some canned food, water proof matches, a whetstone, a knife and as many bottles of water as I could in a back pack. Grab a bat and head out to find a katana (ala Michonne). Then work towards the coast, avoiding groups of survivors if at all possible. Should that prove to be inevitable, keep it small, and limited as much as possible to the most capable, least needy people. Get to the coast, grab a map, grab a boat, find an island.

I live in CT and off the coast of CT is Plum Island where West Nile and Lymes Disease originated from. (Yes they are man made)....so if an apocalypse happens...it may be from there and I'll be one of the first to turn!! :laugh:
I love Walking Dead and zombies and I've thought of this before. I live on the 2nd floor of a condo building in a secured entrance. With a gated under the building parking area. How safe it is? Who knows. I have two boys though and my first thought is always what would I do to protect them.
No guns. I have some bolt cutters and knives! Shrug!0 -

I think this topic should have more replies than "these forums have been sickening lately" and quite frankly, I'm sorely disappointed that there aren't.
TO KEEP THIS BALL ROLLING:
You meet a guy (or girl) who you coincidentally fall into deep love with (whether its because of your daily life or death situations, or you're really soul mates bound to be together through destruction is irrelevant). You're going to make love - but evidently everyone looted the condoms. Do you proceed to risking pregnancy, or do you do what you can to prevent this? See: THE WALKING DEAD.
Depends. Did we decide we are going to repopulate the earth? If so, then no protection needed. On the other hand, if we don't want to, or just don't want to yet cause things aren't stable enough and it too hard to run pregnant/with a baby, then the deed'll have to wait. I am sure there is plenty other things that are needing to be done in the mean time. There is no way I will ever fall for a lazy man again.0 -
I think women would have it *so* much worse during a zombie apocalypse.0

How do you think the zombie apocalypse will come about? I Am Legend? The Crazies? Out of nowhere? Do you have your own crazy theory?
A virus is pretty plausible, me thinks. We have different strains of viruses, new strains, coming out and going around constantly. One just happens to have a different kind of side effect. "Please beware: the H1N2 virus going around appears to be like nothing we have seen before. If you contract this virus, chances are you will die. You may even continue to walk after you are dead."
For a zombie virus to sucsessully manifest worldwide, the turn would have to be instantaneous in 85% of people, and have a multi day incubation period in the other 15% of people- to allow them to get on planes and such.
I've read that zombies are an inherently flawed species because their largest predator is also their food source and their only means of reproduction.0 -

Zombie reproduction....gross.
According to a 2009 Carleton University and University of Ottawa epidemiological analysis, an outbreak of even Living Dead's slow zombies "is likely to lead to the collapse of civilization, unless it is dealt with quickly." Based on their mathematical modelling, the authors concluded that offensive strategies were much more reliable than quarantine strategies, due to various risks that can compromise a quarantine. They also found that developing a cure would merely leave a few humans alive, since this would do little to slow the infection rate.
On a longer time scale, the researchers found that all humans end up turned or dead. This is because the main epidemiological risk of zombies, besides the difficulties of neutralizing them, is that their population just keeps increasing; generations of humans merely "surviving" still have a tendency to feed zombie populations, resulting in gross outnumbering. The researchers explain that their methods of modelling may be applicable to the spread of political views or diseases with dormant infection.0 -
I think I would. As long as I can survive that first insane three months, I should be OK.I have a two story house.
Gather all of the food, water, guns, ammo, ect and bring them upstairs.
Destroy the outside staircase and barricade the inside one and simply hold out.
You would not survive the Zombie apocalypse.
I currently have enough food and water to last a year for my entire family.
I have way too much ammunition but, it is hard to say I have enough to last for X amount of time. That depends on how much shooting I need to do.
I figure the first three months will be the worst. After that, things should slow down a bit and I can remove the barricade from the staircase (spiral staircase BTW. Zombies can't climb it I don't think) and start on the re-enforcement of my home perimiter.0 -
Imagine you wake up one morning and it's eerily quiet, and/or crazy havoc outside (depending on where you live). You look out of the blinds/curtains and zombies are EVERYWHERE! What do you do?
I would stay inside for probably a month SILENTLY so that everyone could get done killing and looting one another (because a 90" TV is really important when the world is ending ~ see 90% of zombie movies :P ).
We have come up with a plan to raid the nearest farm shop (seeds), book store ( books on farming/ medicine) and the pharmacy for drugs and then head out onto the moors. We even had a name for those who looted- 'TV nickers cos as you've said a tv wont get you anywhere in the post zombie world.0 -

I've read that zombies are an inherently flawed species because their largest predator is also their food source and their only means of reproduction.
I've read a book where the zombie apocalypse is brought on by parasites. They feed off the body then animate it to be able to find a new host to feed from, kind of like those zombie ants that are real.
My survival method; I've seen/read a couple of examples where if you cover yourself in zombie (gross, I know) or eat them (double-y gross!) then the smell you let off is as one of them. It's worth a try if you can walk freely with zombies! Gives you the chance to escape to somewhere safe, especially if there are a lot of surrounding zombies.
Maybe try my theory out by convincing someone you don't like to try it out first...

Am I considered a zombie if I occasionally eat women?
hahaha
This made my day0 -
For UK people - you know there is an amazing street chase game so you can test how you would do in an ACTUAL zombie apocalypse...?
http://www.2.8hourslater.com/
Absolutely amazing - I always thought I would totally be a survivor... but I got INFECTED. Must train harder!!
But I urge you all to try it when it comes to a town near you - it's brilliantly done and you will absolutely scare yourself silly.0 -
I'd go to my island and live there.0

It depends. Are they the slow moving zombies like from Walking Dead? Or the fast moving ones like from World War Z.0

I would try to get to the coast as quickly as possible, find a boat, get off land as quickly as possible. I live 2 hours from the coast, and even if we're talking about zoombies (fast zombies) they aren't going to be swimming a mile off shore to come get me.
Fishing pole + desalinator + sailboat = long-term win.
Find an island or a well secured/fenced marina or port and you could make yourself a pretty good life there, with no chance of ever being surrounded.
If I am stuck on shore in a 'The Walking Dead' situation, I would not run around firing guns to sound the dinner bell for every zombie in a 3 mile radius if I could help it. I would get/make myself a spear and shield. Spear is long hand to hand range, easy targets,silent, simple to use against a zombie target, easy head shot every time, easy to make/improvise, easy to use safely in a choke-point like a hallway/doorway/window/fence. The Spartans had a pretty good idea!
Does nobody else get seriously annoyed watching TWD, knowing that if they had a sharp, sturdy stick and a chain-link fence you could literally clear the entire prison by yourself in a day?
In all honesty though, if you get caught in traffic, and the Z's are in traffic with a bunch of crazed people, you could have a SWAT team with you and your just going to get pulled down in time like everyone else.0 -
I'm just gonna stay this close to Daryl! He is so bad *kitten*! 0 -
I LOVE zombie films and all thing related.
My partner and I have discussed this before (in jest), we would stay indoors for a while as there's always food in the freezer and let everyone outside battle it out. We would keep an eye on the news and radio to listen out for possible 'safe zones'. We wouldn't bother to find any family or friends as it's always other people that let you down in the films. :laugh:
However, if they were the zombies in 28 days later or even worse, World War Z, I would probably just cry in a corner and lose control of all my bodily functions.0 -
Plan B would be to gather the family and retreat to Peanut Island. (google it.
Peanut Island Riveria Beach)
It is close to the West Palm Beach inlet so the strong currents should sweep away any walkers out into the Atlantic.
Plus, the old JFK bunker is there just in case I need to hunker down for a while...0 -
It seems that almost everyone plans to find an island.
I picture numerous boats lining the coasts of the islands and lots of people.
Either running out of resources super quickly, becoming more like the show Lost instead of The Walking Dead or someone dying from some other cause, turning and the disaster starts over.0 -
Calling all you fit and fab MFP'ers to get your food, hatchet, and weapon of choice and join me on a tour bus ride with the Partridge Family to the nearest Island. It will be easy to guard. We get to take turns shooting zombies (swimmers) in the surrounding water...and let there be coconuts and pineapple

Even if you just stay off coast on a boat and go ashore to forage, at least you have a secure place to sleep and recover. If the area isn't a good scene, just sail on up/down the coast and find a better area.
Still though, whenever I see slow zombies sticking their heads through doors/windows/fences, I just think "Spear, spear, spear, SPEAR!!!"
Zoombies are infinitely more scary though.0 -
