    at least you wouldn't have to pay anymore bills or worry about the government :D

    That's what I was thinking.

    In a strange way, I think that I would probably be happier in many ways than I would be in the rat race.

    It's so much simpler- forget saving for your retirement, paying bills, getting to work on time, dealing with asshat bosses and coworkers, shitty toxic relationships and searching for meaning in your life.

    All of that would become dogshit.

    First, the 'zombie apocalypse' will probably never happen. More likely are world nuclear devastation, random wars over resources, or severe world-wide depression/starvation due to people being unable to stabilize their population through birth control. Or possibly a combination of the three.

    It is like anything else in life. You deal with it the best you can, until you die of old age, or get killed randomly through things beyond your control, and if you can't deal with it - then don't.

    I'd probably follow the steps of Lee. Find a kid, And use it as a bait for my escape out of America and to Russia!
    :MeGusta:.
    And, A zombie apocalypse will surely happen. One day or the other, IT WILL.

    We're all giving a "I would" statement if we imagined ourselves in the situation that many of the characters in TWD universe are facing, but trust me, things will be far from how you guys predicted yourselves to be.

    I'm a Psychology student, not bragging, but after what I've gone through in my first year, I no longer made "I will" statements if I were to be pitted in any situations. Thing is, we will react differently when the real stuffs happens.

    Although, if you asked me to imagine, I think I'll pretty much run at first sight of a walker, and I'll be one of them millions or billions of people to die being eaten alive by one.
    Chances are slim that I'll commit suicide, unless I'm driven to the brink of despair.

    Else, I'd pretty much like to toughen up and be one of them Asians who survives the ZA, gun some zombie brains down and have the opportunity to survive every damn fatal situation.

    Hehe, we had this discussion before. I'm a paramedic and the consensus was that I'd be dead in the first few hours of an outbreak lol!

    Would anyone really want to survive a zombie apocalapse?!

    Everything we have read, watched and listened to pretty much states that it would be a living hell. If they don't die in the outbreak, you will probably have to watch your family and friends die at some point, you may even have to off them yourself to prevent them turning.

    Everyone you meet could be a potential rapist, murderer, psycho. And everyone meeting you would think the exact same thing. Forming a group with strangers would be near impossible.

    Raising a family would be near impossible as you would be unlikely to find somewhere stable enough to raise children, and how screwed up will they be living in that nightmare?

    Plus if you get lucky and live to a ripe old age, you just die and become a walker.

    If a ZA happened that would be it for us as a species. Those thinking they could survive it would just be postponing the inevitable end of mankind.

    Now there is a cheerful message for the beginning of the week!

    Good point. But if the military decides to evacuate, NO. You could be a hero, For surviving such bullshit.
    Raising a family is Possible in a zombie apocalypse. Kenny Survived for months. Too bad it all ended wrong. But, It's not easy yet not really really hard.

    And You'd survive at the end. Good always prevails.

    As long as you don't forget to bring your towel, you're fine.


    Also, f¤#k South Park. Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy is where the towels are at.

    Pretty much this. Do I have the skills and fortitude to survive? Yes. But it's the factors I can't predict that would probably get me. Knowing my luck I'd sprain my ankle trying to save a kid or something and get chomped on.

    you never know, some of the people that say they can survive, might just crack under the pressure

    Truthfully I dont know i think my military training would keep me calm then the adverage person. But then it comes down to reaction time plus in the zombie apoc you have to move and not be in denial whats going on around you.

    All I know is the guy who made the save Carley facebook fan page will commit suicide when his family dies. Not saying he will live that long though. ^_^
