    Are you ready for the zombie apocalypse? Where would you go? Which infected zombie would you get the most satisfaction from killing? Could you kill your infected wife? Or would you chain her up in your basement and feed her dead rats?

    Or would you load up your entire arsenal, walk out into the streets, and go out in a blaze of glory? Do you save the last bullet for yourself?

    Rule #1- Cardio, Cardio, Cardio

    I think I have that one covered.

    I'm gonna kill me a lot of zombies before I run out of ammo.

    Oh hell no - I would Will Smith them, at least take a bunch with me when I blew them up. :woot:

    Or, I would just get a large compound, secure it and grew my own food and just pick them off, they gotta run out sooner or later!

    From these responses, I gather you people are not prepared.

    I guess what type of zombies would be a major factor. Would it be the slow, dumb zombies of old, or would we be dealing with these new, fast, intelligent zombies? In the book World War Z, the zombies walked under water, so anchoring offshore on a yacht would not be safe either, not would constructing a moat work.

    Can the zombies climb? If not, I could see living in a remote fire tower out west as an option. But those areas are naturally arid, so I'm not sure how well you could grow food.

    Would thick snow slow zombies down? If so, moving far north, or far south could work, but then again, the food issue still arises.

    best bet far north is where my money would lie. cold enough where their limbs would break off with just the slightest kick/punch if they got in too close.

    clips are loaded and i plan to take as many with me as i can........

    You think you can survive like an Inuit in the far north? What if the seals become infected? What would you do for food?

    Zombies are not affected by the cold, so when you are huddled up in your little igloo during the winter, they could just come busting in and maul your ass.

    Mobility is the key to survival in this cruel world.

    yeah but they have all of that crap oozing from them i think it'd be harder for them to travel north, also less populated why go where the food is not? .... that black, grey stuff coming out of them would freeze and then comes the but kicking'. by the time they got to me they would be sooooooooo fragile

    If Zombies took over, the world would not be a fun place. I would just give up. I've had a pretty good run.

    But what about you? Could you survive in the far north without modern conveniences? It would suck to survive the zombies, only to freeze to death alone in cold, barren north.

    You mean, me and Woody wouldn't be traveling all over the US, killing zombies with shovels and eating twinkies? And I wouldn't find some emotionally damaged hot chick that I would get to have sex with after I show her how much of a badass I am?

    Crap.

    i'd need some help. i like it cold anyway but im sure i could pull my own weight helping out the locals. plus dying from the cold would be a heck of a lot better than having some rot-mouth take a hunk outta me.....

    And a .50 cal mounted on top.

    And steel tracks, not rubber tires.

    I guess I hadn't thought about that. Alright, I'm in. Just know that if I'm in, that chick won't be looking at you. Although, she did have a thing for the dork, so I guess you got a shot.

    Hell is going to be better than I thought.
