No can touch unless you're blonde and a state beauty contest winner. I'd definitely kill you and eat your body. Then take your beans. Cannibalism is so tempting but I'd feel bad eating nice people. Dicks on the other hand, I hear we taste like pork. | ||

Anyone who says zombies is a moron. Your idea of the good life is meeting new women all the time? what are you 12? | ||

A better question would be, if a zombie apocalypse actually broke out, would you rather fight to survive and live in such a terrible dystopian world, or just go quietly/give in to the zombies? This would really depend on the type of zombies and how good of a chance I have at surviving, but I think the likely answer is I'd enjoy all of the finer pleasures I have left before quickly committing suicide. | ||

A post zombie apocalypse world would be absolutely terrible and anyone who honestly says they would prefer that over the sheltered western life they're living now is delusional. Remember for every nerd who thinks they'd be a zombie-killing badass in such a scenario, there's about a thousand tougher guys who'd be just as ready to kick your ass, kill you, and take all of your food and supplies in a zombie crisis situation.

There is just as many people who think you are an idiot for wanting to live a sheltered western life. | ||

Very interesting, please elaborate on why I would be an idiot for preferring the former. | ||

We all have boring jobs from 9 to 5, commute to the city squeezed into trains filled to the max with other brainless suits. We all buy the 'cool' stuff that commercials suggest we absolutely need. And we all do the dirty work for the upper class, who enjoy their life in luxury without doing anything for our society that justifies it, other than being lucky to be born into it/having a office job that for some reason is 10.000 times more worth than the job of the hard working average guy, who ruins his back after 20-30 years and will have to live from a pathetic pension for the rest of his life. We all have the same boring dreams and spend our whole life with meaningless jobs. How is that any different from the zombie infested world? We already live in it, its just that we don't recognize it and well it contains a lot less blood and gore, but to be fair some guys smell really really bad..so they pretty much could already be dead. xD I think a life in a real zombie infested world would probably be more enjoyable than this. In the same way how the life in ancient ages was. Sure those times we're cruel and hard and now we have all these great tools that make life easier and everything is so great and meaningful.. (*cough* facebook *cough* twitter *cough*) Your life actually had a meaning. You would work hard, because you know you're resposible for your survival. Men could hunt and feel like men, when they bring home a big deer and had balls of steel, instead of coming home, telling your wife that you won't get a raise and will have to work overtime anyway, like a guy who had his sack cut off. Those small peaceful moments, the great feeling when you finally have a nice big meal certainly would make it more enjoyable, than chasing your dream, running after more and more money, to buy a house, a car, to fullfil meaningless social conventions and finally what will you answer when you ask yourself "what great things did I achieve in my life?" When the only thing you did, was sitting in a cubicle and selling insurances on the phone for 40 years..

Most are within a year, maybe 2. So now you know you only have 2 years untill all canned food is now useless to you... well unless you like dying to terrible terrible bacterial infections and such... Not true, while stuff like raw meat has a strict expire date, that isn't negotiable, most dry foods or canned goods can last for a very long time after the expire date. The reason for the expire date is that the company won't guarantee the integrity of the food beyond that point. Mainly to avoid law suits or bad rep, because certain parts of the food will degrade and cause the food to lose its taste and people would blame the company if stuff tastes like ♥♥♥♥ instead of what the picture on the can suggests. So you could live for a long time even on expired cans, although you have to cook them well and experiment to find out what stuff you can still chug down and what actually turned bad and upsets your stomach. Enough time to get proficient at hunting/fishing, finding edible stuff in the nature or growing your own food. I'm pretty sure you could even grab like a 100 year old bottle of beer from the bottom of the ocean and it would still get you buzzed fine, it just won't taste the way it should. | ||
