If the apocalypse came how would you deal with it? I suppose it depends on what kind of apocalypse, so specify your response based on the apocalypse of note. Off the top of my head I can think of a few...

-zombie apocalypse
-deadly disease kills 90%+ or all people and you're a survivor
-nuclear holocaust
-the Russians invade (I watched "Red Dawn" last week. WOLVERINES!)
-economic collapse precipitates complete societal collapse a la Mad Max

My first move, Wal-Mart. Hopefully a Wal-Mart supercenter. You control Wal-Mart you control the new world. You've got guns, food, and tradeable goods. The Wal-Mart near here has a gas station, that's the trifecta. The only that could be better would be a Wal-Mart attached to some sort of mall, be it strip mall or standard mall. They will be the castles of the future apocalyptic world.

The next best thing would be a library. Books would suddenly be valuable again, and libraries tend to be very sturdy, stone buildings. You need to know how to fix a car, there's a book on it, and so on. Plus the crappier ones could be burnt for heat or used as TP.

I'm not in Korea yet so I'm not sure what I'd do there. Probably hop a freighter, I will be in Pusan. In fact, in the zombie apocalypse, a large boat would be the best option, I don't think zombies swim.

You remember the stories John use to tell us about the the three chinamen playing Fantan? This guy runs up to them and says, "Hey, the world's coming to an end!" and the first one says, "Well, I best go to the mission and pray," and the second one says, "Well, hell, I'm gonna go and buy me a case of Mezcal and six whores," and the third one says "Well, I'm gonna finish the game." I shall finish the game, Doc.

It's my contention that the Rapture has already happened (Take that, Pat Robertson and the Pope!) and all of us still here are the poor schmucks who bet on the wrong horse.

What does it matter... it's all over.

If I could I'd move back to Canada to my parents' chicken farm. There's a huge garden, lots of chickens, lots of land and a wood stove. Plus there's a nice river that flows through the back. There are also lots of guns in them parts.

If I were stuck in Korea I would eat poison and die.

If you were vaporized by a nuclear bomb, would you get to know what it felt like, or would you not know because you wouldn't exist so there would be no way to be able to know or recollect, though you would possibly know as it happened; but, would there even be a moment of conscious feeling?

[Czarjorge]

If death only takes a moment, then why would dying in a nuclear blast be any different?

Jaz, if society collapsed you would just give up? That's sad.

forget walmart! its straight to the car lot and finding myself a ferrari
then its house hunting! the food around will all still be good for a couple days.. so Ill spend my time looking for a generator and getting power...
stocking up the freezer with meats, fish etc... frozen pizza too.. gotta have the pizza! hahahhaha then im chilling driving around with my guns and my dog! and then I AM LEGEND!! my style...

[Czarjorge]

Problem is, the food rots, and the power goes, then it's just canned goods. Or, if you have a generator, like the ones I'll have at Wally World.

Plus, the people who work at Wal-Mart tend to be followers, so when they slowly trickle back I have an army. Wal-Marts are surrounded by all kinds of pavement, that's alot of land to cross in an assault. Plus the one here has two big box stores, one a hardware and another with clothing. Man, I'm starting to hope for it...

Wally World is just too hard to defend against a zombie horde. So many openings. Too much glass. Too easy a target for marauders. Plus it would be difficult to keep well lit. I don't think suffocation would be a problem but if you have to run the generator inside then you'd die real quick.

This is my family "zombie plan". Yes, the stereotype is true; all Americans since 1970 have a zombie plan. And they have spent considerable time (I.E. 15 minutes or less) devising it.
1) Arm thyself with anything sharp
2) Head to the nearest gun shop for firearms. If any dead cops/troops/hicks are along the way, take their guns.
3) Head for high ground (if inland) or to an island (if coastal) or to a swamp (if in the South)
4) Gather food supplies along the way and avoid contact with anybody.
5) Establish a base camp on an island, a prison, or an abandoned military outpost or mountain mansion/fire ranger station.
6) From whereever you are in the world, ascertain where your relatives would have gone. That is the direction you start killing zombies in. Pick a point about halfway the distance between that point and leave a path of anti-zombie devastation in your wake.
7) When you get to that point, start killing in a circular path. Eventually, you or your relative will come upon the piles of bodies you have left in your wake.

The plan stays the same for nuclear holocaust or societal collapse.

In the event of alien invasion- turtling might be wise. IF the aliens are recruiting, sign up. Why? Because we know how to pick a winner.

Okay...

Are these original Night Of The Living Dead walking corpses, or supernatural running and jumping zombies like Dawn of the Dead 2004/ Return of the Living Dead.

Cuz both require a different game plan.

[itaewonguy]

first couple days you work 24/7 you find a huge truck, raid walmart and stock up your house, which happens to be the PENTHOUSE of a huge building.. you install major secruity and start welding!
you find weapons! all sorts, tanks, rocket launcers, you figure out how to fly a black hawk and sit it on the top of your PENTHOUSE! in case the zombies figure out you are up there and are smart enough to get through your booby traps, worst case you lift off, and blow the roof with the C4 you spend days attacting to the building, that baby will go down like the twin towers! and you fly to the next building and start again hahahahaa
