Lowdark 5613 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 We could hide on Parliament Hill while Parliament is sitting. The last place any self respecting zombie would look for functioning brains is Parliament. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kubrickfan 12836 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 You forgot to mention one of the coming signs in the US is Obama getting elected. Maybe I'm thinking of Socialism, not Zombies, but its really kinda similar. My weapons of choice, being a God-fearing U.S. citizen and a member of the NRA are things that go boom. I think you need a head shot, right? (smile) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kate von Katz 49953 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 I'm a bit of a berserker, and I'd be out there with a couple of machetes hacking and slashing with a small group. As for a hide-out? I'd opt for taking the time to build tree-houses. With a group of a dozen or so, we could get the basics done in a few days. To get them comfortable will take a few weeks, but eventually they'd be comfortable, roofed, with rope ladders that will allow us to sleep easy knowing the zombies can't get to us. Come winter we'll probably migrate to some local abandoned mines and hole up there. Then come back for some spring-time zombie slaughtering! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 It has been suggested that a small force take over a Walmart or a Costco. Barricade the doors. Plenty of food. Lots of cool things to use for weapons. There's usually a Mickey D's. Use the excess soil and seeds at the garden centre to create a rooftop garden. I think we would need a variety of weapons. Things that go boom for crowd dispersal, sharp things for zombie singles. As for the crowd? We would need plumbers, lumberjacks, medical personnel, SPs, soldiers, farmers, and geeky kids that spend their time playing World of Warcraft. Avoid Parliament Hill. I do think that the Senate may be populated by Zombies (the slow moving kind.) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lowdark 5613 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 You'd probably want to get out of the city too. Where would you find the most zombies? And most of our infrastructure would collapse in a matter of a few weeks or even days without constan human attention. Fewer threats, possibly more fodd, cleaner water out in the country.

SamanthaEvans 166767 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 Old Dog, the Zombie Apocalypse must not be bad for business! In uncertain times, paid companions have traditionally helped to relieve stress, provide hope, improve men's sense of prowess, etc. Personally, I'm stocking up on clean sheets, condoms, lubricants, bondage and discipline equipment, as well as various toys. I'm happy to advise that I have friends who are avid breeders and trainers of hamsters who will merrily run generators, as required, to re-charge sex toy batteries. I would advise the gentlemen here to become adept at using e-mail money transfers rather than take the risks associated with waiting at bank machines before visiting their companions. Meanwhile, the ladies will develop screening methods to secure against zombies attempting to pose as potential clients. E-mail correspondence may become de rigeur, since zombies are not known to be able to write, let alone use computers. The Internet, of course, will continued to be powered by hamsters, mice and trained rats. As always. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In uncertain times, paid companions have traditionally helped to relieve stress, provide hope, improve men's sense of prowess, etc. That's what I was thinking!!!! Let's face it, even with hamsters gerbils and guinea pigs, power will be running low. Using the leverage of power, SPs could become virtual queens of the human hives, making men happy and brokering highly desired services for protection, food, weapons and the most zombie proof locales. Could a telemarketer do that??? NooooOOOOoooOOOOOOooo. I am also thinking that steel workers, tool and die makers and surgeons could come in handy. Zombies would be hard pressed to get at your BRAINSSSSssSSSs if everyone had a shiny new steel plate installed in their skulls.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In uncertain times, paid companions have traditionally helped to relieve stress, provide hope, improve men's sense of prowess, etc. Maybe we should also arrange zombie companions to keep the zombies happy? Zombies need love too, you know. And having got their rocks off, it may be that the zombies will be more peaceable and less of a threat to the rest of us... or at least, easier to knock off. Although given that payment is likely to be in brains, larger and more waterproof envelopes may be required. Meanwhile, the ladies will develop screening methods to secure against zombies attempting to pose as potential clients. That's easy. All you do is leave some brains on a plate by the door. If your visitor shows significant interest, grab the shotgun. As for me, I'll be barricading myself in the nearest pub. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we are dealing with fast zombies, the change will occur quickly... so you can trust your steel plate technician. I am thinking of using lawyers and customer service representatives as bait... we could send them on impossible missions to draw the zombies away from our anti zombie fortress.... like having them run over to the hardware store for "specialized" parts for Tratelle's anti zombie tanks and artillery.

Mikeyboy 27133 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 OK. Anyone who is serious about surviving this has to read the Zombie Survival Guide written by Max Brooks. http://www.polvoestelar.com.mx/babilonia/Libros/Max%20Brooks/Max%20Brooks%20-%20The%20Zombie%20Survival%20Guide.pdf It covers weapons and combat techniques, how to avoid them and how to attack them. It's a long read but it could potentially save your life. Good luck everyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qwertyaccount 15793 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 Thank you for bringing this to my attention - I need to start getting prepared right away! Can zombies swim? What are there temperature limits - do they hate heat and/or cold, or are they flexible? We could move to the north pole where is it daylight 24/7. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted August 27, 2011 I would think they can swim... or at least walk under water like the ones in the pirates of the Caribbean. That's where we could set a trap!!!! We move to islands in the great lakes or the St Lawrence, hold them off until winter and then trap them under the ice... starve them out. Of course this will not work if they are the fast smart zombies that will wait until the waters freeze and them simply walk over to chew upon our grey matter. We should horde water, Kraft Dinner and non-microwave popcorn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
