Theyre coming to get you, HDC
I'm the kind of guy that WISHES some kind of zombie apocalypse would occur, I've got my own gameplan for if and when...I'm not obsessed to the point of stocking up crazy amounts of supplies or anything, but I'm pretty sure I'd make it through, and bust heads along the way....shit, I'd make SURE of that.
Of course, I can't say I'd like the potential of my loved ones getting eaten and becoming undead...and furthermore, would be sickened by the possibility of having the choice of when to put one of them down....but aside from that unpleasantness, I think I'd deal with it rather well, as would anyone who stuck with me, and yes, I REALLY want this...of all things fucked up that could wipe out a large part of earth population, this is the one I wanna live to see, bring it, fuck yeah. But anyway, enough of the bragging about my mad zombie skillz. So...what do you guys think the actual potential of something zombie-like happening is? My take is that it seems possible, if not likely. News reports of supposed early voodoo type stuff successfully raising the (although more or less brain-dead) dead for transport/work, whateverthefuck that was about, dogs successfully bought back from "death", and I seem tovaguely recall reading something up in here about bodies reanimating after a certain incident...among other things...seems that it's becoming more likely over time. Not to mention stuff that has occurred to me personally, now I don't wanna get all "conspiracy theorist" on ya, but I'm pretty sure that someone, somewhere in the world is working on a way to pull the whole zombie thing, and make it work. Maybe not with the specific intent to "infect" people, but definately as some type of weapon, even if only to inflict damage...don't wanna step on toes here, but hey, this kinda shit could eliminate the need for "suicide bombings", or fighting ones own battle. I can only guess that these things could take more damage than your average LIVING human. I just find it almost unfathomable that there's NOT someone, if not numerous people, and numerous organisations, of numerous lands, working to do just this. Then there's the whole viral possibility. We've seen some scary, badass viruses out there...and they mutate, change forms to suit them best, try to get past our biological defenses in so many ways...not only us, but any living creature on this earth can fall victim. Being as it is that so many viruses can mutate (I mean shit - has anyone here actually researched the "bird flu" thing...it's FUCKED UP)...it's not all that far fetched that one could eventually have the ability to take control of motor functions, and live in a more symbiotic relationship with a living host, even if only in a very simple way. So, assuming this scenario ever occured...a bite or abrasion would be a good way for this virus to transmit itself, or, it could even be through close proximity...scary possibility there. Sure, when we look at viruses and bacteria...etc, they seem more simple than that...but, they evolve, and they evolve FAST, all things considered. It could be all manner of potential catalysts that could make this possibility actually occur, exposure to certain events, radiation, environment, even viral fusion is a distant, but not alltogether impossible scenario, it just hasn't happened YET. So yeah...my fellow zombie enthusiasts... Am I the only one that's totally up for a fucked up zombie apocalypse? Are you guys ready? What do you think the potentials are for something of this nature to actually happen? Discuss. |
I always believed that raising the dead is possible. But when the dead raise are they really hungry for human flesh? I doubt that. As for Viruses and Bacteria. That seems like a possibility. Although if a Virus was created to make people extremely violent, and could be obtained by anything from breathing in an infected persons air to an infected persons blood or bacteria in thier blood going into your bloodstream. This would cause the Virus to grow extremely fast.
Just my thoughts... |
I woudn't say I want it to happen nor would I say I'm ready but I do have 2 guns in my house and I'm pretty fast, so I guess I'd be ok for awhile at least.
I don't think it's likely but it's possible. |
it would be cool... minus everybody dying

Have you taken this quiz?
http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?te...89821747660792 I survived. Barely... Staci |
I'm glad that i'm not the only one who has t hought about it. Me and a friend also have a game plan if it ever does happen. I live about 45 mins from pittsburgh, were the great Romero is from :-) So I am obsessed with all of his movies, bring it you dead fucks !

Did pretty well, thank you Zombie Survival Guide.

I forsee a 28 Days Later type scenario happening more than the dead rising from the grave although it would be kind of kool.
I took the test. Did better than 96% of people my age and gender. I live in the stix what can I tell ya. Its funny because I have been thinking alot lately of the idea of a disaster on a mass scale and being prepared for it. Lets look at it this way. Iran is close to or already has nuclear capabilities. Israel is not going to stand for that and probably attack Iran. This in turn will piss off the rest of the middle east and more than likely Russia, China and the like and then of course the USA will defend Israel and then the shit hits the fan. Doesnt matter where you live, its going to affect all of us. Personally I would like to be around for the aftermath at least for a little while. |
