How would you survive the zombie apocalypse?

Lol same. Get a Peashooter and your sorted  

There's a Plants vs Zombies 3 now. Downloaded it this evening.

Love your replies on this and war of the worlds 

zombies.. if they are the slow traditional kind thatd be ok.

at first, id likely remain in my flat, although its on the edge of town within the town boundaries so fairly populated but off to a side on a private road that likely can be blocked or fortified perhaps and can limit flow of zombies to smaller amount here. but id likely be too lazy to not do that at first. id likely not do anything until society has clearly broke down and the violence and zombies are everywhere, if control and society is still there id remain in my flat. if society is broke down id likely go to my parents and ensure they are safe, as i have good enough martial arts training to be satisfied with my own safety but untrained people move and make too many mistakes so  my parents being not trained would be vulnerable so id go there to ensure they are safe... then move to a less populated space, maybe on the coast with a option to live out of a yacht as a yacht would give you a safe place to sleep with no night time incursions while your vulnerable combined with ability to move your yacht and flee overseas or to a island. thats the optimal goal, to get a yacht. id only likely do that if i was looking after parents thought.

if i had no parents or no one to look after, id likely stay in my flat, id be too lazy to fortify the road at first but id fortify and ensure the communal flat stairway is blocked and no unthinking zombie could just wander up. id also doubt the ability of a zombie to bash through my locked firedoor anyway if one did through the communal door and up the communal stairs. so my flat maybe somewhat safe.... but later id look at the communal grounds and private road and see i need to clear it out and secure it somehow. which would be what id work on, and make my flat complex and its grounds and road into a fortress. my weapons of choice would likely be melee weapons, long pole arm weapons i can find i have a idea of a few places that might have some. saying that i gave my old bo staff to my parents and thats a really solid dense stick. either way i think it would be a piece of cake for me if i dont have anyone to worry about and protect.

I'd like to think that all the time I spent playing Plants Vs Zombies has given me useful skills for such a situation.

Have you seen the tv series “Zomboat

I loved that series.  Especially the relevation on how the apocalypse started, with flu vaccine trials going wrong.

With bloody good reason. (excuse my french!)

Farmers are protesting across Europe. 

It’s creative and as I have just said in roughly 24 hours my next topic will be hint war of the worlds more details will be shared tomorrow 

Ok you lovely lot I wasn’t going to do this but I’ve changed my mind tomorrow’s topic well here a hint war of the worlds so get your thinking caps on because in 24 hours time it will be war of the worlds 

At least you have a plan! And it sounds less like hard work and more enjoyable than mine.

Pleasantly surprised by your reaction, I thought I'd get told off for being too bleak!

Love your plan I’m just planning a on getting fat on cupcakes 

I don't have all the full details worked out, but my personal transport would need to quickly become a stolen excavator with a lot of grilles welded over the windows and sharp blades welded to the bucket, and my first stop would be a shop that sells 12 bore guns and ammo followed by some swift work with a hacksaw... 

Currently a huge war is being fought in the "breadbasket of Europe" AKA Ukraine at the same time as politicians are quietly shutting down the means of food production across Europe by means of withdrawing subsidies and "nitrogen quotas". Due to the relatively recent adoption of JIT (Just In Time) logistics, which does make the freshest of food much more widely available there is no large scale warehousing of staples, so when those actions catch up with us, it will happen very rapidly indeed. It is widely believed in academia that total societal breakdown (AKA the Zombie Apocalypse) is only three meals away! 

As Gonzalo Lira used to tell us, "Understand what's going on.."  

Have you seen the tv series “Zomboat”?

that’s the way forward.

I see your point 

It's high energy, so you can use all those calories running from your fate 

How would that help you survive lol 

I would eat cake... and lots of it.

I live about 500m away from a huge cemetery, so if it's a traditional dead rising from their graves deal I'm done before we even know it's started.
