Meh. Stock up on crowbars, axes, hammers, screwdrivers, etc. Drive into the hills and away from the cities, stock up on as much canned food and water I can cram into my tiny ass car. I don't have a gun nor know how to use it, but I'd probably try and kill a cop zombie at some point after the outbreak. Then only use it on myself if it looks like it be eaten alive.

Otherwise I'd try to live a quiet secluded life reading books, attempting to garden, fish, and trap small game animals. All while mourning my loved ones while waiting for the weight of the depression to finally convince me life isn't worth living in such a state. Hopefully that takes a good long while, but yknow...that's unlikely.

I'd likely die of starvation or dehydration before the zombies got me, unless we're talking sprinters...then no way.

I used to play Project Zomboid. The game mechanics make the learning difficulty high and you have to start from the beginning if you die...and there is no plot nor point to the story other than just survive in a world where you are the sole survivor of a zombie outbreak. It forces you into thinking like this often the longer you play. Amazing game, but very depressing.

You say you used to play PZ... I recommend checking out the Week One mod with the new unstable branch of B42. Breathes some life into the world prior to the apocalypse occurring.

If possible, just get in my family's van and get into a big enough accident that I die. I ain't living in any form of zombie apocalypse if I have the choice.

I'd order the sweater with the text "the hardest part about a zombie apocalypse is pretend I'm not excited".

Extra fast shipping I guess, or click and collect somewhere

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

When I order nationally it ships today, arrives tomorrow. When I order from a neighboring country it takes 1 to 2 days longer. Just don't order from China.

Like all the zombies on Lemmy... Slap them harder until they wake up and stop being zombies?

[-] Sorolainen@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

Well... My health conditions mean that I am unlikely to survive long term after apocalypse. Even if no zombies get me. The first week would be fine, the first month maybe, but I wouldnt be alive to see the second year. I could try to do a camping trip to see if the "apocalypse" passes over quickly. If not, then there is no point trying to plan for long term survival.

I don’t presume to know your conditions but assuming you need some medicine, maybe you could buy some chemicals and make it yourself? But no sounds like a rough spot, wishing you well

[-] nesc@lemmy.cafe 5 points 1 day ago

I will join the army at last. My zombies are regular semi-slow ones, not magical.

[-] GoofSchmoofer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

The number of people that would go to the woods makes me think that staying in a city would be a better option.

Book a long, long transatlantic or transpacific cruise that is leaving today or tomorrow morning. Bring as much as I can carry and a life straw and bunch of filters.

I would not prepare anything because I know I would get caught the second it started

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Same, I would just download a lot of shit for whoever raids my house.

There's a dedicated community for discussing this exact topic

!zombiesurvival@sopuli.xyz

[-] kalkulat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I'd learn to speak zombie. Doesn't take long, it's mostly throat noises. And walk like a zombie, just pretend a horse kicked you in the ass yesterday.

Get a new axe. Probably some non perishable food and water.

[-] Dil@is.hardlywork.ing 2 points 1 day ago

Id give up so fast, id maybe try to survive, but my plan would include getting bitten and somehow being immune to the brain damage making myself immortal, either that or die

[-] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

My bugout bag and axe are ready so I guess I'd just stock up on ammo.
