13110809, Favorite is zombies.
Posted by Sepia., Tue Jan-03-17 05:16 PM
Least favorite is martial law because I doubt I'd live to see the people uprise. Or I'd be too old to join in.
We're such a soft nation now, it'd take a long long time before We The People could get anything done. Also, white folks.


Anyway, I'm also not here for aliens. I just don't fool with alien abduction/invasion stuff.
I'd go crazy like dude on War Of The Worlds and be ready to shoot any and every thing that moved.


13110821, aw man, how did I forget aliens?

I don't know why I'm convinced learning coding is a major key for black people in any scenario

aliens are scary as fuck. I'd be trying to have sex with them depending how they look

13110825, Here is why Zombie Apocalypse sucks
Posted by ShinobiShaw, Tue Jan-03-17 05:51 PM
What they never feature on these zombie shows and movies are the following.

1. Water supply is fucked. You will die of thirst. Think about how infections work. There will be mad dead infected zombies dying and floating into he water supply. You would have to purify your water constantly.

2. The smell: dead bodies smell. really really bad. Everything would smell like dead body. Also flies and maggots everywhere on everything. Pretty sure you will die from being bit by a mosquito too.

3. Fast vs Slow zombies. The first few days all the zombies would be fast zombies. After decay starts kicking in they will slow down and eventually they wouldn't be able to move at all. This is how rigamortis works. The extended zombie apocalypse makes no sense because dead flesh decays at a rapid rate.
13110828, No such thing as fast zombies.
Posted by Sepia., Tue Jan-03-17 06:10 PM
If they're fast, they're not zombies -- they're Infected.

And if there is some kind of plague that turns its victims into aggressors
they probably won't be reanimated corpses but living Infected.

Rest of your points are good ones though.
13111285, Which is why "Z Nation" was some bullshit.
Posted by Shogun, Wed Jan-04-17 01:46 PM
Zombies runnin' five second 40's and shit.
13111305, unless it's a cold climate. Like Winter, I mean...

If it's winter or icy, then the bodies wouldn't rot ( as fast). AND the bacteria and insects, etc that feast on decaying bodies wouldn't grow in freezing temps. So you'd just have piles of bodies of frozen dead things.

13110829, my least favorite is the one where millions are kidnapped

and enslaved for centuries, leaving generations to struggle with inequality before global climate change brings the collapse of civilization.
13110830, :-(

I don't wanna play anymore.
13110831, We definitely are living in a dystopia

Posted by squeeg, Tue Jan-03-17 06:18 PM
There's no way anything like that would ever happen.

no slow death for me, thanks.
13110924, Zombies would suck IRL. Shit would be STINKING after a few...
Posted by flipnile, Wed Jan-04-17 08:51 AM
Cities would be mad toxic. Probably fires popping up everywhere.

But even before that, just imagine rotting dead bodies everywhere you go.
13110927, That's why you burn the bodies
Posted by Paps_Smear, Wed Jan-04-17 08:55 AM
Dead bodies in the water would be rough though, I imagine it would take a shit load of clean up to fix that.
13111292, PLEASE tell me you've seen this:

13110929, I'd be prepared for zombies
Posted by Paps_Smear, Wed Jan-04-17 09:00 AM
Got enough ammo to take care of my own, and I know some mean ass survival skills so setting up camp wouldn't be too much a problem nor would hunting for food when it because scares because of the looting.

The Rapture tho? Demons and shit? FUCK. THAT.

How would we even deal with that if it could happen? Every scenario seems like it could be manageable except for that one. I played Doom, that's about as close as I'd ever want to be to that actually happening.
13110941, One begat the others...

1) Ecomonic collapse (No supermarkets, no convince of modern life) - This will start it. Weakening of consumer power, walk down of middle/low class quality of life.

2) Martial Law (Government take over, concentration camps, King Trump) - with a weakened economy and a lack of resources, the way is paved for this.

3) Nuclear Fallout (Live in an radioactive wasteland, supermutants & deformed ppl) - Recognizing the weakening of the US and seized control by Government, other world powers attack with the intent on invasion and takeover.

4) Zombies (Reanimated or diseased/contagious people) - Waste from the fallout creates infected humans/Zombie-state.

5) Rapture (demons & shit) - Realizing that it's all about to fall down, the creator decides to start over. Sends the clean up crew.

13111298, The Finacial thing would bring about the "Warlord Era".
Posted by Shogun, Wed Jan-04-17 01:53 PM
and I'm gonna sign up with a badass War Lord, and get mine.


I figure all I need is a lead pipe, a denim vest, and some ambition. Warlords always require henchmen.

in some way shape or form

Least preferred is zombies -- every black person in America is going to be considered one on GP
13111686, I kinda feel we'd be lucky to have a Black Mirror tech based scenario
Posted by kevlar skully, Thu Jan-05-17 10:39 AM
Like "nosedive" or "15 million merits" isn't far from where we are now and would be way more manageable than the rapture or zombies
13111689, implantable technology can easily create zombies
