I think I would turn into a different lane and drive away from the zombies, but if I was getting angry, I'd probably drive through the zombies.

But what if your car was broken and they were all around you?

I'd have a nervous breakdown.

Aw man. Will no one join me in my pointless, primal-urge induced fight for survival?

Then again, I could try do stuff similar to things in Resident Evil.
I also keep a selection of records in my boot, so I could throw them at them. Not the good records though. Not throwing them at them.
(Another Shaun of the Dead reference )

Though it's more possible that I'd have a nervous breakdown, then panic, then start to cry, then I would open the back seats of the car and hide in the boot while still panicking and crying really hevily for fear of being eaten alive.

If you want me to be realistic, if I was with my family I couldn't run because my mom has arthritis. So I would probably have to push them in the car to safety. Also If I was by myself, I would run to safety because I'm talking about a 1000 zombies about 300 feet behind you.
But on the flip side if they surrounded me. I would put floor mats covering my shoulders and for arms and head and run though them. Because I don't think I could jump on their heads.

Once again, that's completely unrealistic. Pushing a car full of people isn't exactly as simple as you put it, my friend. Running or fighting them off would be better options.

To be completely honest, I would probably be one of the first to die in the beginning of the outbreak, either from zombies, panicked people (or possibly hit by a truck with a panicked/zombified driver), or my own stupidity.

I've re-thought what I would do. I would have a nervous breakdown, cry, and all the other stuff I said, but considering the situation, I'd probably be eaten/shot/killed somehow by zombies and desperate civillians, but even if we did survive, what would be left afterwards? Nothing. I would just drown myself. There'd be no point in living. I read the effects of drowning, it seems to be a nice, peaceful way to die.

I've gotten the Zombie Survival Guide too, it's very logical. I'd probably go for destroying my stairs and arming myself with a cutlass (because I do fencing, I would have a rough knowledge on how to use it, as it's basically a heavier, sharper sabre). If I had access to a gun, I'd probably use a Number 8 as it's pretty much the only gun I'd be able to use, most likely.

The book DOES rock

NINJEDIT: I'd NEVER use a car. When the zombie can average on max about 1.5 steps a second, you might aswell just walk briskly and not have the danger of running out of fuel and being trapped in a metal coffin.

It would also probably be quite useful to go to the Great Wall of China, not much will be able to get you there easily

Alright, dude, you're a doctor and you think drowning's a peaceful way to die? Are you insane?

No. I personally don't know the effects of drowning, even thoguh I'm a doctor. I just read that at first it's painful, but then it's okay.

Dude, having to inhale water because you're body is in dire need of oxygen, and then having your body try it's hardest to rid itself of all the water in your lungs, is hardly what I'd call "okay". It's probably one of the most agonizing and frightening deaths out there.

Good point. It never mentioned that in the book. Goddamn Reader's Digest.

Yep. Turned one on Thursday. I like having two doctorates. It makes me proud. It makes me feel important, even though I'm probably not.

Well, perhaps they didn't want to create an uncomfortable image in the reader's mind, so they decided to leave out the details?

Only you can decide if you're important or not. You shouldn't let documents decide that for you, in my opinion.

I propose that Snuzi gets the title 'OWF's Guidance Counselor' because he's always telling people to have self-confidence in themselves and not care what other things do to you.

Well, thank you, but you have to understand that for every time I attempt to build up a person's self-confidence, I mock and ridicule someone else. So if we're speaking logically, both acts kinda cancel each other out .

What would I do in a Zombie outbreak? You're asking my opinion? How thoughtful...



Anyways, I race for ACE Hardware, and get all kinds of lawn equip- I mean, Zombie killing weapons. Then, I get in my car, and drive to the nearest polar ice-cap. (in a zombie attack, no one cares if you are old enough to drive.) Or I'd drive through as many Zombies as I could and then hold up in the school.
I'll be damned if they are going to infest my body!

I would probably got feral of someting...Like a wolf as I already growl and bare my teeth at people when they annoy me, i'll probably sink back to the caveman (woman) nature. Go cavepeople! I hate zombies, they are freaky looking. *Hisses in distaste*

I think a shot to the head would probably be the best way to go. Quick, relatively painless, and you can't be zombified if you don't have a brain.

DEAR MITSUR:

Dude, you'd be fine. You wouldn't even need need to move anywhere. Zombies are attracted to LARGE cities, because of the population density.
That, and your house was practically DESIGNED for a zombie outbreak. That's why my plan is to go to your house ;D

Well I would perfer not to be shot, but hey, you dont get what you want in this creepy world. Oh and I saw this show where this man had a powerdrill sticking out of the side of his head and he was still alive and walking about, so if you are attacking Zombies and you have a powerdrill, go for the eyes.
