Zombie stuff.

So I admit it, I am very intrigued by Zombies. I currently started watching "The Walking Dead" every now and then when I have time. I wonder sometimes to myself what would happen if something like a Zombie epidemic were to actually happen . What would I do, how would I survive, who would I go looking for to join me in my fight for survival? Things like that. Within my mind I have a plan of what I would do, but here's an interesting reality. Something I've found out over time is, every dude I know has already though of a plan (regardless of how simple or complex) of action they would take in case something like "Zombies" suddenly became a reality among us. On the flip side, maybe 5% of women have ever given that subject a single though.

Something else I've also discovered. Most dudes actually think that a Zombie world might actually be fun to live in as long as the right survival tools were available to them. The number one tool that pretty much all dudes agree is the most needed survival tool for such an occasion, is a gun. The reality is that men enjoy shooting things, we really do. And the thought of being able to walk around and shoot Zombies knowing that their already dead, is actually a really fun thought. Personally, a gun would be my first choice. Water would be my second choice, and a machete would be my third. Fourth item would be a big truck, 4x4 with big tires and a nice big grill on the front. Most women that read this will think that this is juvenile and childish. I would have to agree and disagree with them. If you are referring to the guy's that completely take it to far and let it consume them by becoming Zombie nerds, then yes I would agree with you, very childish. But if you talking about the dudes who have thought through a plan just in case, and then moved on with their lives, I disagree with you. It's good to take into account the "what if's" in your life at some point in your life, but not let them control you.

Of course there are ton of different things that come into play with the idea of a Zombie epidemic. The massive loss of life as millions of people are infected, a whole culture collapsing, and a whole mass of other things.
But you gotta admit, the idea of living in a world that doesn't revolve around money and politics, where you can carry gun's wherever you go, sounds pretty awesome to me.
