What would be harder to survive, the infected in 28 days later, or Reavers from Serenety/Firefly?
I’d go reavers cause well they can operate spaceships and stuff.

You’d think Zombies would be the easiest to kill. Problem with Zombies is they overwhelm you with sheer numbers. Plus you have to be able to shoot them in the head from a distance. You can’t let them get too close and you have to be aware of your surroundings or you’ll be encircled quickly.
More than likey if there is one or two zombies that you see, there are more within range of the commotion being caused and will be heading your way. There’s a lot of strategy involved when trying to survive a zombie attack/infestation/movie. It’s not all run and gun. You’ll eventually get tired where the Zombies won’t. They’ll just keep coming after you.

Things important for Zombie Apocolypse.
#1 leather jacket [/quote]yes[quote]
#2 Sawed off shotgun, pump action of course[/quote]not a bad choice, I’d much rather have a .45 semi-auto spring loaded for close range. More accurate and a higher capacity ammo[quote]
#3 Dirtbike[/quote]too much noise. However, not a bad choice as your options of going off road are least limited. I’d have a hard time turning this down, honestly. But, ultimately I’d much rather have an off road vehicle with a roof and cage covering the front and back.[quote]
#4 Baseball Bat (aluminium)[/quote]don’t need if you have a katana. When battling zombies you want to be able to travel light. Any excess weapons will only slow you down[quote]
#5 Shit Kicker steel toed boots, or steel toed Hiking Boots[/quote]I’d go with the hiking boots and maybe carry a pair of lighter tennis shoes for urban travel[quote]
#6 Torch Lighter with a backup refuel cartridge[/quote] could be useful but you have to be careful. A flame will attract zombies from miles away if they see it. And in the dark you won’t know they’re coming until they’re right ontop of you[quote]
#7 Katana [/quote]good choice for a last resort weapon as long as someone else in your group has a crow bar also (to pry open doors with. YOu might damage your katana blade)[quote]
#8 Skull and Crossbones Tatoo [/quote]is there any kind?[quote]
#9 black eyepatch (to look more badass)[/quote] if it’s uneeded I would forgo the eye patch. You need your vision to be unhindered when facing a zombie infestation for optimal survival. I’d rather be eye-patchless and alive than be that asshole zombie wearing an eye-patch[quote]
#10 50 Cal sniper Rifle[/quote]without a fucking doubt[qoute]

But couldn’t you climb on the roof? Most zombies are too stupid to climb. If you have conserved your ammo or at least have not thrown your weapon away, you should be able to hold off the ones that do know how to climb. Although that damn Nemesis dude would probably fuck your shit up anyway- he had a rocket launcher.

If you’re in a pinch you could climb onto a roof. Problem with that is you’ve just signed your own death warrant. Like you pointed out, if there’s no immediate rescure plan you don’t have a snow balls chance in Hell of surviving.
Now, we can discuss the difference between Zombies and Infected. A zombie is undead. That means he has died and has been reanimated. He has no living tissue or motor functions. A bodyless zombie (just the head) will still eat. But they have very limited motor skills (read: they can’t run or jump or have very limited hops yo).
Now the infected people you see in 28 days later aren’t zombies. They are infected. They do not die and become reanimated but the virus takes over their living bodies. Kind of like in I Am Legend. Those aren’t zombies but more like mutants. When I discuss zombies I am not referring to these infecteds. I am referring to reanimated corpses. Please know the difference.[/quote]
You can’t survive the infected IMO. I am legend is more believeable because he took refuge in bunkering down at night and making moves in the day, infected attack at all hours. That shit is unserviveable, they will get you eventually!

Then the challenge becomes surviving the island, which is a whole new challenge. Who would want to live on an island alone though. Most people who crash on islands or in the wilderness and survive take refuge in believing they will one day be saved. But in that scenario you will never be saved, the island is your refuge and your life. I think i’d rather go out in a blaze of glory taking on the infected.
Imagine walking down an alley and finding the infected version of ProX, H4M, and Waylander all looking right at about to attack! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!
But don’t the infected still have to eat to survive? And wouldn’t ones as large as those mentioned have to eat more frequently? If you were to escape, they would start eating each other. Kinky…

Couple places I would go if there actually was a 28 days infected outbreak.
#1 mountains, they aren’t going to stop and get bundled up and thus if you get to some high altitude cold place they will literally freeze solid trying to get you. You on the other hand can make fires and stay warm if you have some decent supplies.
#2 a vast desert. The infected seem to be very leaky, out in a big desert, I could conserve my body fluids, drink catctus fluid, find shade and survive. Infected would just be wandering around losing LOTS of moisture to the hot dry conditions and they would only last a day or two tops trying to get to me, so if I was 3 days jog from the edge of the desert, I would be safe enough to pick off any potential stragglers who did manage to get to me. Also they would literally be on deaths door with so little moisture left in thier systems.

Funny you should mention the environment as a strategic advantage in survivng. You are 100% correct with your first assessment. We, as rational sane human beings, would be much safer and much more likely to survive in remote areas such as in the mountains or the tundra in the event of an outbreak or zombie infestation than anywhere else. The remote isolation is the main reason. The climate is another. And the fact we can survive and forage for food increases our likely hood of outlasting the outbreak.
However, the desert is void of food and vegetation making a lot more difficult to survive long periods of time. The climate would beat down on you and be a major factor. It’s a lot easier to stay warm in the mountains than stay out of the elements in the desert. If you were to venture in the desert for survival you would need advanced planning if you wanted to survive for a prolonged period of time as opposed to the mountain scenario where you’d be more likely to survive a haphazard experience.

For whatever reason I’ve always felt my most vulnerable in the shower, and never liked the thought of robbers or killers coming while I’m bathing, which is why I take 15 min showers and always lock the door.

Wait a 15 minute shower is considered short?

15 min is my average early morning still groggy shower time, if I’m taking a quick shower it’s much different.
Plus you’ll see once your out of the service, the whole sense of urgency in everything you do thing kinda goes away in time.[/quote]
I respectfully disagree. If you’re in the shower for 15 minutes, you are doing more than rinsing the grogginess away. 7 minutes should be plenty. A 3 minute grace period is allowable. Anything more, and you’re doing things you shouldn’t be doing in there.

Well in my defense ever since I read this post by vagita my showers are taking a bit longer.
[quote]Vegita wrote:
I thought I already went through this but let me do it again. Soap the crack, or shaving cream if your fussy. Razor in right hand, right leg goes up on side of tub, left hand pulls left cheek away from right cheek. Right hand equipped with razor makes gentle passes starting from the taint to the tailbone.
If you have never done it or haven’t done it in a while, every single swipe is going to clog the razor, rinse it off after every swipe. My shower has the “massage” setting on the shower head, this is better for removing clumped hair from the razor. Keep going and adding additional soap/cream when needed.
Pretty soon the razor will stop getting all clogged up, at that point in time, just rub your fingers around the crack a little and you can identify specific little patches that you might have missed.
One the left side is cleared, switch hands and switch your stance up. Repeat the process. I find making passes from the taint towards the tailbone to be the safest and most efficient.
So, once you have removed 99% of the hair from the crack, you have a couple options. If you are OCD, get out of the shower and dry your crack, pull any remaining hairs out with your fingers. Sometimes there are a few stubborn ones that just keep dodging the razor.
I really can’t explain it in any more detail, and I don’t think I am going to post a training video. so get in the shower and do your best, seriously, I came up with a way all on my own, if your determined, you will find a way to do pretty much anything.
