What kind of SHTF Scenario would you NOT want to Survive?

another one that i wouldnt want to be around for would be if the Book of Revelation actaully happened

i dont believe in the Bible that much but ive read the Book of Revelation and man that would suck

Scenarios that would suck:

* National loss of electricity for 1 year. Without refrigeration and tv people will become insane without frozen pizza and cold beer. People would have to eat fresh foods and end up with impossible to find vegetables. Horrible situation.

* Loss of earth's magnetic field. Nobody could come out during the daytime. Animals would all die-off.

* Loss of all Kardashians. This is a central point of reference for all of mankind.

If it was widespread, I wouldn't want to survive a nuclear "incident". If I were a couple decades younger, perhaps I might think differently.

Also, I don't want to live through another Obama term. If the damage inflicted in his first 2 years are any indication, he could cause some serious mayhem in 8 years.

Other than the whole psychological aspect...there's the risk of infection (zombie scenario)... That's always downplayed in the movies, when you see the hero swing a baseball bat, spraying infected blood everywhere..

Just one drop in the eyes, dripping down off your forehead, mouth or nose, etc. Paranoid wouldn't even BEGIN to describe it....

For me, I think I'd rather go quickly than live in a Zombie Apocalypse or a post-Nuclear War (global) environment. I think we'd likely go bonkers anyhow if constantly trying to get away from zombies, or if most vegetation was atomized, etc.

You may not have a choice but to live through it.

Revelation 9:6 says, "And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them."

Not an encouraging thought.

Being the last one on earth would be a worse nightmare... I told ya so but nobody would hear it...

Boon, he didn't say last human. He said "last man". All the women in the cave would hear you just fine.

And you'd still be wrong.

Hmmm very good question. For me it'd have to be the dreaded Clown Apocalypse, them running around all smug and self-righteous in their red noses and big feet.


Okey, serious now. I'd have to go with a fire or water scenario. The rest (shrug) after a little time to adjust I think would be doable.

You know I've always wondered what it would be like to survive a Zombie apocalypse or a nuclear war (assuming the radiation doesn't linger around top ground). I find the idea of fending for yourself to be quite alluring, but I'm not sure if I would want it.

Personally I would not want to live through a crustacean apocalypse. I am absolutely terrified of crustaceans (crabs, lobsters, etc) and would rather die then live through one. I'm not sure how that sort of apocalypse would even happen, but I guess we don't know how a Zombie apocalypse would happen either.

Read your post and the GOM came to mind....

Bio*chemical war, everything contaminated, 90% of people dead

Just like the movies - 28 Hours, 28 Days and finally 28 Weeks (British films)


take care all

other than that I'm good with any scenario

Well Gaz, my first reaction was only a scenario where actual S hits a fan. I'm a bit of a neat freak and that would freak me out. Then again I just might die of embarrassment from being covered in "fall-out".

Then of course this guy brings up brine shrimp run amuck and I'm shaking over that. That would be a living nightmare unless of course they elected me king of the sea monkeys. You know like in the back of the old comic books? A little gold crown and all my subjects swimming around. You would have to dig that. I've been telling my wife that in some reality I must be a king and she agrees. She says the evidence is that I'm a royal PIA in this one.

I would definitely not want to be in a "last-man-on-earth" scenario. That would truly suck.

I also wouldn't like any kind of nuclear holocaust situation where everything is burnt and dead... kind of like the one from "The Road".

It wouldn't be so bad if it were only men that were wiped out...last-man-on-earth but all the ladies were still around

Would not want:
1) Giant hairy mutated insects and spiders, if I was out of ammo because of the "current at the time" administration.

2) Everyone turning gay at the same time, because of the "current administration". I won't be able to comply no matter what!

giant zombie poo's with worms for arms nd legs from nuclear mutation

Two words:

Hillary Clinton.


No surviving that.

...a man city premiership trophy win.

...and nuclear armageddon.

I'm with the other people with not wanting to survive the "last man on earth". That would be lonely and kinda suck.

I think probably most of them that have a distinct possibility of occurring.

Nuclear winter or a SERIOUS ice age. I hate cold (stupid reason) but really there is meager chances of survival when vegetation slows/stop.
