i am not looking forward to ANY form of power whatsoever...

eventually in a post SHTF world, gasoline or any form of fossil fuel will be almost if not a form a currency, and eventually it might become potentially dangerous to have a "movie night"


so...what have i been doing?


books...and plenty of them, im not gonna sit here and lie to you and tell you im collecting mark twain books, or mathematical theories books....NO


to be honest, im collecting comic books, and plenty of them...

if you are going to get into the book collecting business i recommend keeping the ENTERTAINING ones, things that you might read again and again, and also try having some survival books handy...

so my entertainment plans for the apocalypse....


comic books

-cockfights. or dogfights, or catfights or cockroach fights.....whatever domestic livestock you have to work with.


You had some great ideas until I read this line.
How can you even suggest such things?
If man could learn to get over his blood lust, we wouldn't be preparing to see such harsh times that lie in our wake.
We'd have a hell of a lot more time to play games if we didn't have to keep watch for marauding invaders with violent intentions. We could actually get along and barter like civilized beings.
I know what I'm talking about. I have a dog, three parrots, and three rabbits. None of them are kept in cages and all of them get along with each other. It's very harmonious. Humans will never be able to do this. They just can't seem to get a grasp on living together. Those who enjoy seeing pain and bloodshed have a while to go before they can be considered enlightened.

/end of rant.

Although, in the event that something happened to me and the animals were on their own until someone came to feed them. I'm sure if a week had gone by, my dog would start eyeing up the birds and rabbits. Once food becomes scarce, it's every man for himself.

As a friend of mine would say, "get dronk, get nakkid, mack babys".

Seriously though, we would all be too busy worrying about important things like eating!

Pardon me.

By all means, we can assume that the burnt-out, post-apocalyptic shell of our civilization will be politically correct.

Delete my reference to animal combat. Substitute the phrase "diversity festival" instead.

I was far from trying to be politically correct. I was just pointing out how barbaric "civilized" humans actually are. This trait is one that we can not rise above, so we will continually be keeping ourselves down.

Seeing as you and probably others are up for enjoying blood shed as a form of entertainment, why stop at animals? This way, you nor anybody else can complain when placed in a cage and ordered to fight to the death.
