The Friday Five for 25 August 2023: Zombie Apocalypse

[anais_pf]

These questions were written by sulien.

Are you prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse? No, I don't mean an actual zombie outbreak, I mean disasters, natural and otherwise. Things like power outages (seriously, we were out for 10 days after a particularly nasty storm), earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, breakdowns on lonely stretches of road in bad weather. The Zombocalypse can take many forms and it's a good idea to have things stashed in preparation in your vehicles and your home.

1. Are you prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse (essentially any disaster, natural or otherwise)?

2. What's in your bug-in (stay safe at home) kit?

3. What's in your bug-out bag?

4. What's on your 'to get' list?

5. Do you keep gear in your vehicle, if so, what?

This post inspired me to add band-aids to my shopping list.

1. Are you prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse (essentially any disaster, natural or otherwise)?
Not even slightly. I will be one of the first to diiiiiie and very, very soon (and hopefully very, very fast.)

2. What's in your bug-in (stay safe at home) kit? (Never heard that expression before!) I don't really have one, and while we have a decent store cupboard, I'm not sure how long we would last without restocking. And while there may be home delivery (I can think of a few people I know who may no longer know how to live without it anyway) who's gonna do it? And what do I do if said deliverer does turn out to be zombified? (see Q1)

3. What's in your bug-out bag? Don't have that either, I do know what I would grab if I had to evacuate from, say, a bushfire in a hurry. Where I live, if a disaster gets this far we are all doomed.

4. What's on your 'to get' list? Ummmmmm.... first of all, a list?

5. Do you keep gear in your vehicle, if so, what? No, I keep stuff in my car, but nothing I could use to ward off Q1.

Disaster preparedness is a hot button with me because of where I live. My answers are here, if anyone's intersted: https://sulien.dreamwidth.org/335809.html
