Good luck then.


Lots of redundancies.
Why a metal bat and a crowbar, the crowbar serves additional purposes, and I seriously doubt if a mass melee ensues a bat vs crowbar will matter much.
Why a machete? Going into the jungle? The knifes and axes should serve any purpose that the machete does.
Torch as in flashlight? Might want some sort of battery charger than.
You got the food but missed the water, I would recommend instead of taking water, pack a few water bladders and some means of purification. Speaking of which, you need a pot of some sort.
Ditch the hammer, you have multiple forms of blunt whacking and again the crowbar should have a claw to extract nails with. Nails in a pack sounds like a bad idea in the long run anyway, unless you are very careful in packing them, expect some new holes in everything.

Yeah but if a zombie softball game breaks out he'll sure look silly standing there holding that crow bar.
 
lol.

in this thread you find retards vehemently telling some dude how he can't possibly survive a zombie attack.

lol


that being said: guns are useless in a zombie attack.

period.
 
What exactly is your plan? Escape to the safety of a military bunker? Or survive in the wilderness, rebuild civilization?

Why would a curved sword be illegal and a straight one legal? Is there some physics behind this reasoning?

No idea. But that's the law.

Probably start by going down the road to my parents, gathering my loved ones then I have a couple of locations in mind.
 
People always forget the one thing that can kill you the quickest in any survival situation, lack of medicine. Infections, fever, diet, etc can kill you quick.

So don't forget:
Acetaminophen
Ibuprofen
Penicillin / amoxicillin
baking soda - very versatile stuff and serves several purposes. Increases blood sodium level, not a lot of sodium in wild life. Can disinfect wounds, mix with water, it raises the PH so high that bacteria cannot live. Can also be used to preserve meat - cover meat to prevent bacterial growth.
 
A forum dedicated to surviving the Zombie/whatever/Obama apocalypse. There are some good laughs in there. Especially the "what did you do today to prepare for the apocalypse" thread, and all the fat guys who say "I did 3 pushups today, soon I hope to be up to 4."
