I mean, it depends heavily on the type of apocalypse.

Meteor strike? I’ll just enjoy the next three days. It’ll likely wipe out any chance anyone has of survival.

Zombies? Yeah, I’d probably try and survive and group up with some of my better equipped friends.

Global nuclear war? I’ll just off myself. I don’t want to even exist in that scenario.

Get all the grocery shopping done early and then sit back and watch the show unfold.

Plan a hostile takeover of a Costco

Rent an isolated cabin far out in the woods, buy anything I can think of that would help me last indefinitely out there, get enough supplies for the short term, then pack it all in the truck and gtfo with my cat in the passenger seat.

Uhh get my boyfriend pregnant

sorry I'm already fully booked on Thursday. Friday is really a no and I have a bbq during the weekend. Can we move to early next week? Happy to touch base to find common ground and unleash synergies.

Op, do you know something???

Try to get invited to some cool end of the world parties

What do you know?

WHAT DO TOU KNOW?

Also, I already have my own little library so I'm set on that end. I probably would just get get blitzed and enjoy myself with my husband those last three days.

I have books on everything from "doctoring where there is no doctor" to scavenging the local area to encyclopedias, etc.

My library is for the survivors. I harbor no delusion that I am likely to be among them. (And, in the mean time, I just like books.)

I mean, people seem to think the apocalypse would be survivable, but that's not how I understand it.

But for an impending survivable disaster, I'd get supplies and weapons and head to somewhere remote.

I'd go fishing with my dog.

I'd just go out to a pub every day and night, and just drink. What else are you gonna do

I would probably try out heroin. Been saving it for the end because if I need painkillers for health reasons, they would be more effective.

But that is assuming an apocalypse means collapse of "civilization". Imagine if you were a 1%er, and you had all the power and wealth in the world. wouldn't losing all that unearned power be an apocalypse for you, even though it would make everyone's lives better?

One person's apocalypse could very well be everyone's salvation.

Depends on the apocalypse.

Nuclear? Get a nice tan in the radiation (or Ideally blast zone).

Zombie or a virus? Probably just die. No way I want to live through a zombie apocalypse and the virus would probably be painful.

I don't know why anyone would want to live through an apocalypse. It's bound to be hell.

Without knowing what kind of apocalypse that may be a waste plenty of them where humans are extinct or even the whole planet destroyed.

I have an interview that day. I just need the cell tower to work until the afternoon and we're good to go.

Depends entirely on the kind of collapse

I'd get really excited, like what I'm going to wear?

I'd go see my closest family and open up the vintage wines we'd been saving for later

Call in sick and go fishing, spend time with my family at the creek.

Apocalypse by default isn't survivable.

Probably I would try to enjoy the last 3 days and at the end I would repent because it would not hurt to cover all the bases.

If it would be survivable: I would not last long. Medical / vision / dental coverage is in short supply during the end of days.
Find a good fortress/ship with water and solar panels, download Wikipedia (annas archive), gather seeds and growing supplies, tools to fix stuff, duct tape: Realistically not happening.

If it’s one where people would still be alive but without infra, network like crazy.

Time for a nap, make something nice to eat, find an interesting book to read. After, have a wander through the garden. Maybe an extra nap, just to stock up. Spend some time with my loved ones. Probably another nap. Rinse and repeat until the end.

Ok so, you're vague on what the apocalypse is, but you did say "before everything collapses", and talk about preserving knowledge. So I'm thinking big solar flare that destroys technology as we know it.

For an apocalypse, this is easy mode. Basically going back to like what, the 50s level of tech for most people. A lot of the world would also not even notice.

Get myself and all the people I care about to withdraw everything they can in cash, even taking out cash loans if possible. Build fereday (sp?) cages for all our stuff. Stock up on a few months worth of groceries and water, and we could probably ride that wave till things get fixed.

See yall tomorrow
