    If the apocalypse brings about fast moving zombies (rabid humans basically), then I think there is very little to do except find a group of 4 to 5 strong survivors, move in packs, and try and take out as many as possible while keeping a low profile. Guns, ammo, non-perishable food items, and first aid supplies would be a must, but they also must not be a burden. Weak people (including certain women, children, and the elderly) would have to be left behind in order to ensure survival. But at the end, I think death would still be inevitable since the zombies would be aggressive, and they would come in hordes.

    Now if we're talking about the slow-moving kind that just amble along aimlessly until a prey crosses directly in front of it, just don't be a moron, and you should be able to live for a very long time.

    exactly it would have to be slow zombies in order to survive. The fast one's would be too much to handle.

    A zombie apocalypse is not realistic.

    I hate the current Zombie hype, it's the most annoying internet thing of 2012 for me. Seems so nerdish.

    There's always that little part in everyone that lusts for violence, chaos, death, and destruction. Me? I find the prospect of a zombie apocalypse interesting. Thrilling even.

    Popular science has an article about prions being ferried by some virus but it would have to target the reasoning portions of the brain.

    Y'know. I guess tomorrow, it'll be where the world taken over by psychopathic AI, war-machine robots/cyborgs, and blood thirsty live real dolls using men, like a black widow.

    According to the Walking Dead becoming a zombie is something that happens
    after we die
    . So wouldnt it make sense just to
    burn the bodies after ppl die
    ?

    I live in Hawaii. No worries for me since zombies won't be able to swim across the Pacific.

    You would not literally think you lived in hell if you were in those countries.

    I'd have my half assed 30 day armageddon ration. For the first 20 or so days, I'd hole up, play some fps, furiously beat off to the p*rn I had, live off of stale pizza and mtn dew. You know all ironic-like.

    Once the chaos and shooting slows down (namely no more battery reserves to run the computer), things start getting serious and use some of that fps skills with the obligatory 2nd amendment firearms only a Texan would know and love. I imagine the pasty whiteness and the lack of bathing would throw off other zombies into thinking that I'm one of them.

    Nah, but they can float across it or walk under it.

    When puffy, waterlogged zombies wash up on your shores, be sure to tell them aloha.

    In a zombie apocalypse, I would become a zombie and raise through the ranks and be they're leader. Then I would eat all of you weak humans.
