This week's RT topic with Lin, Katrin and I is not for the squeamish:
I would not do well in a zombie apocalypse. Let's just say that up front. However I do have a few things going for me.
1. I've watched a LOT of Walking Dead. And while watching it, I watched Daryl very, very carefully. And I'd say at least 2.5% of that time I was paying attention to how he killed stuff.
2. I might not be great at fighting, but I can hide like a champ. And I like explosives.
3. Lin, Rusty and I have worked out a plan. The plan is they work their way north to Canada, toting all the guns they own and pick up in America (aka the land of many weapons) and they protect us while I... I dunno. Mix the drinks or something.
4. I have three cats who do not like strangers, even when they're NOT dead and dripping foul-smelling goo everywhere. Also I might not be great at standing up for myself, but if someone I care about is in danger, I go all rabid moma bear. Do NOT mess with my peeps.
5. I did go to a shooting range. Once. And I hit the target. Take that, zombie assholes. You're going DOWN. (Possibly. Once I remember how to load the gun. And aim.)
(Oh, and sidebar - here's Norman Reedus when he was learning to use the crossbow. So I feel a bit better now.)
Realistically though, I'd last about 5 minutes.
What about you guys? Would you be a survivor or zombie bait?
Daryl Dixon would be my only chance to survive. That is for sure. But if somebody attacks my pets or loved ones then I will become a monster and then you don't want to mess with me. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure he kills stuff by smoldering it to death with that stare. Mmm, those dreamy eyes!
ReplyDeleteI have to laugh at Norman and his crossbow though. Glad to know not everything is effortless for him.
