Not knowing what the apocalypse consists of makes it impossible to make assumptions of what you'd do (or not do) afterwards.
Any of those hit, there's no choices.

Watching Doomsday Preppers is fun. These guys who think they have a fucking clue trying to protect themselves and family. Fucking clueless.

Scary.
They have a real smug attitude, as if they know something we don't. Like the religious nuts.

The one driving around in his articulated lorry was the funniest. Fucking goof ball.

Should there be any economic or environmental collapse. The Army and those in command of it will come look after you or fuck with you. Dreaming of driving around a mall, how old are you?
