TGIF! It's Friday, let's play a game. It's the Zombie Apocalyse and we must build a team of atheists to survive.
Assuming we are rational people that can organize and solve internal conflicts. What talent/skill do you bring to the group.
Me first: I'm a survival cook, I can create fermentation from scratch to make alcohol, yogurt, pickles and essentially almost anything.
I have little or no knowledge in fire arms.

My number one zombie skill IS.....

sewing clothes back together in a haphazard manner....(never met a well dressed zombie anyways).

I'm also good at map making and pissing off fire ants.

hmm insulting zombies and fire ants... ok you're in.

1

I know how to sail and fish - do zombies swim?

apparently they don't swim but regardless those are good skills. You're in!

1

Um... I know where the nearest Menards is, and they have locking doors, axes, food, mattresses... It's a good home base, no?

YES! you're in just for the Ukelele. We need to lift spirits (Great video!! and a propos)... the rest is icing on the cake.

1

Nothing!

dang! I wish you had something for us. We can't have anybody dragging us down.

I’m a nurse! Take me! Also, I’m pretty good at baseball. So there’s that.

Jumbo Level 4 June 8, 2018

Been waiting to recruit more medical expertise... Yep you're in! We'll need wood carvers for the baseball bat part. A formidable weapon. Don't want you to get blisters or something by swinging just branches or rough wood.

@Donotbelieve yes we need to stock up!

1

I'm not an athiest, so I can't play. 😟

We have room in the bait and sacrifice brigade if you're up for it?

Are you a spy for those other guys? If so, you blew your cover. ☺

@Donotbelieve more suggestions like that and I'll move up the ranks Lieutenant! (first promotion)

@Sticks48 You got me. I'm a spy for trump and putin. lol

@CrazyQuilter Nice thinking. That could actually work!

@Donotbelieve Troop 211!

@Donotbelieve I'll think of a witty retort after a few minutes. My brain hurts after dealing with idiots last night. No, no one on here. people that come unannounced to my house when I'm half asleep.

I am a veteran of 11 years in army recon. I've qualified with everything from pistols to anti-tank missiles. I also trained as a combat medic because real medics are to valuable to send on long range reconnaissance and would endanger everyone.

I am good with booby traps ( they're easily modified to create alarms, and scaled down versions are good for trapping food). I can fish, hunt, cook, and build shelters. I can build a water purification system from scratch. I shoot informal matches and handload my own ammo. I can make black powder. I can make an assortment of primitive and improvised weapons too.

Important for a team setting: I'm even tempered and I have conducted a lot of training. I also tend to be a good moderator.

There are other skills that I'm sure you can infer from what I've already told you.

ADD: if you're interested, I also worked as a weapons instructor. None of my trainees shot themselves.

JimG Level 8 June 8, 2018

security detail and instructor for you. You're in!

@Donotbelieve the more the better! You're in!

@Donotbelieve damned straight!

@CrazyQuilter I'm not too concerned about making headshots. This is one hundred yards with my target rifle. Don't worry about the spread of the shots. I was adjusting the sights as I shot that target.

mental note: don't upset @JimG

I can make clothing, garden and shoot a gun. My Dad, who was a life-long member of the NRA but would be disgusted at it now, taught me to shoot.

You're in! no need to have people naked all the time. You'll need to give classes to many of us. The shooting part is icing on the cake!

I am a lawyer, utterly useless to this cause!

ok you'll be part of the bait and sacrifice brigade. Requires little training. we need to recuit more of those. Pass the word to your coworkers and peers. ... you're in!

tut-tut, on the contrary, most zombies would run like hell knowing that you were filing a lawsuit against them. Just because they are undead does not mean that they realize that proper asset protection is necessary in times of trouble.

@yamaha45701 he's recruited already. Do you want him in your detachment?

@Lukian No, sadly once the zombies are beating against the greenhouse wall, it is probably to late to throw a writ or summons at them. Better to send the zombies their legal notices while they are some distance off so as to cause them angst and woe, thus foiling their evil zombie plans of eating us accompanied by some tasty greens.

1

I too know a little about growing food as I teach greenhouse management. I will start researching zombie proof greenhouses that will withstand their relentless attacks while we work away inside growing tasty greens, tomatoes, and other vegetables. (all organicaly of course)

Ok you and @crazyquilter can team up but let’s spread our resources so that we can survive attacks on one location.

@CrazyQuilter will try...

3

I am literally made of meat. When the zombies inevitably break into our safe house, I can distract them for a few minutes to cover everyone's escape by virtue of me being delicious

That can be useful. We'll cover you with cardboard so we get a longer time to escape. You're in and we'll feed you.

@Lukian I enjoy food; thank you!

@NotReallyKirby Nope, I don't wear a cape. I wear steel-toed boots.

@CrazyQuilter If I do rise from the grave, please destroy me. I wouldn't want any primitive screwballs starting a religion based on me!

@Donotbelieve Some friends and I have always wondered what happens if you kill a ghost. Do you get a ghost's ghost? What if you kill that ghost? How many levels of ghost are there?!

@Donotbelieve What about specter, wight, phantom, shade, & revenant? 😛

@ghost_warlock, @Donotbelieve, @CrazyQuilter FOCUS people!!! Zombies we are talking ZOMBIES here! They don't come back.... (any sidebar conversation is not conducive to completing the task at hand...wink)

I have 3 degrees in electrical engineering. I can design weapons to shock and kill the zombies.

BD66 Level 8 June 8, 2018

very useful!! can you rig things to make electricity as well? you're in! but I still want to know the answer to my question....

2

Hmmm... I have a super strong sense of smell. Might be useful in early detection of zombies nearby or detecting if food is still edible.

ok that's useful. You'll train with @nicknotes to learn how to climb trees and be lookout. You're in!

@Lukian My partner builds and repairs chainsaws. Perfect for decapitating. Lol

@Kadygee Is he an Atheist? if yes, save him when the apocalypse starts... we need that expertise.

I can climb a tree....can zombies climb trees?

Great for look outs. You’re in!

Great...thanks...@Lukian
