I want to play with his wife's tittays. Most women would be like "uh honey, I think you're loosing your mind spending all our money and time on emergency prep" so props to her for sticking by him. She seems crazy too though. But that's besides the point. His backyard farm is awesome. I love where he claims they eat tilipia every single day and aren't tired of it yet. And yeah, he had a gun he was putting into his bugout bag, but there is NO way that dude is successfully defending his wife and 3 kids by himself with 1 pistol in the middle of suburbia.

I watched and episode the other night. The people that have ethics against firearms are going to be dead. Everyone is going to steal their food and their bees. I wanted to bang the one chick that was helping them that lived in their neighborhood.

I think only one family actually was practicing survival skills. Which may be the most important out of everything.

These people are fucking crazy by the way.

I'm prepping for Doomsday. I'm stocking 3 items.
Water, canned food, and a Glock 17 with boxes and boxes of ammo.


That's it.

Came to post the same thing and I've looked at the thread about 20 times and read it the same way each time.

you should learn to shoot a rifle. A rifle is a much better firearm to have than a pistol. When your food runs out it is going to be hard to hunt with a pistol. You should have both.

This is how I would prepare for the apocolypse:

1 Rifle
1 Pistol
Ammo for both preferably at least 1000 rounds
1 Really good knife
1 Hatchet
1 Zippo lighter
lighter fluid
1 Big box of matches
1 Magnesium flint striker
2 Metal canteen
Camelbak to hold water.
As many water purification tablets as I could carry

Yeah, shit was next-level.

I like how most people don't like the expert suggestion. Dude with the bomb shelter though was like "you know what? you're right! I'm quitting my job to implement those changes"

These people get so bent out of shape when they get criticized by the "experts", it's hilarious.

I loved that the girl who lived in Houston had pretty much already come to terms with whoring herself out.

The show does make you slightly paranoid though.

The thing that trips me out about these episodes so far is how so many of them are preparing for specific events, like a severe earthquake (understandable) or super volcanos (less understandable).

Oh so this is a series? I just saw the one with the pool guy, the other lady, the two families, and dude with the shelter.

Dude with the shelter and the family are legit tho'. The family reminded me of if the Shane from WD ran Herchel's farm.
