re: #54 Dr Lizardo

IT’S ALL GONNA COLLAPSE ANY DAY NOW! JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE! WHO’S GONNA BE LAUGHING THEN, HUH?!

That pretty much captures the gist of many on the survivalist/prepper fringe.

Don’t get me wrong; I have no problems against being prepared for any emergency or contingency. I have candles in case the power fails, as well as a weeks worth of non-perishable foodstuffs in case of the same event. It unlikely the power would be out that long here in the eastern Czech Republic - the longest power outage I’ve seen is two hours or so.

I suppose I could get snowbound if we were to have an extreme snow event, but again, that’s also rather unlikely.

But a general societal collapse? Zombie hordes? Rampaging hordes of Visigoths?

Not so much.

The Invisigoths will be a greater threat since you won’t see them coming.
