  • File under end of days: Your post-apocalyptic fallout plan

    I have a pretty specific plan these days. With everything going on in the world, who knows when the apocalypse might be upon us! I'll break it down really easily for you. Buy as many tins of Baked Beans as possible. Buy as many biscuits as possible. Buy as much water as possible. Grab my girlfriend, PS4 and TV. Run down to the basement and lock up tight. Set my drone up to survey the area once an hour, then return home so that I can spot any pesky zombies. Wait it out with the above mentioned items until eventually things calm down a bit on the surface. Return to the surface and go shopping for more Beans / Biscuits / Water (provided my drone hasn't picked up any zombies). Rinse and repeat until death or safety. Easy when you know how!
