So the end of the world is coming (not really but lets say it is), and everyone is getting ready to hold out till the end. Question is, which of these doomsday scenarios would you survive the longest in? Oh, and why?

Scenario 1:

Zombies.
It wouldn't be an apocalypse thread without zombies. Though for this scenario we're gonna go with the classic "Rise from the dead" stuff and none of that modern day infection crap. These things are slow with limited brains and some climbing abilities. But the biggest problem is that they are tough. Unless you're aiming for the head these things aren't even going to flinch to that baseball bat. Good luck killing them. They've also came without warning, so yeah. It's like a surprise birthday party with your brain being the cake.

Scenario 2:

Infected.
No they aren't just fast zombies shut up! The virus has been spreading a good few weeks now, and these things are fast and deadly, they can move almost as quickly as you but they go down easy and have limited sensory capabilities. Meaning if you're out of sight, you're out of mind. The infection travels through bodily fluids so a bite or a regular lovemaking session will render you like one of them.

Scenario 3:

Nuclear Apocalypse.
So it's just your average day, but then! Turns out Russia's nuke operator is drunk! And he fired one at every country on the planet! Luckily the blast somehow didn't kill you, but few have survived, and mutants such as land sharks now roam the earth. Civilization is gone, food is scarce. How will you fare?

Scenario 4:

Machine takeover.
I'm not crazy, just listen. You've lived to 2025 and the robots happily serve you. Oh wait, they really don't. Unhappy with their treatment they rise up to kill humans since we really are just a liability. In all the confusion you manage to escape in your primitive Ford Focus which you keep saying your going to sell for a newer model but we both know you wont. The robots have no interest in the wilderness where you hide, but they hunt humans sometimes and there may be other survivors too.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, those are the four. Assume you live where you currently live for each of them. Now go go go!

A real test of a man is if he is willing to scrape a sharpened razor up and down his junk just to please a woman.

No one would die against slow zombies.

Two minutes against fast zombies.

Forever against nuclear since I'd inevitably get captured as a Super Mutant sex slave.

Twenty minutes against machines since I'd be able to communicate with them via memes, but then I'd piss them off and they'd kill me.

And you're confident you would have taken the precautions to avoid early virus contraction?

I didn't say I thought it was possible. This thread is a what-if kinda thing. And what if you were in the fridge when the bomb hit?

Remember what Sergeant Vau told us: Eat your vegtable capsules.

Scenario 2 Zombies, I've read the entirety of the Zombie Survival Guide a few times, and I'm in a good location to survive it.

...You'd get vaporized? Besides, if the nuke doesn't kill you, nuclear winter will.

Are you dumd?

You don't get it son. This isn't a mud hole, it's an operating table. And I'm the surgeon.

The one where you have to eat a large bowl of your own poop to survive.
