Steal a car, head to the co-op for food, head to B&Q, get some barbed wire and a few nailguns, and a few car batteries. Rig an electric barbed wire fence around my house, and hide inside with the weapons (avec un baseball bat that we've already got) and food. ~or~ Pretend to be one of them. head out for Junes house
She'd be a zombie too.

The island I live on doesn't have any graveyards, so really all I'd need to do is blow up the bridge or let someone else blow up the bridge. After that, I would get on YouTube and watch videos of people getting eaten by zombies.

I'd get my dogs, the two family members I like, get my arse to Bristol pick someone up, steal a ferry, go to northern Norway where there are less people and as such less Zombies and my family, get my granddad's gun and watch until the few appeared.

I live out in the middle of nowhere at the top of a steep hill with two dogs that would have a lot of fun taring up zombies. I'm not likely to be zombied before Pel is able to get out to the house. Our issue would be that in 10 months after the attach, we'd have another mouth to feed...

Hop on my bike and hold out til' I could find shelter, but honestly I don't really know my way around town and I haven't handled a gun before. I'd be zombie meat. I might take my dog Pippin but would probably leave him behind because he is getting fat and can't follow my bike much anymore.

If there is going to be a Zombie Apocalypse I whish it is after I get out of the Navy. I don't want to get stuck in a back draft to fight off Zombies. That and I'mm be well trained in the use of firearms.

Grab some big metal sticks from inside my house (hooray keyboard stand!), my brother's tactical vest and his air pistol (not much, I know), maybe my stepdad's air rifle to strap to my back, and some knives. Also matches, a couple of lighters and a torch (flashlight). I live in a cul-de-sac, so if there are zombies in it it's going to be harder for me to get out, but I reckon I could hop a few fences if need be. Check in on my friends closest to me geographically (remembering rule #1 of any zombie apocalypse: once your friend becomes a zombie, they're not your friend any more), then make a break for Birmingham to the weapon shop, possibly "borrowing" a car along the way, even though I don't knwo how to drive. Come to think of it, I don't know the way to Birmingham. I'd probably end up grabbing any remaining friends and walking alongside the tram until I reach it, and then finding my way to the weapon shop. Maybe get a shotgun, but they're not really all that practical in a zombie apocalypse, so my main priorities would be pistols and/or assault rifles, maybe a good hunting rifle (thus replacing the air pistol and air rifle). Make sure to stock up on ammo and store it in the tactical vest. Find a good, secure building to stake out for a while to assess the situation (one with a good food supply, but not a big place in which zombies could be lurking, so Wal-Mart is out of the question). Look for any radios or televisions to turn on to check what's going on elsewhere, then eventually grab some food in a holdall and head out towards other people, using the weapons to shoot/slash/bash/burn a path through any zombies blocking my path, but avoiding them as much as possible. Eventually (if necessary) find some way to get to another country with a lower population (the Pitcairn Islands would be nice, but they're way too far away to feasibly travel to alone).
Is it bad that I think about this often?

When the zombies come, I will unleash my soul avatar and own them all.
No,, honestly, I'll go to with my brother to the Super-Wal-Mart he's going to create. It will be a regular Wal-Mart, but fortified.

Not compleatly true. If you had a say "small vilage population" you could gaurd a Wal-Mart. The only problem with that is then you need to put in some form of ruling and the food dosen't last as long.

You might have better luck holding out in a grocery store, assuming you stopped at Wal-Mart first to get the guns.
Actually, it wouldn't be as hard to hold it as you think. Wal-Mart is big, yes, but its walls are several feet of concrete, so you'd only really need to guard the entrances. And it sells hunting equipment. You'd have weapons and a bottleneck.

I thought about it today, and decided that my best bet would be the nearest middle school about two blocks away. Food supply and rooms you could use as temporary housing, so all you have to provide is the means of defense. I'd try and signal other survivors.

The Wal-Mart closest to me is pretty big, but if I was on my own in there, even for a night, I'd go stir-crazy with paranoia. Even if I'd checked all over, secure all the entrances, and then checked again, I'd still think there were zombies somewhere, just waiting for me to give in and head for the bakery. My school's made up of about 15 buildings, but I'm not so sure about the defensive capabilities. I think the newest block would be my safest option, and it has Chemistry supplies, so I've got a good supply of chemicals for makeshift bombs and stuff. There's no food in there though, so I'd have to make my way across the schoolyard to the canteen. I think the thing to do is to not get yourself tied to one place. Otherwise you're going to find it harder and harder to move on out to face the zombies and find survivors.

Point. Maybe it's just me, but I would prefer to stay a maximum of two days in a building like that. I think it would be better to keep moving to increase my chances of finding survivors than staying put to increase my chances of the zombies getting in.

I'd stay until something gave me reason to move. You never know when or if you'll get another zombieless shelter.

That and it's a pain in the but to reinforce a building and even more of one to find one that is aready up to your safety standards already. This is way I would have to agree with June.
