The excrement just hit the fan, you have 5 minutes to grab your things and gtfo

[talisman]

I just noticed that. There, all better. You happy you fucking bitches?

"Grab my "thing"" eh?

[CJ]

No. I try not to watch so much TV that I think the world is going to end every 5 minutes, or that if it did I would be able to do anything about it.

So your advocating for irresponsibility?

These colors don't run.

Only if you're advocating acting like Chicken Little.

Do you think it's outside of the realm of possibility that your food or safety may be put in jeopardy?

People with tons of shit:

1. Step outside with a shipping container on your back.
2. Walk 2 miles.
3. Sit down to take a rest.
4. Get shot in the face by some neckbeard hiding in duck commander camo with an SKS.

What do you consider a ton of shit? Some of these lists are long but a lot of items are pretty small and don't take up space. Obviously ammo, MRE's, and equipment is much bigger. An ALICE pack or somthing similar can hold a lot of shit and not weigh a lot.

That's a pretty wide question. Care to narrow it down?

No, that's pretty much the question. Those two things can cause you a whole mess of problems. I'm sure your thoughts are everyone in here is crazy, and find more interest in mocking it than considering it. But the real question is if someone like that happened to you, and you had to rely on yourself and keep that as your responsibility, could you do it with what you have in your house right now? Dismiss all your preconceived notions about the likelihood and as yourself if you could do that on a moments notice. And if not, are you comfortable with that? That's really all it boils down to. Many people (the majority) couldn't, and probably don't feel it's that important. Some people find this far more important than others. Think of it as a different insurance policy. For the small amount of money and time invested I find it to be a worthwhile endeavor.

[sc281]

Just curious, but what kind of bag do you have all of this stored in?

Kelty redwing 44. Its in the post

A fucking HUGE one. lol

Not really. If you look up the stuff I have listed, it's all small and lightweight.

I think many people would be surprised how hard it is to make a fire with only a ferro rod, striker, wood, and no other sort of accelerant or fuel. If you can't make a fire in a survival situation, you're pretty much screwed.

I am more comfortable with the life I am living at this exact moment in time than I have ever been in the rest of the 37+ years that I have lived on this planet. Does that answer your question?
