Moved into new house this month. Neighbor's yard is kinda messy. Oh it's all tools and ladders and cinder blocks and poo poo I wonder what's up with that.

First conversation with her she uses the phrases "neighbors gotta stick together" and "when the grid goes down." Then I notice the paved area between our houses is actually a bunker.

I can't figure out if this is a good thing or a bad thing, cause she was definitely making it sound like a good thing.

Start acting more and more paranoid and let her know that they are starting to monitor all your conversations and its not safe. Then just start doing crazy poo poo all the time for shits and giggles. This is a great opportunity you have to gently caress with someone and I envy you for it.

From President of the colonies to this.
Earlier this week I was to meet my friend at Tim Hortons, but I decided to meet him closer to his house. There was like one guy in there, and his table was covered in books. I went up to him and asked him for directions, and then instead of giving me directions, he told me about how the world was going to end in like 20 days. He also had like two dozen books laid out on this Tim Hortons desk.
How do people get like this?

Depression hits some people so hard that they hope that the world, and society itself will change, because that would be easier then changing themselves.

The apocalypse would give meaning to an increasingly inconsequential modern world. I get it and all, but some people just mix that up with actual expectations and hopes. It's weird.

When your family genetics has been picking veggies for 50000 years, and then one generation that no longer is a useful skill, and that being a cashier doesn't bring you any form of happiness, dreaming of an end to tech makes a lot of sense.

Honestly it's a harmless.

Someone who (probably) wastes money on prepping is smarter than someone who wastes an equal amount of money on cars, too much house, overpriced fake fancy made in China furniture, etc.

Plus there is the chance it's not a total waste. Even if their ultimate Mad Max nightmare/fantasy never happens, natural disasters do and so do black-outs.

I think at a minimum every responsible adult should do minor prepping - just like it's smart to have a few months expenses in an emergency fund, it's smart to have a couple of fire-arms and some ammo, some clean water, some non-perishable food items, etc. I wouldn't recommend preparing for doomsday however, 99.99% probability of being a waste of time, plus even if Doomsday happens you're still gonna die. Someone will eventually put 2 and 2 together and come looking for your stash. The best prepping for Doomsday is physical fitness, marksmanship, and being mentally OK with becoming a merciless savage in order to survive.

The dangerous thing about doomsday preppers and also hippies is that they have given up on the society that we all require in order to survive.

Yeah I'm not honestly worried about her but I thought it was funny hearing "when the grid goes down" said in total seriousness.

I knew some Y2K preppers where I used to live. They had a bunker and their daughters had all sorts of combat training. I've always wondered how disappointed they were when society didn't actually collapse.

I made some jars of real good pickles that cost basically nothing and are tasty so I would make those and give her some, and then after you can eat some of the pickles you made and watch TV or something

Im not a prepper.

I have a bunch of camping gear, emergency food, 3gal of potable water, and 8 gallons of utility water.

If someone catastrophic happened in Portland I would be just fine.

If you own a bunker, a cache of weapons, and you conduct readiness drills, you are dumb and a weirdo.

Being prepared is fine, but being a prepper is bad.

I forgot to mention the most important part of prepping - where you choose to live.

I live in a rural county, outside the city limits of a town of around 3,000 people which it the county seat, in a golf-course neighborhood full of old white people.

LOL if you live in an Urban hell-hole and spend double what my house costs on an apartment and spend the time I spend in leisure commuting to work and spend the money I spend on myself on dumb taxes so your dumb Democrat "leaders" can ignore crumbling infrastructure and buy votes with handouts.

Your reward for living like an animal will be immediate death when the zombies come/aliens invade/race wars begin.

Oh, and if they have a bunker. Find out where their air vents are and dump ammonia and bleach in if there is an emergency incident.

Guns dont protect you from chlorine gas. :3:

Then you can take all their neat poo poo or just move in.

thats barely enough water to wash my butt after an explosive dook.

plus you admitted you don't have a weapons/ammo cache so consider that precious water mine when the time comes.

Contribute some minor poo poo to the bunker and then in the off chance poo poo does go down you can use it since 'neighbors stick together.'

Sounds like you're getting free 'end of world' insurance, ingrate.

This is a great idea if you want the rest of your life as her neighbor to be 100% based around her because she'd instantly become co-dependent on you since she thinks you're both fighting against the NWO or whatever

sooo, is 'living near preppers' a key factor when you look for housing?
