Any PREPPERS here?

Most people will laugh at these guys calling them crazy crackpots, but when disaster hits, not sure if they'll still be laughing...



what people don't get is that they don't necessarily have to go back to stone age technology to survive. Mankind has accumulated vast amounts of knowledge over the centuries and one only has to have the proper motivation to learn. Basic carpentry, basic electrical wiring to something as mundane as fishing will go a long way compared to sitting in the office and being complacent over what the future brings.

Simple question like, do I have a flashlight in my pocket, or some rain gear? It boils down to mentality. Growing up as a kid, the other kids think it's "uncool" to have water jugs, umbrellas, rain boots, and ponchos. This mentality is still predominant when I got into college. The other guys call it "parang bata" or "mommy's boy" just because I have rain gear with me. But guess who has the smug grin when Espana turns into a freakin' river? That's right. See ya suckas!
