How to survive the zombie apocalypse?

The zombies are coming, and they are after your brains! In this class, students will learn how to survive the zombie apocalypse (or at least learn how to analyze fictional zombies) as well as develop techniques to analyze literature and write academic essays. These techniques of literary analysis will enable students to get at deeper meanings in poems, short stories, and novels--and learn that they make them more interesting to read. They include recognizing the surface of a text and what’s beneath it (surface/depth reading); identifying meaningful patterns in a text; describing the significance of character, setting, perspective, and a variety of literary devices ; making connections between a text and its surrounding context; and interpreting the social relevance of a text. Upon successful completion of the class, students will be able to interpret and write about fictional zombies in ways that go beyond the obvious. Having survived the literary zombie apocalypse, students will depart the class with their brains intact (almost guaranteed). This class has no prerequisites.

What do we need to survive?

All humans need water, food, and shelter to survive. So, let’s begin by talking about water. You’re going to need a consistent water supply nearby at all times. Preferably some sort of stream or river because there’s usually less bacteria in water that’s moving compared to water that’s not moving like in a lake. Once you get that water, you’re still going to want to boil it for at least 5 minutes killing off almost all bacteria that’s still in it. From there you’re going to need some sort of storage container to hold all that water. Ideally you would like an item that could be multifaceted. An item that’s light wait, and has multiple uses. Something that could start a fire, but also could be used a storage device for your water. Luckily I’ve thought of the perfect survival item. You’re going to want condoms.

What foods should I plant in an apocalyptic scenario?

So, what kinds of foods should you be growing in an apocalyptic type of scenario? Ideally, you’re going to want a crop that (1) is easy to grow if you don’t know a lot about growing things, (2) provides you with the nutrients you’re going to need to survive. After doing a bit of research the crop that fits these requirements the best is the potato. The humble potato is good to grow because as long as you plant them deep in the ground, about four inches deep, and let them be, they will grow naturally. The only real problem I found with growing potatoes was the amount of time they take to fully grow. They take about 70-120 days to fully grow, so maybe just start planting them now and by the time things start getting bad you’ll have a harvest. Another cool thing about potatoes is that you can continually grow them as long as you don’t harvest them all. That’s right, you can have infinite potatoes! And if you’ve seen the movie “The Martian”, starring Matt Damon, then you know you can survive off potatoes for quite a long time. Another major benefit of potatoes is there’s a lot of things you can cook with them. The possibilities are really endless with this great apocalyptic crop.

Can you use a condom to start a fire?

Condoms? Yes condoms. They’re are super lightweight and durable. They can hold a ton of water and if you put a sock over a condom it makes it so it can’t be cut open by any sharp objects easily. You can also use a condom to start a fire to boil your water. By using a clear condom with water in it you can reflect the suns light through the condom to start a fire. Have I watched at least three YouTube tutorials to confirm this fact? Yes, yes, I have. Did I get put on a government watchlist somewhere because of it? Probably, and I doubt it’ll be the last time either. The point is condoms are the perfect apocalypse tool to have in your survival kit. So, next time you’re at the store, pick up a pack of Trojans just in case.

Can we survive the apocalypse without food?

Food may be scarce in the event of the apocalypse, and even though humans can go along time without food; I know from experience if I don’t eat at least once every eight hours I get a little cranky. It’s a good thing to have a lot of is what I’m saying. Like water, you can never have enough food stockpiled up. Eventually, all the food on earth right now is going to expire. Especially if we don’t have electricity to preserve meats and other foods that need refrigeration. And unless you plain on surviving strictly off Twinkie’s, which never expire, it’s going to be useful to know how to grow your own food.
