Good:  I know how to camp (like really camp, not "glamp"), I can sew okay, I'm good at directions,and I'm pretty dang smart and good at making plans

Bad: I'm pretty weak sauce, and the second escaping a zombie meant doing any kind of pull-up I would be toast.

Pros:  I can shoot a crossbow.  I can make a fire.  I'm a super light sleeper so I will hear the zombies coming.  I'm super entertaining.  I could make hard decisions like who to sacrifice to the zombies so the rest of us could escape.

Cons:  I get cranky when hungry or tired.  I complain a lot.  I would be very upset without clean  underwear and pajamas at all times.

I think this is a pro and a con - I'm fat, I don't run so I'm a very easy sacrifice lol

I've heard the Canadian government has a Zombie plan - they'd herd all us Canadians up north because the Zombies would freeze to death if they come up there, and because there would be no food for them and they'd die of starvation.

But... they're already dead, they can't freeze or starve to death. That's what makes them zombies.

I'm a fairly competent runner and I don't need much food, so I'd have that I guess. I'm also pretty good with the survival skills and camping. I'm okay with horses too and have a decent sense of direction and can cook and sew. But realistically I'd be useless because I'm a scaredy-cat princess and I hate being cold and i don't think I could kill anything.

See they wouldn't freeze to death, but they would freeze so therefore they can't attack until they thaw again.

Good: I have guns. 

Bad: I have guns and I don't know how to work all of them. 

I can cook, and I'm pretty athletic and capable, but I also suffer from the hangry, and that could be my downfall. 

esstee33

Good: I can sew, knit, crochet, and cook. I'm not as small as I once was, but I can still get into very tight spaces and I'm very sneaky, so I'd be awesome at recon. I'm not really a runner, but when the adrenaline kicks in, I suddenly become one. I've done obstacle races, so I'm good at running through weird shit. 

Bad: Little upper body strength, no weapons skills, and I'm not a patient person, so expect bitchiness if people are slow / otherwise a hindrance. 

NowIamMrsKlein

Good: Was in cadets as a youth and can make a mean Lean-too Shelter. And can shoot a gun pretty good (It's been like 12 years but Im sure I could still make a decent shot).

 And I'm tiny so im good at wiggling into small places so if we need to get into a building for supplies I'm your girl.

Bad: Bad thyroid. Without my meds I'd pretty much be useless because I would have no energy to even walk. Although I guess that would make me good bait in a pinch? I'd take one for the team...

Early sacrifice. I have no desire to fight that shit.

I will be with you on that. My skills are online shopping, watching tv and eating/drinking. Nothing that will come in handy during the zombie apocalypse.

Hang on a second, the Others and the Wights COME from the North and the snowy freezing cold. (Winter is coming, anyone??) This CA girl isn't going north to meet them! 

sassyfrass2014

Pro: I've already had appendicitis so I would not randomly get appendicitis and die. I'm a great cook and often cook without recipe, and I do very well cooking over fire. FI and I also like to make our own cider (and we're looking into fermenting our own wine sometime soon!) FI has a WUFA so he's certified in wilderness survival and first aid. We have TONS of camping gear ready to go. I also get pretty ruthless and won't have many reservations as far as killing zombies/hunting animals goes. And I'm a pretty good shot with a Nerf gun so that counts for something right??

Cons: I suffer the hangry. I can be a bitch (or "have a strong personality" if you wanna be nice). I have to check food labels because of Celiac disease.

carrie0924

I can sew some (it will be functional, but probably fit poorly and look pretty awful), and I can knit beautifully (albeit slowly). I have some rudimentary spinning skills.

I am slow, hate physical activity of any kind, and emotional. I tend to get a bit panicky and over-react to issues in my own life, so I will fall apart when confronted. So I'm guessing I would be okay to keep around until I slow you down. Then please, kill me quick. I don't want to be a zombie.

Pros: I can hunt and field dress animals. I have farmed my whole life so I could help with a garden. I am decent at sewing. I know how to camp. I know CPR. I'm naturally a leader and remain calm in stressful situations. I'm a decent cook and don't get tired of eating the same thing every day. FI and I live in the middle of nowhere so we have a meet up location with my brothers in case shit blew up (like government overthrow or something). We have 3 shotguns, an AR-15, a 3-06 rifle, a .22 rifle, a .40 handgun, and a 9mm handgun with plenty of ammo. We also have a lot of canned food in storage (like canned from our garden).

Cons: I'm a picky eat but I will eat what I have to to survive. I'm ALWAYS cold, always. 

ETA: Obviously there are probably more cons than that but I'm trying to sell myself so people want me on their team!  

sarawifenow

Pros: I have lots of suitcases that I can fill with bottles and bottles of wine. They can serve as barracades to make it harder for the zombies to get across while we are all drinking.

 

Cons: I am a lightweight and would probably get really drunk on said wine and then pass out and get eaten.

OK Comrades, I see you know bupkiss about making booze. We must prepare, everyone ask for fruitcakes for your holiday gifts. Other useful items for our storehouse - raisins, stale bread (dry it out so it doesn't get moldy, glass jars and bottles porcelain tub, don't like that plastic taste in my moonshine).

Pros - I learned how to make liquor from all those old prison movies. Family history - as a kid during prohibition, MIL made money by taking glass jars to the 'Corner Store' to be filled with home made whiskey. The 'gentlemen' in her aunts boarding house tipped her well for the service. My father taught my brother and I how to make wine out of yeast, grape juice, glass bottle and a balloon.

I have a strong stomach and can assist the surgeon with anesthesia (see above). Also have hand quilting experience so probably pretty good at suturing wounds with little scarring.

Cons- I'm lazy so you'll have to run the supplies/patients to me. I think mostly everything is funny so I laugh at inappropriate times.

Are they not worried about the living humans freezing and starving to death too?

arrrghmatey

Pros: I'm an awesome shot with firearms and pretty skilled with a sword (numerous years of fencing and some pirate reenacting). I'm also pretty athletic--I run half marathons, Les Mills Combat/Kickboxing, 4x Insanity graduate, etc.

Cons: I like to sleep. And drink wine. And rum. Gimme the rum. Why's the rum gone?? Where'd it go?!?!
