I mean if the entire electrical grid was wiped out at one time and no one in the US had electricity, how long do you think you and your family would last?

(just read a post on the poli board that linked this scary shite. LINK)

Id probably die of old age if the world wasn’t full of assholes and candy asses.

But in reality, probably about 3 hours after the air conditioner shite the bed.

Most could live for the extent of it being out. We'd be fricking miserable but we would survive

It would be miserable in South LA but we wouldn't die. I know how to hunt, fish & build a fire. My wife hates camping so I might have to get rid of her on about day 3 though.

Find a spot to catch trout where it would be a PITA for LDWF to write me a ticket and I’d eat like a king forever

We dealt with some pretty basic survival in the first couple of days after Katrina and I was legitimately amazed at the number of people who lacked even the most basic survival skills. Things like starting a campfire and setting up a basic latrine. I guess the Boy Scouts did me some good.
