    The one doomsday prepper I knew had to weigh at least 400 pounds. I often wondered if he knew how to make insulin for when the apocalypse happens.

    He was actually a nice enough guy, but not the brightest bulb in the box.

      That’s because they’re planning against the fall of civilization. Realistically that wouldn’t happen. The bank stayed open during covid, the supermarket stayed open during covid. All that really happened was that life became very difficult for everyone and some people died.

      If your enemy is a virus then your front door is more than enough protection. You don’t need a big underground bunker you just need some pasta. But that’s boring so they don’t care.
