    What is the first object you go for to protect yourself?

    Id go with an axe because unlike a chainsaw it doesnt need petrol, and i can axe my though doors,zombies, and people who get in my way.....

    I'd go for the cordless sanders and some white emulsion. I've been meaning to paint those stairs for a while.

    the unhelpful inanimate sales assistants. pick them up and use them as a striking object. you can also throw them at people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    A garden shed to hide in.

    A nail-gun. Not one of those little ones, one of those big mutha fcuker one's like the one Bateman had in American Psycho that has it's own gas cannister.

    Eat metal spikes you zombie basterds!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    I'd hide on top of Ruus shed who while throwing hammers at them. Protect the fort!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,523 ✭✭✭✭Nerin


    forklift ftw


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    I'd run over to the spirit levels and drink them all.
    The zombs are not getting me sober!

    *lifts Ruu, fort and defenders onto top shelf with forklift*
    better protection guys.
    *drives off on killing spree*

    Those attachments for your shoes with spikes in them, for aerating your lawn.

    Combined with my famous Chuck Norris-stylee roundhouse kicks, that would pretty much be the end of the zombies :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Lads with nailguns shooting out of sheds on top of forklifts we could possibly be the new A-Team! :D

    We can throw paint at them to make the whole thing humorous as well. I'm hoping the zombies are Shaun of the Dead style!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,481 ✭✭✭Fremen


    Are these fast-moving zombies (28 days later), or the more conventional kind?
    WD40 all over the floor might work pretty well against fast-moving zombies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,523 ✭✭✭✭Nerin


    make a perimeter around the fort with garden furniture,bbqs and lighter fluid.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,119 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Rail gun.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Is the attack starting outside or inside? Cause if it's outside ya could just order a pizza, film it and stick it on YouTube, those zombies ain't getting in here!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    Reminds me of Dead Rising.

    The fecking door....as fast as my legs could carry me. I wouldn't stop running/swimming until I hit France.



    Oh mind you, depends on what type of Zombies they are.....if they're those slow George Romero ones, then no problem, finish your shopping and take a nice stroll back to your car.

    On the other hand, if they're the zombies from 28 days later then I would probably use the few short seconds before I die to soil myself.

    1. Woodies has a large BBQ section

    2. Zombies are not human

    Surely I'm not the only one wondering what a zombie burger tastes like???

    Pff. Where is your sense of adventure?

    I bags the water-butt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,467 ✭✭✭smemon


    clothes line & chainsaw.

    tie the two ends of the clothes line to something. tie the chainsaw to the clothes line, start it up pointing down and let it fly along the clothes line, obviously when the zombies are right where you want them :D

    "Here come zombies"
    "Excellent, tell them to wait there while I put on my Indiana Jones costume" :p

    They're probably just going to 'attack' the awesome sales* in Woodies at the moment?

    *Woodies don't actually have sales, terms and conditions need not apply :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,308 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    Gas cylinders, fertilizer, spirits, and a nail gun. Take out most of the ****ers, with the explosions, than nail off the remainder.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,395 ✭✭✭Drift


    Will you all stop killing my zombies in such explosive high temperature ways. It's RUINING the taste of the burgers. :mad:

    I wouldn't be in Woodies when a zombie attack begins, I'd be in my fortress far far away :pac:

    But to answer the question, I wouldn't use an axe. I'd use some sort of machete or sword (something very sharp, an axe requires too much of a swing so you might get caught if you mis-swing) - something with enough reach so that I wouldn't get bitten. Nail gun sounds good but it depends on how many zombies there are, plus whether the nail gun would go through the skull or just stay in the front of the temple.

    chainsaw...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,102 ✭✭✭✭zuroph

    The problem with a chainsaw is that the zombie flesh might go splat everywhere, and you risk ingesting some zombie pieces. Plus you have to go for the head.
