Field Guide to the Apocalypse
Movie Survival Skills for the End of the World
Meg Marco
- the
- end
- is
- near
Surviving
- the
- apocalypse
- is
- one
- thing.
- Enjoying
- life
- after
- most
- of
- civilization
- is
- wiped
- out
- --
- that's
- entirely
- different.
- Maybe
- you
- can
- outrun
- an
- avalanche,
- or
- escape
- a
- burning
- building,
- but
- can
- you
- really
- cut
- it
- after
- the
- unthinkable
- happens?
- Can
- you,
- for
- example,
- deal
- with
- damn
- dirty
- apes,
- convert
- your
- car
- to
- run
- on
- bathtub
- gin,
- or
- synthesize
- a
- species-saving
- vaccine
- from
- your
- own
- mucus?
- No?
Obviously,
- it's
- not
- going
- to
- be
- as
- easy
- as
- you
- thought
- to
- come
- out
- of
- Armageddon
- as
- the
- new
- ruling
- king
- of
- the
- world.
- Any
- chump
- off
- the
- street
- could
- be
- lucky
- enough
- to
- have
- the
- immunity
- to
- survive
- the
- all-of-humanity-killing
- disease,
- or
- be
- the
- one
- dude
- who
- happens
- to
- make
- it
- through
- a
- meteor
- strike.
- But
- not
- everyone
- will
- know
- what
- clothes
- to
- wear
- to
- intimidate,
- or
- what
- kind
- of
- vehicle
- you
- want
- to
- be
- driving
- in
- the
- postapocalyptic
- wasteland.
- Not
- everyone
- will
- have
- the
- sense
- to
- discern
- whether
- their
- food
- is,
- in
- fact,
- people.
You
- can
- survive
- the
- apocalypse
- without
- this
- book.
- But
- the
- apocalypse
- isn't
- the
- problem:
- It's
- what
- happens
- afterward.
- You
- against
- the
- other
- people
- left
- in
- the
- world.
- You'd
- better
- be prepared.
