If I am trapped in a situation where I am going to be bored for a while, such as having to sit in a waiting room, I have a mental exercise where I create a doomsday plan. Sometimes it will be a zombie apocalypse, but it could be nuclear war, a large natural disaster or even something more immediate like making an exit strategy if someone runs into the room with a shotgun.

I'm not a prepper or anything like @pembo, it's just a thing I've done for as long as I can remember. So yeah, what is your doomsday plan, whatever your chosen doomsday scenario may be?

Hard mode: it can't include the words "Winchester" or "pint".

Depends on the scenario.

Zombie apocalypse and massive war where enemy ground troops enter the continental US (that I don't feel compelled to fight for, for some reason; I likely would if things got that dire), prompts an exit to the most remote parts of Montana to live out the rest of my days with family and complete self-reliance for sustenance and the like. As long as we remain low-key, discovery is likely not an issue.

Nuclear war has a decent chance of me dying on the spot, since I live next to a great deal of oil production and refining in this country. If the enemy is thinking long-term, economic warfare, several spots relatively near me present viable targets. If I don't die in the blast, I expect to perish from radiation soon after.

Man with a shotgun in the house is simple enough - pull out my shotgun and don't suck. God bless the USA.
