  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

What would be your reaction/how would you be affected if there was a worldwide blackout?

LMAO I love this
 
I'd light candles and talk to the neighbors. It would be alright for about half a day and then I would get bored. If it was in the winter, the cold would get unbearable real soon.
 
Being without my computer might be hard to take, but because the entire planet would be in the same situation, at least people wouldn't be getting upset or anxious about me NOT REPLYING to their urgent or important emails, haha.
 
Been on a long blackout during a deluge twice, once when I was eight, and the other about 5 years ago. We survived pretty well. The only thing we were concerned about was whether the food in the fridge would rot first before the power came.

So yeah, I would start listing who I would eat first :twisted:
 
I just spend 5 hours working on a video and had my eletric cut even though my housemates haid paid the bill ergh so annoyed.
 
Eh, I'm all for it. I was a camp leader back in high school and being tech-free for 10 weeks is quite liberating. I doubt I could live without my i pod though. Need music.
 
So all of you with generators and wind-up toys and solar panels... what are you going to connect to? Remember, it's a worldwide blackout. No internet, no cable, no TV signals, no radio signals, no cellular signals. No electricity anywhere in the world. If you had your own source of electricity, you could listen to CDs or your iPod, play video games, refrigerate your food... but you'd be completely cut off from all communication more complex than leaning out your window and yelling.

Then what do you do? I would enjoy the silence... until an airplane landed on my house because the airport didn't have any electricity and the radio control tower couldn't broadcast.
 
Break out the Anti-Zombie Spray!

I actually try NOT to think about when this might happen.

One well placed Electro-Magnetic Pulse, either natural or man made, would put us back into the 1800-1900's in an instant.
Everything is computerized now days, from cars, tractors, phones, communication networks, banking... You name it... and we're all so dependent and reliant on computers today's generation wouldn't have a clue how to do things without them. My job is about 20 miles away. I couldn't even really bike to work if I had to daily, and everything there from office stuff, to heavy machinery is run by some kind of computer.
 
I would embrace the silence...until the panic really starts.

I'll sit in my house with all the lights on and the heater cranked and watch the neighbors freeze their balls off in the dark. :lol:
 
If this is permanent and we somehow knew it wasn't going to return?

First i would be armed in about five different ways. Then I would head south into the fields and eventually the lakes of the Ozarks. I would never go near a roadway and I would avoid farms and such along the way. I may swing slightly east before heading south and link up with a FWB I have in Missouri who was in the army and I know can manage in the field.

I would then fish and start salting it for winter. Scout out the areas I find to sleep and find the local wild plants that you can eat... if this happened now that is because first job will be to make it through winter. After the first winter, I would hunt enough to make some rations for the road and then head west and north. North because those unprepared will not survive a cold winter and west because that is where most of our largest natural preserves are located.

This is fun to plan... can I turn the switch off and get started now?
