Life in the temperate zone...

Yet another reason to avoid that tropical paradise idea in your head and just stay put.

There's just too much evil natural shit out there. Hell, the mosquito kills more folks than any other critter by far...I'll take my chances here with the junkies, gang bangers, or occasional homicidal maniac thank you. Unless said homicidal maniac builds a giant circus cannon that shoots evil snakes or swarms of cyborg mosquito assasin drones or something...
 
Then again, maybe getting away from man and machine for a while would be a good idea. Central Canada maybe? Seems safe enough save for the occasional bear or creepy prospecting Central -Canadian types....just stock up on flannel, grow a beard, and bring mosquito repellent right? Sure winters will be awful but we should be safer up there and as far away as possible from blast zones and the effects of EMPs or those that like to dress up and pretend that they're the Tooth Fairy or the Mayor of Neptune or something...

This shit happens all the time.. I don’t buy one once of it. It was laying in the road? And attacked? More like someone messed with it and it got pissed, and killed it.
Most rattlesnake bites in the US occur on men under 30 on theirs hands and forearms. Oh yeah and booze plays a role too. This tells me that people are trying to show off and needlessly approaching the snakes.
 
...and so sayeth the wise and fruitful Snake Charmer...Lo the land was plentiful and good, much as the mountain was high and the beer flowed like wine...

Yup, and the number one activity preceeding snake bites? Trying to kill the snake with a garden tool. That's right, just give the bastard an easy target while trying to kill something that will move on within a few hours, anyway. Crazy stupid.

That's certainly my impression of Canada. I tried not to fall into that stereotyping trap when I went... really I did... but...

...those that like to dress up and pretend that they're the Tooth Fairy or the Mayor of Neptune or something...

Luckily, we know where all of your relatives live, so we have a kind of epicenter from which to map a getaway location that is geographically far from the source of these Neptunian Fairy types.
 
What about Puerto Rico? We could build a hut out of paper towels...

No, that won't work.

Someplace with a lot of underground caverns, preferably without bears. Must have enough room for a well-stocked bar and sleeping quarters for any Wood Nymphs that happen to get drugged and dragged into... er... that wander past the cave and are invited in.
 
That's why I thought of central Canada. We might even stumble upon a diamond mine or Jimmy Hoffa roughing it in the wilderness. Could be a regular barrel of monkeys. Just need some WiFi...
 
No, no, no. Full throttle WiFi using potatoe batteries as well as somehow harnessing the power of maple syrup. They've taken the theoretical and applied it to everyday use.

Just need to find some bear repellent...Batman keep that on his belt? No, that was shark repellent...gotta be here somewhere....
 
I mean, if anyone else has a better place in mind to escape the worst of the next great war I'm all ears.

Does Walmart sell lead vests and Geiger counters? Cant find mine...damnit! Time to clean up the headquarters and donate some of this crap...

Anybody need an army of cyborg spiders?
Perhaps a dolphin communication kit? Gently used of course
 
All this prepper and bomb shelter stuff made me hungry. Venison stew and Jim Beam (splash of Pepsi for color) and a bag of those Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites.

Hmm... stew.... forget the bear repellent... I've got a .375 H&H Magnum laying around here, somewhere. Oh, yeah... propping up the dining room table. Never use a dining room table leg when experimenting with speedline setups in the house. Pisses off wives, which are far more dangerous than bears.
 
I found the shark repellent (shuffling papers followed by crashing and cascading noises...hero swears and mumbles)

Where's my Cloak of Eternal Darkness???

(More swearing and mumbling, sound of beer bottle being opened by a cigarette lighter)
 
What about a boat trip? Surely, there's an uninhabited island out there, somewhere, that the U.S. or Korea hasn't used for nuclear testing?
Well... There are "private" islands, I am sure they could be come an Arbor-pirate paradise...

You mean there is actually a tool called a bottle opener? I thought that's what lighters were for, you know the OG multitool.
 
Found the bottle opener. Made from a cask of Makers.

Where is the damn muriatic acid? SOB...
