A sound setup like that’s not going to be cheap

[-] [email protected] 17 points 2 days ago

Yeah, I'm saving my 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel to power my 20 ton Doof Wagon with massive sound equipment and flame throwing guitar. That should be enough fuel to intimidate anyone that comes near my compound for about a week.

This is why I'm investing in girl scout cookies. They will have a high trading value AND are edible. The perfect investment vehicle.

AND they're easily frozen, good for long term storage!

That's a great plan ..... if you live north of the Arctic Circle

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Or In yakutia

What, you're telling me you don't possess a hamster-powered freezer?

What's the Thin Mint / guzzoline exchange rate?

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

About 0.1 banana

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

That depends on who rules Barter Town

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Probably 5 thin mints per gallon. In my mind, they are about $1 each. 😉

when world trade routes collapse the first thing to run out is going to be gas, there is no world where you have no water but plenty of diesel xD

Counterpoint: If we had taken this thinking in the 80s, when the first Mad Max movies were made, we would have missed out on a lot of money saving.

My point is: don't let movies or some bad recent news guide your planning too much.

In the 80s it was a fantasy, not a real prospect

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

That’s what Reagan wanted you to believe.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

As opposed to tye christofascists who own all the banks deciding what you can abd can't spend your money on.

Saving is censorship. Spend the money you get on infrastructure. Invest in people.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yup, if you succumb to the mentality that this meme is joking about you'll one day find yourself old, poor and dependent on other people.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Just to be clear, we're all already poor and dependent on other people

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I hope you guys get better.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

That includes you if you don't live on the Sentinel Island or something.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

From the same director who crafted Babe: Pig in the city, this movie was better than it had any right to be.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Land, food, and ammo will become the currency.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Maybe replace land with lamb.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Good movie btw. Its mad max fury road!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Also, the christofascists who own the banks control all that money you're saving.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

You should save bottlecaps for the future

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Laughed so hard when that dude showed up. Also loved the bag boys chanting "v8" - what a top film.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

If you'd saved some money, you could afford your own apocalypse truck made from scrap!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Will there be nuka cola caps tho???????

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

This is a clear case of zombie rockerophobia.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I am saving money...

To buy a bunker...
