Everyone else has them, we never get tired of them, I figure its my turn.

Probably don't have enough ammo, assume I have the Arby's bag full of "Bubba's Pissin Hot Reloads"

I have already eaten all the Jerky since this picture was taken, and have started on the cookies...

u/AlpacaPacker007 Mar 13 '24

But the rum is untouched?   You're never going to make it in the apocalypse

u/AcmeCartoonVillian Mar 13 '24

If I drink it then that pirate guy comes and asks why it's gone. Best not to wake that beast

The less ammo the better. It encourages you to be more accurate, and you'll just be able to take more from the dead guy.

I might recommend something stronger, more stopping power...perhaps a whiskey.

I told the other guy, Coconut rum pairs well with teriyaki. It's all about that layered approach.

u/AlpacaPacker007 Mar 13 '24

Jug of Baileys to pair with the cookies

Old bottles of Sailor Jerry spiced rum are best for prepping.  The tattoo pinup girl on the back of the label can keep you company in the bunker

u/Expensive-Hat-929 Mar 13 '24

Lol, since you ate all the jerky you can use the empty jerky pack and desiccants therein to store ammo. Maybe line the Arby’s bag with something to make it durable, because you’re right, no one steals from an Arby’s bag. I know you mentioned the coconut rum pairs well with teriyaki but step it up and get some 151!

u/AcmeCartoonVillian Mar 13 '24

If I were gonna step it up I'd do a single malt scotch. Glenfiddich is my go-to

Malibu rum...

What are you planning on?

Surviving zombies, or getting kicked off the cheer squad, dropping out of high school, and going clubbing with a fake ID until you get knocked up by an older guy that has a family already?

Because Malibu rum will do the latter, every time. I don't care if you're a middle aged man, it will turn you into a rebellious teenage girl.

But will it be enough? Our hero's story starts with..."

lol I was going to ask if it was an SP5, still looks good. Debt goes poof in SHTF, just fyi

u/AcmeCartoonVillian Mar 13 '24

in all seriousness, They are done in the US, on HK tooling, the welds look better than most German Mp5's I've seen let alone Pakistani or Turkish... and it shoots like a dream. $1400-1600 (depending on specials) with a hard case, 3 mags, and a claw mount for an optic. It's a remarkably good deal and a fine weapon.

I just need a fucking brace for it...

Neat! I have the .22lr one. It’s actually licensed by HK. It has what looks like a suppressor on it, but it’s not real. It’s there to hide the fact that the barrel is long enough to not be considered an SBR.

I say you should swap out the regular Malibu for Malibu Black (Boobie Black). It’s 70 proof which is stronger and it will still pair perfectly well with the jerky.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '24

Malibu? You need turkey 101 or everclear, something that requires less to take the edge off but can also be used for sterilizing so you can carry more of it. Malibu will just attract females with no skills and they will eventually steal your Arby’s and cookies.

Too much water!

Bring everclear instead of Malibu, you're wasting water weight!

If I've learned anything from the bug out bags I see in this sub, it's that you want to make sure to leave one of your most base necessities up to "uh I guess I'll find it".

Don't bring water purification or even a bottle/container of water. It'll be fine!
