Would you survive an apocalypse?

Would you survive an apocalypse? A pathogen pandemic killing everyone off, a zombie apocalypse, a natural disaster that destroys most of the human population, whatever. Do you have survival skills? Can you forage and hunt efficiently and successfully?

People think they are special , they can survive , kill , adapt and thrive... If shit hits the fan 1 out of 15 who post on this thread would survive the first week / month? Depending on the apocalypse. After initial surviving trial period all bets are off some may survive .. Most wont... my bet?? Everyone in this thread will claim they will survive.

Well, we are in a community who enjoy the little things in life. Like hiking, camping, enjoying nature, fishing, mushroom foraging.... all would contribute to survival.

Would kinda depend on the apocalypse itself. I would be better at surviving certain ones more than others. Zombie apocalypse/deadly pandemic other than the fact that nothing you can do will guarantee your safety, I think I could have a decent shot at. The next great ice age or a snowball Earth even, I kinda doubt I'd last very long. Surviving an apocalyptic ice age needs skill sets I just don't have. I've lived in Texas my whole life, I haven't really been brought up to live in those kinds of conditions.
I don't think I'd have much trouble finding my way into a group if nessecary. I'm very imaginative and have a lot of random skills that could prove useful in an apocalypse. I definitely wouldn't just be dead weight in a group.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

What if the apocalyptic scenario was the simultaneous explosin of every Wal-Mart in the world?
Also brilliantly original plan, i don't think I've ever heard anyone say this.

I think the primary reason I would survive is because I'm adept at archery and starting friction fires.
I also practice foraying.
