Okay picture this, a small town in rural Russia, think Charnable but bigger. The people withing a ten mile radius are veporized completely those in a 50 mile radius die of the heat or radiation or both. The wind picks up and spreads the ashes of those hunndreds vapor, getting in to the air and water supply, farms. So we continue on, eating, drinking, sleeping, and breathing in the toxic dust. If we had geiger counters they would be steadily rising, thousands of people die mysteriosly, mostly the old and the very very young, but those who didn't die slowly adapt, there skin becomes rougher and shocks you it also becomes a pale greenish color, their body temperature becomes boiling and they grow large nails and sharper teeth, their digestive system turns slowly carnivorous and every living thing save for plants become these hideous dinosaur zombie people bent on satisfying an unsatisfiable hunger for meat and blood, the creatures start waring fangs and claws glint and flesh is torn and ripped, the creatures resorting to cannabalism very often, animals don't cut it, nothing cuts it, and childbirth is excruciatingly painful, the baby rips through your stomach and feeds on your corps. Even though childbirth is possible, humans and animals are unsatisfied, they never would be, there stomach digests everything but never has enough so the stomach slowly tears the flesh from your insides and eat you alive. Everything dies, except for plants and single-celled organism, and the planet is left to reevolve.

sorry dude, but my answer is Zombie Apocalypse, using whatever you can to survive against hordes of frenzied living corpses would be awesome :D
I agree with this. Also, it gives you the option to survive the apocalypse. While a Nuclear Apocalypse or Cthulu Apocalypse would be general slaughter, a Zombie one would be comparitvely safe. Plus zombies are fun to kill. The proper shufling zombies though, not the ones that run fast and/or evolve into stronger zombies. They're tough motherfuckers.
Agreed, thumbs up for the original George A. Romero zombies

I've gotta throw myself onto the comet-crashing-into-earth category here. It would be extremely cool to see. Also, three days of partying.

Well, part of what makes zombies so fun is that it instantly makes your cushy life into an urban wilderness. Luxury disappears and survival is all that matters. Of course, this itself is just a game too. Those who actually buy survival gear are just taking this game too seriously. We just like playing around with the thought of having to take what is nearby and familiar and suddenly having to use it in a life and death situation.

That being said, as far as actually surviving through an apocalypse, zombies really would be fun if they were like those in the movies. But as for the actual fear of infection and having to kill loved ones with your bare hands, zombies would be much much worse than surviving an army invasion or atomic fallout.

The more realistic apocalypses of water wars, famine, and government collapse, though, would be much more interesting to survive. Culture and humanity would live on and have to change in very interesting ways. What remains after society falls (an anxiety every Westerner faces because very little actually holds it up, a source of play for quasi-rebellious youth) is much more interesting than the actual fall.

So if I had to choose, I'd prefer to live through economic collapse (and therefore governmental and environmental collapse).

I choose for the Fallout one, and to be the one guy escorted to Vault 69.

Nuclear Fallout and Zombies seem to be the absolute best. Recently I've been finding myself picturing a really crowded area and thinking "What would this be like in a nuclear apocalypse, with nobody else around but me, wandering?"
