Poll: What is the best non weapon?

[Souplex]

A hatchet was designed for wood, not flesh. Does that count as a non-weapon, cause I have one in my basement.

 

[Tanto-chan]

Um, let's see... An object not design to be used as a weapon...

Readily available...

A chair
My printer
My laptop
My brothers guitar. He won't be happy about that
A heavy cutting board
A car door
The butt of my shotgun
The butt of my machete
That big ornamental wooden chest over there
That table
The butt of my other shotgun
That steel breadbox
That flowerpot is made of steel too, could use the dirt to blind the monsters
Crowbar for bludgeoning, screwdrivers for stabbing
Hey, there's a buzz saw in here! Buzz saw totally beats chainsaw!
Those pictures. Glass shard are good for blinding too
The table also has some heavy legs on it, those are good
The ceramic penis my roommate made me! Man, what a joker!
The car is pretty rusty, and there's some aluminum scraps in the basement. Wonder if the coffee grinder can handle aluminum...
Some cord for strangling

Can't think of any more, right now... Doesn't matter, I'm all set!

OMG I love you. I don't have shotguns or a machete (one of the few sword types I don't have one of) but the rest I agree, though the fact that I have a well stocked rustic Armory in my basement (with various pieces all over the house too) I think I'm set even without the impromptu weapons. Though funny thing my Creative Writing class just had a big talk about how impromptu weapons and who they're everywhere and are everything, that was started by this one guy writing about this kid having a nightmare that all the costumed people in Disneyland went psychotic and started massacring the people, and this kid and his friends NEVER found anything to arm themselves with (other than this one girl with serving spoons for like a second) and how that was unsatisfying as a reader since I know not all people have NO survival instinct (of defensive instinct).

An armory!?! You have a fucking armory!?!?

Any suits of armor?

No no armor, but we have (in view of the comp.) 8 kitana, 3 of the middle Japanese set (I never remember that name), 1 tanto (like me!), a saber, a rapier dagger set, a set of sais, a set of kama, sting, blade's sword, a mini claymore, 6 varying European long swords, a full size claymore, a set of two swords in one sheath, a batton blade, a steel fan, 4 sets of mini nunchucks, 5 daggers, and 2 short swords, and those are only the ones that are out and i can see without moving.

The question is: If given a choice between using an instrument designed to kill and maim as it's specific purpose or using an item that may be leveraged for the purpose, which would I use to defend myself? I'm pretty sure I'd have to be an idiot to intentionally choose the lesser weapon.

I don't have a crowbar lying around...so I'd have to use a t-square. >_<

[ProfessorLayton]

I would Dead Rising it up and use anything and everything. Or probably just a car. That way I could get anywhere I want and it runs them over.

 

[Turkey Braveheart]

Cast iron skillet. Effect against zombies and freakin' hilarious!

 

[Anarchemitis]

 

[AwesomeExpress]

I'm reminded of having to use bricks in Timesplitters 3.

 

[Chamale]

I have a big ice cutting axe, and the configuration of our driveway guarantees that I have to attack very thick piles of ice every winter. I've gotten pretty good at aiming at a single spot, even at going from the side to "decapitate" a chunk of ice. So I think I'd prefer that axe to a practice sword, or even the real dagger that I have.

I don't have a picture, but imagine a sledgehammer with a blade on one side of the head. That's my ice cutting axe.

 

[duchaked]

I'd beat them to death with an original Xbox controller.

that would be far more effective than a crowbar =D

but honestly, a melee weapon that's sturdy, dependable, and does a good amount damage would ultimately last longer than anything that uses limited ammunition (in real life, finding ammo would probably be quite hard)

 

[Bored otter]

A set of snooker balls. I'm decent at trowing things really fast. And those balls pack some serious punch (just the right size and weight).

 

[ottenni]

Oh i have two weapons right here, one on the left and one on the right. Yeah.

In all seriousness, a cricket bat. In fact, why would you use anything else.

 

[Tanto-chan]

<_< mayyyyybe. (^_-)

 

[Sephychu]

I would use my Crowbars. That's right, ladies, I have TWO.

Are you preparing for something that we don't know about?

<_< mayyyyyyybe (^_-)

Yes comrade, yes! That picture is made of win.

 

[blaqknoise]

A Sythe

 

[L-J-F]

I'd use my replica Saxon spear

 

[Blindswordmaster]

Everything is a weapon. If you come into contact with a non-weapon, you're obviously not creative enough.
