Well, I'm a great cook, so when we all turn to cannibalism for survival I could probably think of some fantastic recepies.

You could think up amusing names for ^ his ^ otherwise gruesome recipes... to take the edge off :p
Well he'd probably need a HAND to make them!

Puns are useful in the apocalypse also.

I'm a good public speaker, and I have been told I am exceptionally good at rallying people and raising morale, so I guess I'd be some form of motivator, then. Plus, I learn quickly, so I could help out with more menial tasks, like raising children or building houses/tools.

I just watched Dr Strangelove, so I guess I can assume that the world certainly has a scarce american and russian population.
Thats beside the point, I just thought it was odd to see the thread the minute I finish that film.
By trade I'm a software developer. I guess I cannot assume we still have workable computers. I can, however, mix a mean cocktail and play a couple of instruments, so I guess I'd be involved in entertainment, keeping survivors spirits up! :D

I can make a mean Chilli Con Carne and I'm a catalogue model. I will be the sexy chef!

Also, I work in a hardware store so I know which end of the hammer is the hitting side. I will make shelves to put your things on.

I can fish. I was raised in the country, so I learned survival skills at a young age. Tracking, growing, fishing, finding food, identifying plants, and most importantly, building fire for your rockets.
In a nuclear war almost all those skills are gonna count for shit.
That doesn't make any sense. Those are basic survivalist skills. OF course they're going to help. They won't help you if you're right in the blast radius of a bomb, but then nothing is going to help you. When we are no longer able to simply go to the store to buy food from the supermarket, we're going to have to scavenge our own food from the local environment. Being able to track animals, plant and care for plants, fish, and identify wild plants are immensely helpful.
He means there will be no plants,animals and etc. Nevertheless, useful! It'd be even harder when they are scarce.

I can be fairly hardworking when I want to be. So I'd just follow the leader and do whatever I need to do to help out. I'm a pretty fast learner too, and I don't suck at anything too badly, so I guess I could do anything if I put my mind to it. I don't have any particular skills, unless 'able to bear children' is an important post-apocalyptic skill. I sincerely hope it isn't.

Oh, and I can keep people on track. It mostly involves jumping up and down and waving my arms to get people's attention so I can yell at them for shirking their duties.

I'm a survivalist. I can track, identify defensible positions, fortify said positions, identify plants, fire most firearms pretty well and cook reasonably. I'm also 6'5" and to quote co-workers "built like a brick sh%thouse".

i can't fire a bow though, and can be not the easiest guy to get along with so i'll most likely be the quiet badass that the group has as backup when TSHTF

or i'll just go solo and badass it up on my own.

Although I'm fat now my body type would be perfect for this type of situation. Not only would I still be big due to how my body is but I'm also freakishly strong and can handle myself in a close quarters fight. I'm also skilled in blacksmithing and forging and I'm handy with a hammer as far as wood working goes.

I also can kill people if I have to but I would rather refrain from actually killing them. If I have to though it will be up close with them looking me in the eye.

My only down sides are I will be out of shape at first but will get in shape very quickly, I have bad eye sight, and I have a strong sense of honor (so no rapin' my womens else you're getting a 12lb blacksmithing hammer upside the head).

Also Mt. St. Helens? Really? I know plenty of people who live through that *yawn*

Lets see, I can strip and clean and oil all of my stepdad's guns as well as an M4, SR25 and an F88 AUSTYER, I know how to make a fire, fish with a bow and arrow/spear, set up a shelter, fire and calibrate firearms and firearm sights, I'm pretty healthy and I have good stamina too.

Yup, seven years in Army Cadets does things to ya. ;P
