    Default The "I know were I'm going" comment

    So I was at my boys baseball game yesterday and as you all probably know there is a diverse group of parents there watching their kids. My ex is there watching the game as well as my other boy. Its a warm and sunny afternoon and most there are in shorts. So it starts to rain and and cool down, I walk to my truck grab my umbrella and jacket and sit down to enjoy the game. My ex, who once told me I was fucking nuts for buy some food stores, is sitting there in the rain in shorts getting drenched. One of the others boys father goes to his car and brings back this big ass umbrella and some jackets and blankets for his wife and other kid. Now he has an extra umbrella and gives it to my ex-wife, soaked dog that she is. She thanks him and he says, "no problem both are cars are fully stocked with food and water and supplies to cover anything like this." To this she says, "I know where I'm going when the shit hits the fan," or something very similar to this. This is the woman that took the emergency kit I built for her and the kids out of the car before a road trip because it took up too much room. I hear this and am thinking, "if it ever goes down I'll be taking the kids and you are liven off the fat stores in your fat ass." But I digress. So back on topic, what is up with these people that think they will just show up and suck on others stuff once the SHIF comes?

    Yep. Why should they have to prepare for anything when others around them are doing it?

    Had a few coworkers say that after they hear about my food and firearm storage. I casually remind them that the firearms are to protect MY food and water. My preps are based on 4 people and 2 dogs, end of f'in story, which I also have to remind my wife of when she says she wants to start up a group with her friends in case SHTF. I'll consider it once I see them start to get their own crap together and have something to contribute.

    Don't you like how offended they get too when you tell them the reality of what will happen when they show up? Or that YOU are not preparing for THEM? Yeah, the wife and I gave up on people in general. Every time we associate with people we always end up with the short end of the stick. Now we only worry about us.
