Oh, joy. Lemme think.

For robots, it depends in what ways & how many the robots depend on us (making self-conscious robots entirely independent takes a lot of research & isn't the best move for something powerful).
Due to more relaxed legislation around guns, the USA may be better prepared if they do go berserk.

For the rest of the world, where firearm ownership is less integral to the household, make do with what you have; looting shops is more dangerous, so only try if you're daring.

Whether the raw anarchy opens up oppurtunities, or certain dependenices hinder the otherwise formidable force of them, survival & resolution are both excruciatingly difficult but completeable tasks.

As for apes, I dunno. We have the better technology, but we're swimming in it. A smart enough ape might get his hands on something, & their natural muscle may be reinforced ionce they master said tech (basic tech most likely, at first.)
Apes are easier to empathise with, & if you build a bond, you could either further their cause to your own gain, or lessen their mass aggression move from within.

Logic here.

I think i would be best prepared for Robots because the majority are not water proof so just carry a water-gun. (but if their not, carry a tazer.)

Apes, well, they would probably form a little army, and attempt to attack a city and we would shoot them all with tranquilizer darts. (or evacuate and bomb the place)

As for Zombies, the likely hood of a virus capable of mind control is nearly impossible. And parasites try NOT to kill their hosts, the only logical explanation is nano-bots. which could cured by an electrical over load.

Nuclear fall out, well that already happened in japan and were still here so... I'm pretty sure were OK there.

Alien invasion, also this is highly improbable. A: because it's a dumb thing to do on the aliens part because if they can travel from where ever they came from i'm almost certain they can create any resource they want, of harvest them form non populated planets (which would be a heck of a lot easier) the only reason i can see of aliens 'invading' earth is if they were exploring other planets for other life, in that case they wouldn't be considered a hindrance, and would probably be helpful.

As for a meteor strike, the earth is constantly bombarded with them 24-7 but 99.9% of then burn up upon entry. BUT if one significantly large one was going to hit earth we could probably Melt it (if it's mostly ice) nuke it (if its rock) or if is is a mixture of different materials then we could focus light from solar reflectors onto one spot and that would create a crude rocket propelling that poor poor meteor to its demise A.K.A Jupiter/the Sun/the Void of space or some other random place. B.T.W the earth gets heavier by the TONS every day(from meteorite dust)

And a global pandemic if you aren't infected just be the germaphobe you really are. BUT if you are infected than all you need to do is stay away from other people and wait for a cure, or freeze your self in one of those cryogenic freezers until the cure is invented.

And as for the 'Rebbecca Blackopylypse' that is pure silliness and 'the world will end in 2012' is inaccurate because the Mayans didn't have leap years so the Apocalypse would have happened a LONG time ago.

And judging by the unscientifically proven and in all likely hood ineffective 'methods' for surviving or 'reasons' why we wouldn't survive, i deduce that you people play allot of 'Action' video games involving shooting and lots of other forms of violence that would NEVER happen in real life.

There is a parasite, a kind of Fluke, that takes control of the brains of ants, and makes the ants climb up grass stems, and then hang on the stems. The reason being it wants to be eaten, by a rabbit, to complete its life cycle.

In this case, the fluke kills its host. A zombie is still up and moving, whether it is dead or not. Look at 28 Days Later or Left 4 Dead for instances of zombies that are NOT dead, but more like rabid humans. That would be far more likely to happen over slow shambling rotting corpses. But all in all it is highly unlikely, I wanna go ahead and say impossible even.

Nuclear Fallout. My secret lab has all the requirements. Water purifiers, radiation suits, stuff like that.

And due to the fact that my stockpile of high-tech weaponry is so awesome(we're talking hundreds of M200 CheyTac Interventions, Remington ACRs, Desert Eagles, MOABs and MP-5s) I would set myself up as a warlord, taking control of the surrounding countryside and forcing those affected by the radiation(Ghouls and the like) to become slaves in my mines. I would make the rest of the human slaves builders and farmers, and I would create a military made up of the true Bronies. Oh, and I would force the surviving humans to reproduce and make more workers.

What about the I Am Legend apocalypse? Or the...

OneDirectionopalypse.

I suggest you put the Creeper Apocalypse.

Where's Masonicon when you need him...

Sorry, there can only be one socialist dictator, you will have to go.

[ARNOLD VOICE] YOU ARE NOTHING! AAAAAH! THERE IS ONLY ROOM FOR ONE! RAAAAAAAAAH![/ARNOLD VOICE]

How about I rule the Southern Hemisphere, you rule the Northern Hemisphere?

I'm afraid you can split hemispheres between the three of us.
Well, then there's the 4th one of us....

Deal.

That reminds me though, in the event of some kind of mass apocalypse, the markets will be shattered.

What is left of the economy will have to be assessed carefully & shared a bit, to ensure the maximum number of us get through this new era of a ravaged civilization in one piece.

And if anyone is damaged by the apocalypse, some kind of provision will be required to nurse those peopel back onto their feet.

And if many well educated people died, we'd have to ensure a secure system for passing on knowledge, & raising awareness.

Points in a familiar direction....

edit: Oh yeah, the ape-rising? Probably not gonna happen, but, well....

I think the pandemic, if you were immune, would be interesting. Seeing how humans survive the outbreak and how we rebuild.

Ape reminded me of...

I would survive 12/12/12 the same way I survived 11/11/11.


Sleeping, eating, spending time with friends and family, and playing videogames.

I would survive the alien invasion because I am an alien. I'd just ask to board their ship so I can live on their planet.
