In response to "Okay, I'm finally doing it - getting a go bag. Here's what I'm ordering..." by colin 👻💦🍆

I've thought about getting one, but realistically, I don't live in an area that would really require one.

Yeah we get hurricanes occasionally but that's mainly just "buy extra food and liquor".

Responses:

Yeah, my plan is basically to call around and go crash with someone. Unrelated, can I have your phone number? -- nm - 💀 Skully 💀 Oct 26, 12:32 1
- Sure it's 555-867-5309 - Psycor Killer Oct 26, 12:34
Same. Only situation I can think of where we might conceivably need to leave in a hurry would be if something happens to the nuclear power plant. - znoooooooo!!! Oct 26, 12:23 4
- Ours would be when the fault goes and we’d have nowhere to go. - spamlet Oct 26, 13:07
- hmmm I'm not sure how far away the closest one is to me. I should check. - Psycor Killer Oct 26, 12:25 2
  - I just checked, and oh. I guess there are at least two within 5 miles. -- nm* - 💀 Skully 💀 Oct 26, 12:51
  - Looks like it’s a little further away from me than I thought, closer to 15 miles. -- (edited) - znoooooooo!!! Oct 26, 12:32
we lost power for a week or so one winter, so figure the worst it does it take up a little space; but if needed it is ready to roll -- nm - Booooooker Oct 26, 12:23 1
- I have a gas fireplace and gas water heater and a camping stove. So if I lose power I should be good for a few days. - Psycor Killer Oct 26, 12:26
I had one, and took it apart. -- nm - 💀 Skully 💀 Oct 26, 12:20
i don't think we'll need it, but i think it's just peace of mind..everything is kind of crazy, i'd rather be prepared than running around. -- nm - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 26, 12:19 3
- my thing with a go bag is that you have to keep everything charged and what it I want to wear those shoes before the world ends and etc etc etc - amanda jeans Oct 26, 12:50
- No I get it. Some people are in crazy areas with fire, flood, civil unrest. I'm really lucky and I know it. - Psycor Killer Oct 26, 12:20 1
  - Now in the winter time I do usually keep an extra bag in the car with snacks, clothes, etc just in case. - Psycor Killer Oct 26, 12:24
