The Walking Dead Season 5 spoilers look at the issue of the privations of the zombie apocalypse survivors. We’ve been watching apocalypse survivors survive for five seasons now on The Walking Dead. In case you haven’t noticed, they are looking and feeling pretty worn out. Life is hard post-apocalypse and all of those things we take for granted every single day would be appreciated in a way you couldn’t imagine.
What are the things that survivors miss the most in the world of the zombie apocalypse? You can bet they aren’t missing the cell phones and televisions and computers — instead it’s the things none of us really think about on a daily basis. Here’s a list of the things they should miss.
Razors: When our band of weary survivors are out scavenging for food, water, and basic supplies, it’s obvious that shaving isn’t a priority. When you only have five minutes to grab everything you can and the most important thing is foodstuff, then a razor probably isn’t what you’re searching for.
Rick and his Moses-like beards reminds us that razors (and scissors) are in short supply, and we miss them.
Hot Showers: Who doesn’t feel more human after a hot shower? The days of turning on a shower and jumping into a steaming shower are long gone. It’s not even really certain how often our survivors actually get to bathe and we all know how ineffective a sponge bath in the middle of the woods can be. Sure, you can boil hot water over a campfire, but it’s really not the same as a good, hot shower.
Deodorant and Air Freshener: Admit it, you know that the smells surrounding our favorite band of apocalypse survivors are definitely funky. Nobody seems to notice that everyone probably smells of blood, guts, poop, pee, really bad B.O. and stanky breath. We see people getting all up in each other’s faces to talk all the time, but in a real zombie apocalypse you know that you would be giving everyone plenty of personal space.
Don’t you think that everyone once in awhile wishes to have a bottle of Febreze or some deodorant?
Toothbrushes: What do you brush your teeth with in the event of zombies? It’s gotta be pretty nasty to go several days without brushing your teeth. Your breath gets all kinds of funky and your teeth feel like you need to shave them. After all, a diet of squirrel, dog, and earthworms must leave you with some serious breath issues and some nasty teeth. We all know we would miss those toothbrushes!
Toilet Paper: We all need toilet paper. It’s just the way things are. We don’t think about it, but if toilet paper was no longer available, it would certainly become important to you. Wouldn’t it be realistic to see survivors grabbing supplies of food and the like from houses and businesses but also snatching up every stray roll of toilet paper they come across?
Let’s hope we never have to enter the world of The Walking Dead or anything similar, but just think about these things and how much you appreciate having them now. Come back to CDL for more The Walking Dead Season 5 spoilers and news.
