RE: Taking in new members post shtf
Families are not renowned for sticking together in this modern nucleated family age. It won't be all I have because I will not be limiting my outlook to my family. They know what I do now and they regard it as eccentric. They also know inside that I am a back up for them - so that they can comfortably carry on being ignorant and bathing in the tide of materialistic sheepdom. This gets my goat up (baaa) and so long ago I came to terms with the fact that if they will not lift a finger for themselves and even to the extent of taking the piss in the way of using me and my labours as a back up plan, so they don't have to lift that finger in the first place!! -- I have devised a cunning plan... They can all F**K off in any SHTF scenario. The shutters will be down there will be short shrift for them! I have told them a few times - without the swearing and graphic additions but with a straight face - that I would shoot them if they turned up here (lol - I know, tis funny int it!!), usually around the time of the after Xmas dinner drinks when they might venture to have a sideways poke of fun at my claimed excess of supplies. They hope to get a rise out of me and I sort of jokingly shoot that one back across their bows. They leave it at that thinking I am joking but not quite sure. (the wide stern eyes but slight corner smile helps) It must be a joke of course they think, as I am family and it would be my duty.
Well, they have been warned on more than one occasion - can't be fairer than that.....
