Pros and Cons of a Given Post-World World: Mad Max Desert Land

To aid in some decision-making when the time comes, I'm gonna try and outline some positives and negatives having to do with a variety of game-over-but-still-going scenarios.

Mad Max Post-Apocalypse:
For those who haven't seen these movies, I believe (from my faint memories of these movies at the Nesbit household what seems like thirty years ago) that the world consisted of a lot of really 80's hair-y people riding around on motorcycles, motorized tricycles, four-wheelers, and whatever other number of wheels you can hook up comfortable to a gasoline-powered engine, harrassing whatever creatures they found into giving them their random shit, and searching for what? more gasoline for more driving? water? I kind of forget. But basically if you want to be apart of a motorcycle/four wheeler gang and dress up like the Little Giants, then this afterworld life is probably for you. Let's dish out some pros/cons:

Pro: Mel Gibson's craziness is finally at peace with the just-as-crazy-if-not-more people surrounding him. Society don't give too much a damn about what someone says when they're drunk and being arrested when most problems are solved in a fucking Thunderdome (two men enter, one man leaves - someone call Joe Riedel!).

Con: It's dry as hell. If you need moisturizer in this currently serenely humid earth climate (it's still green and blue from far away, not tan and orange), then this will most definitely suck for you. Also, get yoself some frickin' goggles cuz the sands be a flyin'!

Pro: You get drive around like the biggest game of Road Rash ever made, popping off jumps, firing automatic weaponry that's been mounted on your vehicles, and quenching your thirst for speed day in and day out.

Con: This life will inevitably grow tiresome, and it doesn't appear that these savages will care too much to settle down and write poetry or make music or something deeper. But hey, didn't stop 'em from making a shit ton of sequels!

    Ahaha, that's amazing. Being drunk and being arrested--is there a better time to say crazy shit?
