No... hell, I can't even understand Shakespearean English, how the hell am I going to understand stone age English? Or whatever language they're speaking....
I might make some friends with teaching them about fire... but that's about it.

I live in a place where I haul my water and bathe by the fire but I do have electricity and internet so I guess that would be hard to adjust but we would eventually do it. We are an adaptive species

This keeps reminding me of what a counsellor in the drug rehab place said to a group of us : ' In case of a catastrophe, who better to get to help but an addict, -they aren't lazy..lying in bed, waking up with a yawn,wondering how the days is going to go...-no, they are already up trying to get stuff happening so they can get what is needed. ..They would be good at organizing and getting things done. They have a driving work ethic. They face rough stuff with knowledge... So I think society will be alright as long as there are enough drug addicts around to hire. They have to promise not to steal, though

Nah. Not to mention the lack of medical stuff. People would die from simple infected cuts, let alone those who wouldn't be able to live or function without prescriptions for various things

Yes. I grew up outdoors back in the dark ages, so I could survive. If all my loved ones were gone, I wouldn't want to survive.

@exexec until some of us little people came by and asked for advice and pulled at your sleeve and pleaded: ' please....'

I've always romanticized a post apocalyptic world. I'm bored and angry with how easy life is.

Make it tough on yourself
Get rid of all modern stuff
Crap in bucket, not a toilet
Throw away the cellphone (I never had one)
Cut wood for heat

You know what? Thanks for reminding me about DuckDuckGo. I've recently discovered (personally) that Google is predatory and invasive.

I would not expect to; I am a soft modern human. I would just hope to die soon of starvation rather than by being killed and eaten by tougher survivors.

NOT without significant training and prep!

You start training before you need it

Maybe. Other humans trying to do the same thing might be a significant obstacle though. And I guess I also have to ask "for how long"
HumanEarth · 51-55, M
Everyone thats survives will live though it for the rest of their lives.
