This would likely be my reaction. I would not want to try and survive in the aftermath of a nuclear war. It would be SO MUCH WORSE than movies would have you believe.

Uh have you seen 'Threads'?

Parts of it, yeah. Ugh. In America, we got the much-watered-down (even optimistic, by comparison) The Day After.

I also read a fallout shelter manual from the 50s. The limited steps they could recommend just served to underline how fucked you were. The sentence “don’t wait for help” spoke volumes.
