NerdTests.com Test: Can you survive a zombie invasion?

I knew this day would come. Luckily, I have weapons, food for weeks and a plan.
Pfft. Zombie Outbreak. Yeah. Knew it was gonna happen, that's why I moved to the house next to my local supermarket.
Outbreak? Not a surprise. I think I had a pistol around somewhere...
Well, that's something you don't hear everyday. I wonder, does my dad's old pistol still work?
Ha, not to worry. I'm a total pro at Left 4 Dead. I will survive this, despite the fact that I have no weapons at all except for a knife...
AHHH WHAT THE HELL, ZOMBIE OUTBREAK!

What is the very next thing you do?

Watch a movie, seeing as all the channels are dedicated to the zombie outbreak at the moment.
Find your dad's pistol in the attic.
Barricade doors, windows, everything according to your plan.
Go to your room and play some l4d.
Barricade doors.
Throw yourself into the zombie horde, hope it doesn't hurt.

While barricading the windows, a zombie comes walking down the street. He probably won't notice you, because there are other houses who have no barricade as of yet. What will you do?

Grab a gun and blow that zombie's head off.
Keep barricading the windows, leave your neighbours to die...
Walk up to the zombie, poke him and say "Hello! Would you kill me, please?"
Barricading windows? What are you talking about, I'm watching a movie / playing L4D.
Screw barricades, I'm gonna grab all the guns and ammo I can take and leave the house, looking for help.

So, you're out on the street because your house caught on fire, because you were stupid enough to <insert reason here>. Luckily, you took all your weapons (if you had any) with you. You look down the street and there are no zombies in sight. What is the very next thing you do?

AW HELL NO, AND I WAS JUST IN THE MIDDLE OF STAR WARS TOO!
Rally 3 of your neighbours (who's names happen to be louis, zoey and bill), run down the street and randomly yell "RELOADING!" and "BOOMER!" Also, keep your ears out for crying and screaming noises.
Hide at a friend / neighbour's house. As long as they have weapons, of course.
Rally other survivors in your street and try to find help. Maybe the army is providing help elsewhere?
Jump into the fire.

You turn around the corner and see about 50 zombies, aimlessly wandering around. What now?

Suicide.
Quietly walk in the other direction.
Ask your friend, "where the hell did all these vampires come from?", expecting him to respond with "they ain't vampires, man, they're zombies!"
Tell your friends to ready their guns, and be ready to blast a way through the zombie horde.

It is night and pitch-dark. You / your team enters a building. It is dark and feels empty. The power is not working. Of course, you brought a flashlight. What do you do?

Explore the building with your flashlight up. Check for zombies. When a single sound is made, turn it down and keep extremely quiet.
Explore the building with your flashlight down. If you bump into anything at all, fire like HELL.
Barricade the entrance with anything you can find before doing anything else.
Kill yourself.
Perfect hiding spot for a witch. Do I hear a crying noise?

You are exploring the building and find a doorway. The door is smashed down and lays on the ground. You turn around the corner and can here a slight grunting and moaning. What is your next step?

Run in, shoot EVERY SINGLE CORNER.
Yell "HUNTER / BOOMER / SMOKER / WHATEVER!"

Turn your flashlight off. Sneak past the doorway. If the sound grows louder, turn on your flashlight, point it into the darkness in hopes to blind a zombie and blast it's head off.
Fall asleep, dream about pink kittens.
Cry.

There's a stairs. Upon using it, you / your team finds itself on top of the building. Upon peeking down the building to the street, you see massive hordes of zombies running into the building. You know they are heading for you. You / your friend used to work on a near building.
