Would You Rather Game (Bunker Edition)

Ninety days. One locked bunker door. Zero do-overs. After watching social media spiral around the whole “90-day Fortress America” idea, I needed a hard reset, so I turned it into a Would You Rather game that’s funny on the surface and brutally revealing underneath.
I walk through the bunker scenario like a real bug-in plan: fully stocked shelter, you and your people inside, and no stepping out for three months. Then the choices start hitting. Do you take the roommate who hums the same song all day or the one who narrates every single action? Spam for 90 days or astronaut ice cream? A perfect toilet that blasts a loud trumpet every flush or no privacy at all? The laughs come fast, but every question points back to practical emergency preparedness: morale, sensory stress, sanitation, water throughput, and the routines that keep a group functional.
We also poke at the gear side of prepping, from weird power constraints (a backup generator that needs bicycle pedaling) to communication tradeoffs (a ham radio where every reply sounds like a pirate). By the lightning round, it’s clear this isn’t just a game, it’s a simple way to pressure-test your preferences and figure out what would actually wear you down in a long shelter-in-place.
If you enjoy practical prepping with a sense of humor and a focus on the human factor, hit play, share it with a friend, and leave a review. What would you pick for your 90 days underground?
