The Prepper Persona
« on: February 18, 2012, 06:39:51 PM »
Alright so was walking around the flea market today and ran into a buddy of mine. ( non prepper type )

Well apparently they seen the show Doomsday preppers and got to thinkin....

" hmm what would we do if something crazy did happen, and they thought of me & that they would come to my house.  "

Now, being somewhat op sec like I don't really talk about being a prepper I mean, I brag everynow and again when I get some ammo and stuff. But no one knows I store stuff for a callapse or even have a bug out plan.

Why is it they thought of me?

So I guess some of us just emit the " Prepper Persona "

Yeah, been there. Remember that earthquake in Virginia last year? Right after I start getting phone calls with several friends asking me what's up. I'm thinking sure they know I have guns, but why ask me "what's up?" I'm not a scientist. I've kind of settled on the idea now that if something happens I can be expecting a number of calls and even a few people showing up at my door wanting help or answers of some sort. I don't really consider it a bad thing though. Sure they'd cramp my style a bit, but it's kind of flattering to think when people imagine the world going to hell in a hand basket they think of me lol. I think what it really comes down to is the prepper persona you're giving off has been loosely defined by mainstream media already. So when they think about you having guns (as mainstream media makes you sound like a nut as is) they assume you've got a stash of other goodies also. Course, that's just my $.02

Yeah, that's part of your OPSEC, appearing that you're not a prepper.

Nobody ever guesses that I'm a prepper.

If any of you know reaver personally.does he send you random pictures of his dog too? One time I literally had to study the pic for about 5mins to figure out it was an extreme close up of naulas (his dog) insisor.
