So there's an apocalypse (hypothetically, I'm not one of those people who carry a vial of lethal poison around waiting for the world to end). Almost 90% of the world's population is wiped out (a little over half a million people left worldwide). You found one survivor a week later(whoever you want). What would you do after the collapse of society? (For fun, to survive, etc.)

Really? You're that stupid to do that in survival mode. You're an idiot. Oh, and your second post.... SPAM.

Easy answer my friends. I would ensure that me and the other survivor were an odd couple (this is the comedic part of my plan). Then I'd wait until the big bad or his mooks killed my newfound sidekick. This would make my life Darker and Edgier possibly sending me over the despair event horizon - leading to me becoming a heroic sociopath on a roaring rampage of revenge. This will eventually lead to me using my tranquil fury to defeat the undefeatable by taking him with me.

I think that answers your question - and shows how addicted to TVtropes I am.

Since it can be anyone I want I will go with my girlfriend. I'm thinking for fun maybe work on repopulating the world. >

Masturbation releases stress. I'd imagine you'd be very stressed not knowing if everyone you once knew had died or not.

Thanks for not explaining why it's stupid and finishing off that post with something that is not warranted. I'd say that your post was spam.

Repopulation? Well, with such a bottleneck situation you wouldn't go far, but I assume you don't care I'd do the same^^
What I would do would really depend on the situation, but let's say I'd first try to survive and get a shelter; meaning I start hunting and planting eatable plants (roots are just as good), and when I have time left, look for a convenient place to stay and reinforce it. On encounter with survivants I'd first try to find out their attitude, and if they're friendly make everything to stick together. Organisating a stable and sustainable structure would be primordial. If we would use ressources faster than they replenish, we would have to adopt a nomadic way of life. The more survivants, the more we can split work, the more we can advance. Over time I think building a village would even be imaginable. Reinforced of course, in case there are parasites like bandits running around. Yeah, and from there on everything's possible really..

Repopulation seems to be my choise.
Probably I'd look for shelter, more survivors and maybe build a town.
Like a new beginning

Well I would want the person to be my friend brandon because we're both into guns and we're pretty strong. I would want a Mp5 if I got a gun with plenty of ammo he would probably want an M16 first build a shelter then look for non contaminated food and water

...with plenty of ammo...

The only thing about that is you would have to make your own bullets if you couldn't find any as there would be nobody making them in factories.

You would be able to find some bullets by the destroyed factories

Alaska doesn't apocalypse. But in the case it somehow does, I would find shelter and hole up in there. Every now and then I would go and search for survivors, food, or weapons.
I would also set up traps by my shelter to keep any unwanted visitors out, and have some sort of thing that releases a giant block (or similar large object) tied to a rope, so it swing down and bashes their face in. After that, I would chop em up, cook em, and eat em.
