Pentagon Recommends Nation Play Through All ‘Fallout’ Video Games In Preparation For Imminent Nuclear Apocalypse

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Hot on the heels of yet another ballistic missile launch in North Korea, the Department of Defense recommended Tuesday that all citizens begin playing through a binge gaming marathon of the Fallout series of video games in order to prepare for life in the nuclear wastelands.

Speaking on an emergency public broadcast video, Secretary of Defense James Mattis stated that all Americans should consider picking up all of the core Fallout games, should they wish to have the experience and skills necessary to survive the coming nuclear winter.

“These games teach essential survival techniques, like how to fight off any mutants, scavengers, or nuclear cults that might attack you and your family after you exit your secure fallout-proof vault,” Mattis said. “Important skills like hoarding bottlecaps to trade for custom gatling lasers or raider power armor are also covered by most of the games in the franchise.”

Here in WV we joke that, if the apocalypse happens, we won’t know about it until six months later.

Why is Three Dog better than CNN and all the other fake news outlets?

Because he's bringing you the TRUTH... no matter how BAD it hurts.

Love some of the other headlines on that site such as the one that said Trump rescinded the pardon for one of the Thanksgiving turkeys that made the traditional White House visit because he immigrated from Mexico. Too funny! I’m guessing some of the folks from the Weekly World News are doing double duty at that site too! LOL

So is the gubmint going to issue everyone the games and the game console of their choice? They want us to be prepared, right?

Why have we not destroyed North Korea to save this country and our beloved people?

I love West Virginia. Friendliest folks to complete strangers in the country, by far. I’ve made two trips to raft the New River Gorge. Great time.

We’re transplants, but we love the state.

The state’s two favorite people seem to be Jesus and Trump.
