6. The weak see the end of the world as a chance to be strong. The strong see it as a way to be
whatever they want.

Seriously...nobody ever puts themselves in the role of one the sheep running through the street while the apocalypse is happening. They see themselves as heroes, or even villains...the main characters of new adventure.

And the reality never sinks in. That the "end of the world" would never be the fun time they think it would. Working in a cubicle and coming home to your small, ratty, but comfortable apartment is way better than sleeping in an alley while the rats bite your limbs and savages rape your family.
