Since everyone has gone healthy, cigs aren't a currency anymore.

Thinking a bit more on this I think my plan C after the shirts run out is to just do what my dogs do and drag my ass across the carpet or lawn. I figure if I do it out on the lawn it'll give the neighbor a good laugh while they're quarantined.

Dogs do that because their anal glands need to be purged. I can help you and send you some big ass clamps.

Because you want TP on hand if your town gets "New Rochelle-d" or "Italy-ed".

I thought they did it because it feels good. Not that I'd know how it feels..

You can’t eat TP but you can use a Mac and cheese packet to wipe your azz.

It’s because when someone sneezes, everyone schits themselves

My question is: WHY are people stocking up on water? Has the water stopped in Wuhan or Milan? TP makes sense to me, water, not so much.

RWebb 03-12-2020 02:11 PM

it might if the guys that run the filtration plants, tmt. dam operations get sick

fire or earthquake are risks to the water supply

I stock water all the time, despite owning some camping filters...

Two Tips:

1. always be prepared to camp or 'camp' in your house for a couple of weeks water/food/first aid/ etc.

2. visit your friendly neighborhood LDS/Mormon and get a tour of the basement - they know what they're doing in terms of being ready for a disaster

Imagine if there was a massive EQ right now in CA. Perfect storm and all of those prepper weirdos would be vindicated.

I wanted to get a Costco chicken for lunch. Crazy lines from the back of the store to the front, so I said f that! I could have stood in line, ate the whole chicken and still not reach the cashier!

Wouldn't that be something if only the weirdos have enough toilet paper, food, water, and masks to ride this thing out? They would be totally vindicated.

Charge $40 for a can of Spam to the "this is less lethal than a common flu" people.

For the weird conspiracy theory believers I offer this:
A Kroger employee told us that the reason for the TP shortage is that the paper tubes it is rolled on are made in China, and China isn’t shipping it anymore.

WPOZZZ 03-12-2020 02:47 PM

Ironic. The people stocking up are scared of getting the coronavirus, but there is mass concentration of people in line.

The panic buying finally hit SW Oklahoma.

I drove by a Walmart/Sam's complex and the parking lot was packed full. Cars stopped on the street trying to get into the parking lot.

I gave an acquaintance that basically lives week to week 200 bucks to go buy a stockpile of food. He said there was no water, paper products, disinfectant spray or towels, can good were very low, and he had to wait 5 minutes just to get a buggy.
