Idiots hoarding TP AGAIN!
 

I guess the dock worker strike has some idiots afraid that we're going to run out of TP, so there's been a run on it again.

A buddy sent me these this morning. He had to go to 3 stores to find TP.

I stopped on the way home. The first store was out, but the store right next door had some. I bought 1 package.

The best part was that the new Cajun place is in the same shopping center, so I got a boudin ball, a meat pie w/crawfish, and some jambalaya.

Oh fer chrissakes

Is American a nation of retards with diarrhea?

Even during the peak of Covid panic, there was no problem finding toilet paper. Just go to a commercial supply store and buy the larger commercial rolls that don't fit into residential dispensers.

Could it be hurricane related ? Maybe some panic buying along with TP maybe purchased to send to hurricane affected areas ? Just guessing

I prefer to hose mine

Feels cleaner too

Yes. It is. But you've found the average brain tiresome for many years, I'm pretty sure.

On the TV news last night they listed it as 1 of the items that will be In short supply because of the longshoremen strike.

I found the culprit!

The average brain: it’s an indictment of our public school system. :)

I looked last time. Most of our TP is domestic or from Mexico. Not a lot of ships coming from Mexico. I have a neighbor just finishing up his last hoard supply. He had a garage full.

The news editor that came up with this little fear mongering tidbit is an idiot. Virtually all of the toilet paper purchased in the United States is domestically produced. Do people think that their Charmin is going to be sitting in a container on a dock somewhere??

I've still got 6 bundles. I do need water and paper towels though.

Stooopid, stooopid, stooopid me... I kept 2-3 bigly bundles of PT and TP on hand ever since the last fiasco (acquired after the nonsense ceased) .... just finshed 'em all ... thinking... that'll never happen again....

THEY can't be that stupid...

Only me :(

That's the crazy thing. I suspect on the whole, the world is probably actually better educated than it was 100 years ago. I think 100 years ago, more folks dropped out of school or didn't go to school or dropped out earlier. I don't think people are any smarter (or dumber) since I suspect that's got the same basic distribution that it's always had.

I think the big difference is that today, EVERYONE including those on the left side of the curve are able to put their mental acumen out there for all to marvel at and enjoy.

I've always liked this tidbit from MiB.

That's a lifetime supply unless you're married with 6 daughters.

Take Sheryl Crow's advice. Just use one sheet..

It better be 50 ply 😀

Problem solved!

There are plenty of fancier ones but this one is probably the best value.

Once you've had a bidet for a while, you'll agree that TP is one step above caveman and just friggin' gross.

Plus you won't have to worry about TP hoarding idiots.

California causing problems again :D

When we built out our 2 bathrooms, after reading a post here by Vash maybe? we put outlets very near the toilets in both bathrooms. They are great for nightlights, and if we go bidet, we've got power nearby. We've considered it after everything that we've read here.

Maybe this recent toilet paper snafu will be the catalyst for us to finally take the plunge.
