I didn't have to stock up since they produce it here. Funny seeing people buying up all the tp here, only to see the shelves restocked soon after. Whatever, fools will be foolish.

What good is that TP going to be if there's no food to eat?

We’ve always been prepared for any disaster. So all of these items people are hoarding - toilet paper, paper towels, canned goods, and pasta... I have enough to last me a very long time. I just need to replenish my perishables!

I think stocking up on TP is giving people a false sense of security and they feel more in control of things. It’s bizarre.

As I understand it, the stockpiling of TP started in Australia. In Australia their TP is made in China. And when China started shutting down the borders, they started to grab what they could because there was the chance that there wouldn't be more for a while. Then the people visiting Australia brought the idea home that this virus means needing TP, and it snowballed from there.

In Canada and the USA, there is no need to stockpile TP. And as Aeolian has said, worst case scenario there is lots out there to wipe with.

How to conserve TP the poorman's way.

First, sit on the throne and do your duty.

Then, gently break off one square of TP then fold it in half twice, to the size of a small square.

Now, carefully tear out the thickest corner and set it to the side.

Unfold the square of TP. There should be a small hole in the very center. Put the index finger of your duty hand through the hole.

You are now prepared for action. Once complete, simply lay the corners of the square over your dookey finger and grab tightly with your free hand.

In one swift motion, pull the TP square from your finger. This acts ***ass a squeegee, cleaning your finger most effectively.

Don't forget to use the corner you tore out. Comes real handy when you need to get under the fingernail.

You'll never go back once you experience wiping like this.

I got two four packs of toilet paper when all this started going around. That will last me a pretty good amount of time, at least until I can find some more.

I didn't feel like I needed a whole shelf full.


What BLOWS me away though, is that in these 'modern times' something like this can still panic us into running out of alcohol and some aloe vera gel......

This is the saddest part of it all.


I just didn't know we could run out of rubbing alcohol this isn't the 1900's...

Yeah. While everyone was at the store on a major horde, I couldn't find a cheap package of Cup O Noodles.

Had a small flat of berries yesterday but nothing substantial or the day before. No food here, also.

With the lock-down, some news agencies are now focusing their attention on the number of people at the grocery store...because it seems to be the focal point in which you could contract the virus...
I bet the fuckers making these reports has plenty stocked up.

Yep. Everything is going just as I said. Here come the mandatory vaccines.
