Hoarding toilet paper and other stuff

Olivethefet · Mar 17, 2020

The toilet paper thing is nuts, I agree. It's not just people going crazy buying everything they can get their hands on. I work in a specialty chemical company. We make low volume high value chemicals. We are currently getting hammered by customers double and tripling down on orders. We are shipping partial orders just to try to keep everyone happy. Thing is, just like the people with all the TP, when this is over they aren't going to order anything for 6 months because they have a stock pile. This is insane.

My son is a Plant Engineering Supervisor at UPS Worldport and has to lock all the supply cages so the employees wont run off with the TP.

Since Caronavirus is related to SARS and a common cold, I figured Facial tissue would be hoarded, and I suppose Poise and Depends pads for the leak prone.
How bad is this going to be if we have to sneeze from the wrong end?

Have you ever sneezed while on the toilet? Its nothing but shower time afterwards.

What I have a hard time figuring out is why people are panic buying food? Especially food with a short shelf life. Panic buying food like the two weeks of food they are buying is gonna keep them safe throughout this whole thing. Can people not see that this is not something they can hide from for a couple of weeks? People need to try to get their fear under control.
Then the other side of that coin are those idiot teenagers and college spring breakers out there partying it up. Or the teens that are going around coughing on fresh produce in stores?
makes you wonder exactly what these people are thinking.

The fact that anybody is surprised by this is also hard to believe. People are idiots. Walk into any story knowing this, and the surprises become much less frequent.

I had to yell (from a distance) at a couple of my younger neighbors for having parties this weekend. Most of the 35+ people in my neighbor seem to be taking this seriously and reducing contact as much as possible.

As a general rule of thumb I try to think the best of people so I don't depress myself. I don't think I can keep that up anymore, the level of self-centeredness and stupidity is mind boggling.

Saberdemon its time to put those rifled back on your collarbone man. Grab that poncho liner, those MRE that you have in the garage, a Zippo, the bayonet you "lost" when you had to ETS and an extra pair of socks.

Saberdemon · Mar 23, 2020

Lol. I am Damn sure done with that aspect of my life. Never did enjoy having some wet behind the ears LT trying to run my Platoon. Now I am Happy keeping my family and friends nice and safe. Plus, I live by my own ROE.

I will Grant you one thing about this whole mess. I have Seen families spending actual quality time together outside more. Taking walks, playing in their yards, and older couples spending time outside with each other as well.
Takes a pandemic to get a lot of people to figure out what’s important in their lives. Lol

Oh I'm with you on the R.O.E. Mine are very easy. Dont be on the business end.

Noobz347 · Mar 23, 2020

While you Nancies sit around wringing your fingers about what everyone else is doing, I've been putting this "quality time" to good use:

Looks like your NASA (Needs Another Seven Astronauts)
Premature Detonation?
Failure to Launch?
Cooking with the wrong fuel?

This is why you don't use Tannerite for rocket fuel.
