Well, I can pretty much assure you none of the GUYS will be laying

but if she only bought roosters you have bigger problems!

Hope you have a little space on your property, chickens can smell and attract a lot of bugs. When the snakes come put golf balls in the coop, they wont come back after trying to eat one of those

I actually had that very thought earlier today!

This whole TP affair may drive me to purchase a commercial-style TP dispenser that takes 2-3 of those monster-sized rolls for my home throne room.....

I bought 2 full pallets of toilet paper from costco when this all began. Im set for Corvid-19 if it ever comes.

You will have to wait for another outbreak that causes diarrhea dummy

you can't be serious, you would need an 8' truck bed to haul that away.

did they really load two pallets of toilet paper into a truck with a forklift!?!

RickFLM4 · 03-18-2020, 03:51 PM

Where do you even store 2 pallets of TP? Also it’s COVID-19, not CORVID, and it’s already here. And people wonder why there’s no TP for anyone else to find...

hahaha great catch on my typo lol. We should be good the proximity to the house/outdoor kitchen/pool/kids play area, if not I've got another ~100 feet I can move it in between the pines on the back of our property... and if that's not enough well I do love fried chicken.

Expanding and in addition to the above:

No collapsible buttstock
No pistol grips
Microstamp requirement basically outlaws sales of any models newer than 2010 to private citizens
10 round limit
No Supressors
Background checks for ammo purchases
No out of state ammo purchases to bring back in
No shipment of ammo (online purchases, etc)
As of the implementation of the california "real ID", ammo, gun purchases must be made using a "real ID". If using a standard driver's license, it must have another official form of ID. like a passport
No purchase of a firearm that california considers an "Assault weapon"
To expand on the above, we can't have AK47s. You can buy an exact copy of one, it just can't be called an "AK47"
No bullet buttons on rifles (quick release mag)
10 day waiting period between buying and picking up your gun
No open carry
Nearly impossible CCW

There's more, this is all i remember off the top of my head. But if you were an actual criminal, how effective would any of the above be in stopping you

GMC yukon xl took it all in stride, but i just put all the paper into carts and wheeled them to check out. Storage unit is full.

RickFLM4 · 03-18-2020, 06:21 PM

Ok not a dumb panic buy but here are some dumb people. Does that count?

story checks out, still very puzzling behavior, at least you won’t have to buy toilet paper again for a couple of years

JM98 · 03-18-2020, 08:31 PM

Went to my local grocery store today and it seems the only thing they are out of is toilet paper, milk, bread, and junk food like chips and frozen meals. The entire meat and produce sections look just like they would normally any other day, interesting to see what people prioritize.

In a pending disaster I would think the more nutritious options would go first. Go figure.

Let us know how all that hoarding of toilet paper helps you if you get COVID-19.

Not to toot my own horn but once you guys all run out of tp and the tp factories all shut down and global supply withers up... you'll look back to this thread and realize 'that wakka guy was ahead of the curve. '

At this point you're either a.) dumb as shit or b.) trolling

Please you guys can't be serious. I've lived in Florida long enough to know when a hurricane is comin you buy all the generators. In Lowe's and Home Depot.

It's the same idea here. It's just survival of the fittest
