Is this a hard pill to swallow? Because I cant unhinge my jaw that wide?

Where all the TP is going:
TwilightStormfox
I overheard a conversation between someone saying to be considerate of the others, and the two cart shopper flicked them off. No reasoning.
goflyblind
144? that's gross.
wookietiddy
Underrated comment.

Dozen it just make you wanna gag?

SometimesIpostfood
I've got 4.5 rolls, hoping it gets me through. Here's to hoping for good tummy days.
iamalreadyaghost
1 person buys mass TP 10 ppl see. 10 ppl buys mass TP on and on till hive mind thinks shortage will happen. Stores empty
NotACanadian
Drew: "Stu, you sure you have enough toilet paper?" Stu: "Yeah, I wanted to be safe so I bought a gross." Drew: "Stu, that's 144 rolls!"
Donku83
Don't judge their bowel movements
theymademecreateanaccount
As a former janitor / sanitation engineer in a grocery store. This happens more often than you think.
Chevy21337
In a week there will be a toilet paper glut and the whole industry will collapse. It's corn cobs and Sears catalogues from here on out.
FlameArath
“14 days”. Man I miss this optimism
genericanamoly
But hey! Get a bidet!
mirasie
A 12 pack lasts me 3 weeks+. People be crazy
kushmonk2

kushmonk2
or just take a showerr im so confused
thepunchline710
But I have to flush 10 to 14 times each poop

Obviously their expectation is this will be going longer than 14 days. If you're not over the age of 60 and/or immune compromised you...
JifLover
shouldn't be doing anything different with the exception of not being in close contact with old / immune compromised people.
jappie348
what made people think they needed to stock up on toilet paper. it boggles my fucking mind.
NauticalToaster
My family is 4 rolls away from having a major problem and I can't find any in the stores where I live. :(
Pronagade
I ordered a 48 pack online, there were none in any ships nearby
bumblebeerumble
U only need 3 sheets one up, one down, & one to polish.
designNow
It’s not really about sticking up. They are reselling for higher price to make profit
SmugandFurry
To who?
designNow
I posted an image of an eBay page where a user is selling 4 squares of toilet paper for 99 cents
KnightLite
If you see this, I would recommend reporting them to your state attorney general's office.
aburkhGod
People are expecting it to last longer than 14 days. And they could be right.
SuperPickle17
14 days isn't enough for covid... we'd need atleast a month to get things back under control.
Bonsaipanda
And when they come out of the quarantine the virus will still be waiting for them. It's not like it's going anywhere.
RenaissanceFaireMan
Some houses have 5 or 6 people. Might have kids out of school...teenagers.
RogueMachinae
A few schools are now shut down for the next two weeks here in DFW
Pirate44
anybody heard of water?You can use it to wash anything
RenaissanceFaireMan
BC2k2
I can feel his poor little heart breaking :'(

Cavin311
Randy might need something bigger than a poop knife but is it a poop bastard sword, claymore or scimitar?
stopdropandrollout
Hot! Hothothothot!
Donku83
AveryJuanZacritic
That's still only one roll's worth.
Bunhyung
That's the right way to do it, hold it and go once a month. No problem.
Iamdarkwingduck
Still only needs to wipe once though
AsUpSoBelow
And he didn't shit for days. For once randy is a good example
cooperBandit
Man you're a pro
meowuse
I genuinely need to get some but every store is out
Pirate44
water,wash with water
RogueMachinae
If no paper products go to the home Depot and get a giant bag of those rags. Have a bucket and wash. Or toss in the garbage.
taciturnpachyderm
Huggies and then throw them in the trash (don't flush them). Or get a cheap bidet attachment.
meowuse
Wipes are out but guess the bidet it an option
madmatt2024
A coworker said when she went to pick up her order from Walmart the TP and paper towels had been canceled from her order too.
BC2k2
My wife works at Walmart. They didn't even unload the pallets - people were grabbing whatever was on top not even caring about brands.
Opportunist
Baby wipes.
meowuse
Those are out too
CatsUpvoteTerror
Household of 6 with 4 teenage boys fo through a lot of TP.
OmegaZen
Ge a bidet.
Iputthebestinbestiality
Tell them to use a sock or towel instead and the TP should ld last much longer
Sebmat3410
Or a hose
mikeatike
But how do you even know how much you are getting?
RenaissanceFaireMan
Toilet paper math, crazy how nature do that!
CANADIANMIST
Super mega
GaryCXJk
Actually, the data is incomplete, for example, what's the price of each pack, what's the quality of the paper, etc.
SomeDetroitGuy
In the US at least, all of them very clearly tell you the total square footage the package contains.
FartSymphony
But many have a thickness as well that results in even more equivalent sheets pretty square foot.
ShawnS0l0
Thats why i only got 120, ppl are taking this way too far
TheRealDeadBird
And here I thought I was splurging when I bought two 6 packs.
woodchucc3211
I have a large anus and I only got an 80 pack
WarTortilla
We were having a hard time finding toilet paper until my dad found some at staples online and somehow accidentally ordered a pallet. We good
LurkerOfDarkness
And I say you don't take this too far enough.
PipeandSlippers
I got a roll of 40 grit sandpaper. That’s all I need to blast my ass back to Narnia
laton
Asslan?
TwilightStormfox
HAH narnia
LePiggy
But if you go from 60 to 120 why not just go the little bit further for 144 so you can use more and be smoother
fruktsalat
Your butt can't sense more than 30 though
LePiggy
Maybe a peasant butt can't but a glorious one can
FlatulentFerret
Butt a glorious can can fify
RawSuger
italy the 14 days quickly became 14 weeks. it makes sense to be prepared especially when you might get too sick to shop.but think of others
laton
Way to fuel the hysteria dipshit. "It MaKeS SeNsE...blah blah blah". And then you end it with "HaVe A nIcE dAy!". Sheeple
RawSuger
what i did was stock extra early and via online shopping, and not insane amounts. ppl can/should do that, not empty shopping malls
THEfreshestbrew
14 WEEKS!!?
sanjisama
Could you imagine
RawSuger
virus doesnt just go away after a brief vacation so yeah. ppl still work from home etc tho and its only part of italy on lockdown
ArtOzz
Its survival outside the human body is 3 weeks last I heard. Inside it's more like 2. So, yeah, wtf, 14? That's like 3.5x the necessary.
ArtOzz
*Just in case you're wondering about my math there; 4 weeks is more than enough, * 3.5 makes 14 weeks.
RawSuger
the isolation isnt total, people still get sick just at a rate manageable by hospitals. 14 weeks is when most ppl have been infected
Semiflaccid
Well fortunately the rest of the world didnt get fucked to the degree of Italy.
AawesomeAardvaark
Yet. There's no reason to think the US has this under control at all.
RawSuger
this. its coming, especially to places that dot take precautions. its the same virus, not like it only targets meatballs
Semiflaccid
Def not. It's not under control but we have a better headstart on it than Italy. Just due to how quickly it spread there so early in the -
Semiflaccid
Outbreak
AawesomeAardvaark
We have no clue how widespread it is in the US, we are barely testing for it. We are far behind the curve here.
Semiflaccid
Can we make that a scale. Like how fucked are you kn a scale of 0-italy
Saiphel
Hello from Italy. Yay.
drunkenm
Everyone is getting Italy level fucked, it's purely a matter of time.
Semiflaccid
I dont think itll get that bad here. So long as the general population doesnt ignore the self quarantine. I'm not holding my breath -
Semiflaccid
Tho with the knuckle dragging mouth breathers that populate most of this country
sanjisama
Hah
drunkenm
Self quarantine doesn't matter. It has no symptoms in far too many people, it will spread. It might spread slower, but more likely delay.
