Why the run on toilet paper in the us? I still saw soap but not toilet paper of all things. All of my nearest grocery stores are out.

>hear people are making a run on toilet paper and hand sanitizer
>don't want to without tp and sanitizer seems like a good idea in a containment situation like wuhan and lombardy
>everyone buys more than they need based on perceived need
>people see toilet paper running out and buys more to stock up themselves so they don't end up without toilet paper
>a few crafty bastards hedge that water will still be running and get bidet attachments on the cheap
You know.
Just like the stock market.

I just don't understand why people aren't buying canned sardines, tuna, etc. and choosing to buy fucking TP of all things. Stupid normalfags.

Maybe it's better that we have a real pandemic to wipe out the normalfags.

It's fucking weird. I thought it was just a meme, but all the stores around me are out of TP too. of course, everything else is fully stocked. you'd think food would be considered more essential if you were actually worried about the supply chains being interuptted, but no....everyone wants TP. when I was there today, some guy in the aisle saw there was no TP, so he filled his cart up with kleenex boxes. kek. its fucking stupid

The joke is on all of these tools. I wash my butthole in the shower after I poop. I haven't spent a dime on toilet paper since I got my own place.

Coping mechanism. The MSM has fear levels cranked up, so normal retards think they can have power in a powerless situation by obsessing over toilet paper.
The logging and paper industry are booming thanks to it, though, most TP sold in the US is made domestically, or in Canada or Mexico (the earth hippies shut down a lot of mills in new england, sadly.) There isn't a shortage of TP, we can make plenty, there's just a supply line issue, because TP is usually a slow moving product, and most outlets don't stockpile it. You'll see plenty on the shelves next week, the trucks moving the resupply are already on the way.

>> No.17790397

>>17790311
yeah totally. that's what's weird. there's no shortage of any other essential at the grocery stores near me...just TP. I think we probably really are living in a simulation and memes are bleeding into reality desu.

Can you screw on a garden hose? That's literally all it takes, you just install it onto the water feed from the wall. If you can't wrench the water line off a toilet, you fail as a man.

it's a meme started by TP companies to gain money and to make their stonks more valuable.

Just wanted to go regular non prepper shopping like a normal fucking person but my Aldi's was out of a good chunk of stuff other than just TP. but that's okay because we don't live in a communist shithole so goods will be back on the shelves soon.
