Yep none here. Idiots. We have no active cases. So what is the justification?

It’s not like the supermarkets and the toilet paper producers shut down when we actually were in lock down. It makes no sense at all.

The space cowboys that tried to return their TP stashes a few weeks ago and got refused must be second guessing that decision right now.

I can bet these are the people that drive down the emergency lane in a traffic jam.

Space cowboys deserve more respect, they are 1/3 of Steve Miller’s The Joker.

For FordForums.com.au members only my business is able to offer a limited number of major landscape gardening projects. Please do not delay! The first ten, $50000+ contracts signed and paid for (Cash or Pay Pal), will insure those members will not miss out.

Do not want to spend the whole of your quarantine period peering out through a gap in your; toilet paper, rice, flour and tinned bean stock pile at a dated landscape? PM me now for my special price!

The people who originally hoarded toilet paper (and sanitiser for that matter) were those who wanted to buy up all the stock and sell it online at a hefty markup once supplies in stores ran out.

A lot of regular people then had problems buying toilet paper when they needed to buy a pack. It's only logical that now those people are going to grab another pack that they otherwise wouldn't because they remembered they had so much trouble the first time around.

Regardless of whether the warehouse had massive stocks that could re-fill the shelves or not, people still went without when they went shopping and couldn't get any. Once bitten yadda yadda

I'm more annoyed at the lack of soap :/

And he had an outrageous hairstyle. But those were sad times when passing ruffians could say 'Ni' at will to old ladies...

Just back from the weekly shopping. Toilet roll aisle was completely empty. Not a single roll.

Went to the frozen food aisle to get some butter.
The smarty pants shift manager had left two pallets of TP in the frozen food aisle.
