I would understand buying up bottled water, tylenol, canned foods like soup, stuff like that. But the toilet paper thing is just bizarre.

I just checked I have 30 rolls. I should be ok. I have always kept a decent stock of toilet paper and paper towels, just a habit. Where I live the panic shoppers wipe out all the eggs and milk at the Food Lion whenever a winter storm is predicted. Also a wise person doesn't shop when it starts to snow, people lose their minds. shopping carts left scattered all over the parking lot where people drive through like maniacs escaping a burning building. Everybody panics acting like WW3 is coming even if just 2-4" snow is predicted.

Buffalo was a nickname I got in college as I could out eat anybody on the football team. Somebody said I eat as much as a Buffalo and it stuck. I weighed like 225 then but could out eat the 300 lb lineman 2-1 or better. If there was a noon lunch for a 7:30 night game quite a few of us would pig out.

In one of those articles you linked:

Patients with digestive symptoms had a variety of problems, including loss of appetite (nearly 84%), diarrhea (29%), vomiting (0.8%) and abdominal pain (0.4%).

I think the heavy loss of appetite numbers would more than counteract the diarrhea numbers as far as toilet paper needs would be.

LOL yeah I'm not saying this is reason for toilet paper shortage,I was just saying the narrative that this doesnt cause digestive issues is false.

I picked the right time to go on a 40 day dry run. To work and home for the most part. And we have small office.

The fact that I can’t find toilet paper anywhere is really pissing me off. I have two rolls in reserve so normally that’s when I go buy another 4 pack. Are people planning on shitting 5 times a day or something? FFS it’s like when the grocery stores are packed when there’s 6 inches of snow coming. Just retarded.

My girlfriend does the same thing and has two adult sons living in her house. Unless you have no storage space I don't understand why people don't keep more reserves. I keep plenty of spares on most everything. Things like shaving cream, eye drops, toothpaste, razors, etc I pretty much have two spares. Even kitchen supplies, coffee, cooking oil, tea. I am not a hoarder just will never accidentally run out of something.

I haven't purchased toilet paper in a store in years. Amazon and it arrives in two days.

I see now. My buddy sells office supplies stuff so maybe I should buy 10 boxes, each with 100 rolls and sell them on ebay.
