Franch Toast 27,737 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 The way people hoarded toilet paper, hand sanitizer, cleaning supplies, hand soap, flour, and yeast during the first few months of the pandemic, none of this surprises me.

Usually this panic buying is done by the white trash rednecks in the rural parts of NC. It makes me nauseous seeing how animalistic humans get over something useless. Just wait until we have a natural disaster and there is a real shortage of fuel. America really is doomed with this shortage of common sense. 11 hours ago, MonsterJay said: I live in NC, fueled up sunday and was off monday and Tuesday. i’m amazed at the amount of people panic buying the past 2 days This happened back in San Antonio like 2 or 4 years ago and it resolved itself after people laid off the panic buying. I’m in NC as well. 11 hours ago, RAMROD said: I heard people were panicking and taking jerry can to gas stations? Is that true or just gossip?? Yeah and people putting them in closed cars. I also saw someone buying gas cans from a hardware store. 10 hours ago, holy scheisse said: Ohhhh I saw a guy post about how "if you don't wanna work today, tell them you're out of gas.

I’m waiting for us to hear that as an excuse for why students can come in. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the previous poster said, there is no emergency here. You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
