Well I guess that's one use for all that extra toilet paper...

    I ran out of tp the day the stores ran out and have yet to find any since, been using the old school hand and shower method, srs

    Just got back looking for some but they were out so figured I would get some produce. None of the produce felt right so didnt buy any.

    Keep that in mind next time you want to hoard something.

    I just can't understand hoarding toilet paper. I have Crohn's, so always have a few excess rolls. If I run out, I will improvise. Improvisation is often the better bet during a flare anyway. More gentle.

    I would be more likely to hoard beer (any) and my favourite gin. A few bottles of wine wouldn't go amiss either.

    She's smiling and enjoying herself not realizing how miserable some people are.

    She plays with excess TP while some people venture out further and further looking for it.

    I mean to be fair, it's not like that toilet paper is necessarily unusable with sharpie marker on it. Just peel off a few layers and 90%+ of the roll should still be good.

    I do agree with the general sentiment of what you're saying though. At least we haven't seen any of these provocative influencer types just yet doing anything ridiculous like burning rolls of toilet paper or ruining it somehow. THAT would be even more upsetting.

    You're damned right. None of this bargain basement stuff either, 3 ply all the way. Think $100 black chips all the way baby!

    True. Wasting TP would be upsetting. Actually what I was trying to say is that some people have too much TP (hoarding out of fear understandably) and some people have nothing and are trying to get some.

    I do think the video is funny, given that it is in the context of Vegas and our shared love of Vegas!

    I'm in line with what I read somewhere yesterday:

    "I used to spin the toilet paper roll like I was on Wheel of Fortune. Now I spin it like I'm cracking a safe."
