Maintaining a sense of humor during stressful times

Not sure why people are going after toilet paper so much, do they think they are going to poo themselves to death? Here the beer isle has taken the biggest hit, plenty of tp available.

Your link wants me to create an account?

Sorry, I thought that it would play without an account. Let me try to find it elsewhere.

It's shows how what we're going through now (social distancing, working from home, TP shortage, etc) was on MASH

You can always tell when teenagers are getting bored....because they start vandalizing mailboxes. I happens at some point almost every year, but this year it's happened earlier than usual, I suspect because of the lockdown and schools being closed.

Anyway, they got mine a few days ago, so I had to get busy with my dolly blocks and body hammer to resurrect it. One of my neighbors had a more novel approach, though I don't believe that it's USPS approved.

I've heard of people trying to put up vandal-proof mailboxes, here are a few examples I found online:

Toilet paper vending machines found online, these all seem foreign, but could they start being used (or used more) in the U.S. ?

I really don't understand the obsession with toilet paper, do people think they are going to poo themselves to death? Plenty in the stores down here but the beer isle is a bit empty...

I really don't understand the obsession with toilet paper.....

I think if most of the public would have held to buying their normal amount they used to buy there would likely not be any shortages, but most people dread the thought of running out of it so more and more people started buying more, which likely caused others to buy more when they saw how fast it was selling, sort of had a snowball effect

My roommate kept complaining that my comparing the quarantine to prison was an over reaction, so I shanked him.

Lock down
Just be careful because people are going crazy from being in lock down!
Actually I've just been talking about this with the microwave and toaster while drinking coffee and we all agreed that things are getting bad.
I didn't mention anything to the washing machine as she puts a different spin on everything.
Certainly not to the fridge as he is acting cold and distant.
In the end the iron straightened me out as she said everything will be fine, no situation is too pressing.
The vacuum was very unsympathetic... told me to just suck it up, but the fan was more optimistic and hoped it would all soon blow over!
The toilet looked a bit flushed when I asked its opinion and didn’t say anything but the door knob told me to get a grip.
The front door said I was unhinged and so the curtains told me to ........yes, you guessed it .....pull myself together.
