What you're not seeing is that it's also a dick-measuring contest. He who dies in a megastorm with the most hoarded toilet paper wins.

The toilet paper thing is fascinating to me, because everybody went to the store, saw the empty shelves, and assumed that their neighbors were freaking out and hoarding toilet paper. People actually needed more TP during lockdown, because they were doing all their pooping at home instead of at work.

Businesses have a completely different supply chain for toilet paper, and you had a deficit in one and a surplus in the other. You can't just move product from one supply chain to the other, either.

How much shitting are you doing? Just learn to wipe correctly.

I feel like that dude on the left used all of his and at some point had to make a second trip. If he was American instead of British, I would say maybe even a third. He has that look.

The dude on the right is definitely doing it because his wife forced him to.

Text in the back says "Tyre Centre" which makes it distinctly not American... Maybe you should stop judging people, it's not healthy

That's why I said "instead of British."

Sorry for hurting your feelings.

Good job editing your post after the fact, you know there's an icon that shows that right?

No need to double-down on being an asshole either.

Thanks, I did know that. I edited it for clarity and to add an apology for you since you seem upset.
