This one had me rolling!



Also, I bought some just to celebrate my inability to be with friends...

In my town, there's a run on cash. First T.P. and now cash. Go figure.

Rough days on the arse. We're all familiar with the vast empty toilet paper aisles and no joke, I checked seven stores in a fairly populated suburbia - 2 Wal-Mart's, Meijer, Jewel-Osco, Menards, Home Depotmypoop (used their can), one Aldi --- nada.

But found another Aldi with a short stack on pallet. Jack Pot! I buy my limit of two 8 roll packs I'm and whistling schitz and giggles.

That lasted until I got home. Wife is mad because its not the soft type. Haha

There is TP here, but they have it stocked behind the customer service counter to keep people from being morons when it comes to TP hoarding.

You sir, have excellent taste in Scotch. For now, I'm getting by with a left over Haig and Haig Pinch Blended, from Christmas past.

That’s not being enforced, I don’t think. 😉 This is from Huntington Beach, and in the distance is Santa Catalina Island. Didn’t that used to be unsainted, just plain old Catalina Island? 🤔

From Laguna Beach on is really crowded, for traffic, on the road, but the sidewalks & bike trails are even worse. Apparently, someone called Home Free, so now all the beaches are safe. 🤔🙄😉

It's been Santa Catalina since at least 1958.

My two young boys are still in diapers. About half the time, I use modern cloth diapers. These require a sprayer nozzle on the toilet to clean before going into the washing machine.

It takes a little practice but it can easily be used on your own bum. Practice because if you aim at the hole and press the trigger all the way... ! It cost like $20 a couple years ago.

Anyway, my butt is cleaner than yours.

Somewhere in the vicinity of Seal Beach, I meandered off course. There were no Girl Scouts to be easily found, but I did score some peanut butter cookies, and a really big sammich. 😎 I should be alright for a day or so. 😁😉

People are full of ****. I like most people have an average a 2 or 3 week supply of TP in our home. Whenever it is on sale I buy a pack of 12, 18 or 24 rolls. We certainly don't use a roll a day, so I probably have a months supply of TP. I don't understand why people are buying a 2 to 3 month supply. It is typical stupid, herd mentality behaviour.

Likewise those, perfectly healthy, walking about with simple facemask on expecting that to protect them.
