COVID 19 Hysteria

[rrich]

Could also be called, "How to PO SWMBO".

SWMBO is an Olympic Gold Medal Shopping champion.
She was complaining that she couldn't find any hand sanitizer as the store shelves were empty. She snickered saying go ahead. Now, I'm a guy and like most guys I don't shop, I just buy. So I went out and bought 4 bottles w/o a problem. SWMBO was rather irritated. "Where did you find these?" was the accusation when I got home. My answer stunned her. It was "STAPLES" the office supply store chain.

Similar here. There's been panic buying of toilet paper, but I had no trouble getting it from one of our sponsors on these forums.

Thats a bit like the dunny in a hotel room we had in Korea. It had an armrest control with more buttons than Capt Kirk's chair on the Enterprise. I was too afraid of the consequences to touch any of them.

We’ve had a small shower hose next to our loo for years as it makes it easier to flush/wash-the Klingons down without a brush. However it’s not all beer and skittles as the reduced use of a pooey brush by the side of the pan is balanced out by water jets of the shower hose atomizing more fecal matter into the air.

Was it made in China? Are you sure it's not a direct delivery system for COVID-19?

We have just explained the toilet roll panic. This thread indicates a morbid curiosity on things toilet is entrenched in the national mindset.

I heard this one yesterday.....
Warning!!!! Handling paper notes is a huge risk of picking up the virus. Put any notes into a zip-loc plastic band and get it out of the house as soon a possible. Leave said notes in plastic bag out side at the front door.....I will be a long shortly to collect them.....

I went to South America once. Hiked over the Andes. 6 gruelling weeks of sheer cliffs, up or down, freezing water, freezing mist, snow, no air... but by the gods I had TP.

On TWO occasions I met STUPID Americans. Half dead, starving, under-prepared, big groups, major targets for the Shining Path (a terrorist group there at the time, shot a lot of tourists, but not Aussies! ).... they begged... BEGGED for toilet paper and soap.

Offered me BIG money for it.

BEGGED.... pleased... whined like children.

Nope. I kept it.

Such luxury! I felt like the King of France with every wipe. Better than money - I had TP!!!!!

Guys, the Corona Virus is nothing to joke about any more,it is having a direct impact on life in my shed.

I got an email from Timbecon this morning - The PCB board they need to do the warranty repair on my Record Power room air filter is stuck in China.

Now things are serious.

I spoke with a mate who is a welder at a local fabricator. Said getting welding rods and wire is getting a bit of a worry.

They must go through a lot.... No rods, no jobs....
