what the hell. This thing doesn't really even cause a runny nose. Some of us have allergies and actually need tissues constantly

We only have 6 grocery stores within the span of an hour drive here. Rural areas. Here's the TP aisle from one of them I saw posted on FB earlier today. The paper towel is out too, and most of the tissues.

This is insane to me. I went to the Dollar Tree in town today and it looks like they ordered too much because even the top shelf is nearly to the ceiling in toilet paper. The shelves were all overstocked, paper towels also. No one around here seems to give a damn about hording any of that stuff.

What morons think toilet paper is going to protect them from the coronavirus?

Do they do the same thing during flu season?

What's with Americans (or Aussies) and the dread of toilet paper shortage ? Shouldn't you chaps rather stock on bottled water or canned goods or I don't know, surgical masks, hands gel ?

WHY toilet paper, and more lately tissues ?

The trick is going to the Asian supermarkets for tp because everyone who stocks up on tp are also afraid of getting the virus from Asians

Maybe these TP-hoarding people plan to line their walls with it to keep the Corona virus out? It seems to fit perfectly with their irrationality, after all.

They're hoarding 3+ weeks worth probably, so that they can get through quarantine without leaving.

Toilet paper and tissues are very important for hygiene.

"When we're buying stuff, things close to the body are very comforting, whether that be food, body care or in this case toilet paper," Adam Ferrier, a Melbourne-based psychologist who specializes in consumer behavior, told Reuters.

"The size of toilet paper makes it feel like a substantial, big purchase. It makes it feel like you're doing something. It taps back into that need for control. If you're buying a hefty big pack of toilet paper, you kind of feel like you're 'stocking up'. You signify to yourself that you're in control."

The craze was first observed in Hong Kong, it later spreads to Singapore and Japan. And now we have it in America. At least the Toilet Paper armed robbery stays in Hong Kong :-

I just imagined a post-apocalyptic setting where TP is used as currency.
