Except the idiots are still going to have to go out for food by the time they get through their first pack. Every fuckwit I've seen stockpiling toilet paper wasn't buying any long lasting food in any meaningful quantity. They sure were buying out the entire bread aisle though, no need for anything with more than a 2-3 week shelf life for these morons. --- Tah-rah-rah-boom-dee-aaay, did you get yours todaaay?

It is partly mass hysteria. People see others grabbing it up and they feel like maybe they should be doing the same thing. Also, people might only have a few rolls at home and think that if it all gets bought up they wont be able to get anymore.
As for the grabbing of giant amounts of it, that is a coping mechanism. The packages of toilet paper are large. People feel the urge to stock up and prepare, and several giant things of toilet paper is very big. Look how big my preparation is. It temporarily alleviates the anxiety they are feeling. ...

I remember seeing on reddit it started because someone who stocked the toilet paper at a store came to work late. So that aisle was empty. Someone took a pic and it went viral making people think it possible for stores to run out leading to more panic buying which actually did empty stores for real.

from what i heard, a rumor got out that tp is mainly made in china (it's not) and there was going to be a shortage, so some people started panic buying, then other people started panic buying because other people were panic buying, and it just snowballed from there
in other words, there was a rumor there was going to be a shortage, so people in their usual mass hysteria ways went about to make that rumor true --- Tell me your favourite things Tell me your favourite things ... Copied to Clipboard!

Basically, the first wave was doomsday preppers/insane people mass buying in a panic "in case the country gets shut down for an extended period of time" or some shit like that.
