Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

My daughter woke up with a fever so I guess we are in quarantine mode now.

Good luck buddy. Keep us posted.

Oh and bwar, this is the line at my closest Costco this morning, at 9:30 AM, before they opened at 10.  The door is way up there in front.  This is the back of the line. I wasn't there and didn't take the picture, thankk goodness.  You mentioned that y'all had your Costco panic buy weeks ago, and actually so did we.  But this is more.

I've heard of similar lines at opening from my wife, who has seen the pictures on the local FB community group. 

I went about lunchtime yesterday, and it was busy but not in a state of panic. 

I know I've made the argument *many* times that humans like to believe we're rational beings, and that we're not anywhere close, and I'll add this to my [ever-growing] evidence list in favor of my position.

The worst thing about this is that it is self-fueling. My wife is worried about the ability to get TP. Not because she doesn't think we have enough, but because she's worried enough other people are worried that we won't be able to get it when we need it. She's not "stand outside in line at Costco before they open" worried, but she did buy extra TP at Target last week even though we already had about a 4-5 week supply. 

I think there are a more than a few people who are in the line in your picture thinking "wow, amazing how crazy all these OTHER people in this line are--but I'm just being prudent!"

My revelation of the other day: the internet--specifically social media--is really good at spreading misinformation and mass hysteria, and pretty weak at spreading useful, fact-based information.

Which makes me appreciate this crowd all the more. Sure, we disagree--that's kind of the point--but most of the time we do it without hysteria (misinformation, like claiming Austin is a habitable city, happens, but what are you going to do).

Kudos. If only our little slice of the internet could spread to other outlets.

I will guess that if the toilet paper plants work overtime for a week or so, they can easily catch up with demand

butt, then they won't sell hardly any TP after the scare for months

Heh.

Way ahead of you on social media. I think it's ruining our social interactions, not enhancing them.

Also regarding this place... My tagline at Hammer & Rails [advertising cfb51] calls it "The most reasonable college football forum on the internet." I stand by that.

We are not just college football. We are everything.
