Panic Buying

From one of our fantastic NHS nurses.

Covid-19 is not the problem, we can and will beat it.
It is the virus changing many humans in to locusts that's the problem

In a way, I can't blame people, as it is scary. We have stocked up to cover a couple of weeks just in case, but it seems absurd hoarding any more than that. I can't even find flour in the shops at the moment and baked beans are running low. I was lucky that the local ICA store got in a large amount of toilet roll yesterday otherwise we may have ended up buying a lot of newspapers that we have no intention of reading!

The real problem is the tens of thousands of over-educated experts who didn't see this coming. People were warned about overpopulation and the ruthless destruction of nature for decades and went back to sleep.

Why are we still relying on viruses to modify human behavior is probably the question.

I believe the future viruses will only get more dangerous. With the climate change melting the permafrost and releasing million year old viruses on us with no immunity whatsoever. Humanity may have to mutate just to survive. I won't be around, but I'm sure it will be interesting.

You inspired me to open up a can of Bush BBQ Baked Beans and ate a bowl of the stuff along with a burger. Had to unfortunately use bread since it appears my buns grew mold unfortunately (threw them out for the birds to partake; they will). :)

Earlier this week, I noticed some panic buying in the grocery store where I visit daily to pick up the work lunch.
This is first time after winter war/2nd WW a state of emergency has been declared in Finland so I think it was expected.
Yesterday the shelves looked normal and full.

That's the one, 00111111. Got 3 cans for $5 a few months back; don't eat beans that often, but when I get a hunger for them, I will pop a can. lol

They must be good. Over the pond in UK a 4 pack Heinz £2.50, about $3.

These aren't small cans; they are 28oz (794 grams according to my weights converter) cans. 3 cans this size for $5 is a pretty good deal here. :)

How do you clean after Bum Gun? Are you perhaps going to rotate the hand dryer machine 180 and sit on it?
