Not to mention how much do you fucking shit?? One of those giant 30 some packs would last me for every hurricane that has ever hit us and ever will in the future.

Then again I don't even buy gas or water or whatever people buy before hurricanes. I close my shutters and GTFO. I don't need to live without electricity in FL, during the summer, for weeks, if the sob ends up hitting.

Apparently some of these mfrs here shit enough to warrant a purchase of 2 pallets of TP. Guy probably shits more during the day then he eats.

No out of state ammo purchases to bring back in
No shipment of ammo (online purchases, etc)
As of the implementation of the california "real ID", ammo, gun purchases must be made using a "real ID". If using a standard driver's license, it must have another official form of ID. like a passport
No purchase of a firearm that california considers an "Assault weapon"
To expand on the above, we can't have AK47s. You can buy an exact copy of one, it just can't be called an "AK47"
No bullet buttons on rifles (quick release mag)
10 day waiting period between buying and picking up your gun
No open carry
Nearly impossible CCW

There's more, this is all i remember off the top of my head. But if you were an actual criminal, how effective would any of the above be in stopping you

<Yawn> And I can't drive over 55.

You don't feel safe with what you got?

In a pending disaster I would think the more nutritious options would go first. Go figure.

Exact opposite here with regard to produce. Chicken is literally empty shelves. It seems beef is not nearly as in-demand. Chips aisles are still completely stocked.

I shit on average 4 times a day if you must know. Its about a roll a days worth depending on the brand.

You're using waaaaaay too much TP. One square to wipe north-to-south, one for south-to-north, and one to polish. Done.

I can't believe the amount of TP some people use. My ex-gf's sons apparently wound the TP around their hands 'til it was the size of a boxing glove. Clogged at least one of my shitters every single time them came over.

People, it's just poop. It's not some super-hot Plutonium isotope. You're going to wash your hands when you're done anyway, right?

Gota fold 3-4 squares into 1 square so you don't tear it while wiping lol. And there's no way you can wipe clean in 3 wipes lol damn is this what everyone does? Wtf

OK, Waaaaay TMI for a thread devoted to social ISOLATION.

And ask any Marine, and they can show you how to do it with just one square.

Plus....increase fiber intake (The right kind) and you can decrease the amount of paperwork you need afterwards.

Crazy how that works.

Tell me, how does any of that stop anyone who's set on committing a crime with a gun. Reading comprehension is your friend
