Coronavirus complaint/commiseration thread.

Up until now, we have been fine with our TP reserve. We buy a lot of stuff in bulk and store in our pantry, etc.

I have been to the grocery store every 7-10 days the last month. Only once has there been any TP and we were limited to buying 4 rolls.

Doing the math, we are gonna be out before long and even if the store has some, my family of 4 can’t make it 7-10 days on 4 rolls.

Don’t really want to spend $500 on a bidet that warms the water...wife not too excited about handheld sprayer and doesn’t really want to have the serious discussion about what we should do.

Probably just gonna buy the sprayer Incase we got worse case scenario...

Is there not a big box store accessible? Target, Costco, Walmart?

My GF ordered TP online. I think from Amazon.

Closest box store is like 35 minutes away in Glenwood Springs...don’t ever go down there...but will probably drive there tomorrow as I need to drop off my chain saw to get repaired.

Amazon seems to only have “coreless” and even then, looks like deliveries are out in to June?

I ordered a handheld version as they are $50-$80. Have it just Incase if I can’t find anything in the city tomorrow.

It snowed a foot at my house today and I can’t ski.
I have a selection of garden implements you could cave my skull in with.
I recommend the pick axe, but you can go for the sledge or the 6 foot pry bar if you want. Maybe the 6 foot jack handle.

KQ... I humbly suggest that you try some better tortillas. The ones that come raw for you to cook (or just make some dough). 4 ingredients.

You'll be hooked. And you'll taste all the preservatives in the weird fluffy mainstream shit ass tortillas.

So your plan is to spray the shit off your ass and then air dry?

My GF said she ordered cordless but got regular. She was both surprised and happy.

I've never ventured into tortillas making but might have to start

Complaints are very few
No time to turn away from you
Seen the things you do whence
Another time to be true

Wash as your tear
Did to me all these years

Rodriguez tortillas out of Caldwell, ID. Ready to eat or the kind you cook. Only tortillas we use unless making them.

It's so easy. Buy a press and some maseca and you'll never go back. Dirt cheap.

But my friend posted it won't work.

[emoji8]

Mrs Jupiter made some tortillas this
week. Our first time. Thanks, virus

I asked my neighbor how he's doing, and he frowned and said, 'can't complain'.

Fuck I guess he's right, isn't he? Us too for the most part. Well, I'm gonna complain a little anyways.

Experiencing hardship with the Great Toilet Paper Famine of 2020? Please refer to the handy dandy thread I started to address just that: https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...let-Paper-Woes
God speed, my friend.

Maybe try getting on to one the TP subscription services? Who gives a Crap, Peach Goods, Reel Paper. I think there is a few out there - heard a story on NPR about these.

Why can’t chicks use Kleenex?

That I have seen for sale in the stores.
If you’re on septic, then get a plastic bag by the loo for non flush disposal.

Hell I’d use paper towel after a dookie if that’s all I had. In fact I’m sure I’ve done that once or twice in a poorly stocked restroom

I use TP to blow my nose or wipe the seat but other wise I never use TP since I instaled a 46$ bidet

I have even gone so far as to use the cardboard tube as wipe.

Been making corn tortillas for a while now. Luckily got a case of Bobs Masa right before the poop hit the fan, so I’ve been covered.

Everybody else likes flour and they’ve been hard to find. Made my first batch yesterday and they turned out okay. Much more fiddly than corn but the denizens were happy. Lard makes everything taste good.

Kids have gotten picky about veggie straw colors and have taken to trading and bartering. I argued that they were full of shit about flavor differences. A blind taste test later and the old man was eating some crow...and a handful of yellow veggie straws cause they’re the best.

So you just have wet panties after pooping then? You gotta dry off.

Bag, thanks for the veggie straw lesson. I had no idea.

STHU you're going to entice Fred to come back to talk more shit.

A decent tortilla makes a good toilet paper alternative, one would guess
