All it takes is a an inch of snow to turn the doofs into ersatz preppers.

We moved away from the crazy “west side” this past summer. We are currently under a blizzard warning here in Quincy, in central Washington. The shelves in our stores are full. Just sayin....

I've lived in the snowy Northeast most of my life. I have NEVER had a situation where I ran out of food during a snowstorm. And I've lived through some pretty severe winter storms.

I'm not a prepper either. I just have the normal amount of food in my refrigerator and cupboards. The vast majority of the storms, the roads are plowed the next day and I'm able to get to the supermarket if I need to.

Only one storm kept me snowbound for several days and that was the Blizzard of 1978. Our side street did not get plowed for nearly a week. But nobody starved. Nobody ran out of food.

Also, it is actually possible to live without milk and bread for a few days. I know the supermarket mobs find that hard to believe.

“All it takes is a an inch of snow to turn the doofs into ersatz preppers.”

And then they’ll watch the show and LAUGH at the people who stock up to be ready for a ‘bad day’.

We had flurries predicted here in Tulsa a couple years ago and they actually cancelled classes for a couple of schools.
