So I figured it was best to hit the stores when they were empty (in the mornings), no purchase limits, no shortages, and very few, if any virus shedders. And 90% of what I bought, I would use later regardless.

...and many others here did the same, and were ridiculed. Ridiculed by those now standing in those lines, some of them, no doubt, picking up the virus right there in line.

Really. It's not like anything I bought is going to go to waste.

I don't see why it matters to the flubros what we did that; A) is nobody's business except ours, and B) isn't hurting anyone anyways.

Why they feel compelled to offer us their unasked for opinion if beyond me.

“Why they feel compelled to offer us their unasked for opinion if beyond me.”

I’ve compared the Flubros to people who claim we didn’t walk on the moon. They know they’re DEAD WRONG, but they have some personal need for attention.

It’s about the only thing that makes sense at this point.

Nobody cares how much toilet paper you buy.

However, the needless fear mongering has crashed the economy over a once a decade event. Are we going to shut down the largest economy in the world every time a new bug emerges?

Both of you seem blissfully unaware of the economic carnage we are facing now. You might want to think about that instead of looking for validation for prepping.

It’s okay to offer unsolicited advice, but the abuse we received for not following their complacent examples was inexcusable.

Meta Concern Trolls, concerned that we were concerned about our families and communities. Causing the very panic they were worried about.
