Preparing for quarantine

[heihachi]

Besides the usual preppier stuff—water, food, firearms, other survival gear—what other items should I be getting to prepare for quarantine?

I was thinking some sudoku books, jigsaw puzzles, card games, and things will be good to have in case power goes out and I need to keep my mind engaged while hunkered down.

Are you seriously worried about this? I'm hearing toilet paper is essential. At least, some people seem to think so.

EDIT: Turns out that yes, this is serious. Stay safe, people!

oh, and worth adding, if you're a smoker then you're going to need a month supply minimum I would say, no one's going to bring those round to your house.

Half joking but I think people with prescription meds should probably stock up in case supply chains are disrupted. I’m also concerned that my ISP won’t be able to handle the traffic if everyone’s cooped up and relying on the internet for work and entertainment all day every day. I’m not concerned about toilet paper—I’ll use my aes inserts and manuals if I have to.

Preparation H

Just go into the shower and wash your ass out if you have a retractable shower head. Saves on toilet paper.

The only thing I wanted during my 14 day quarantine was sleeping pills. Because waking up each day with nothing to do was hell. Is hell.

Best time ever to create a drone delivery service, fully fleshed out like.

After 4 days of 3 times a day you feel like a fucking overmilked cow. 2 weeks and you might open an interdimensional portal from all that friction.

You guys should just keep doing what you have been doing your whole lives. Avoid socialising, physical contact and the outdoors.

Toilet paper all sold out here, resulting in Humpty Dumpty fights from people who realistically can’t even reach their assholes.

You're getting your monies worth out of this one.

I guess I would too.

Grab a cheap Wii console with WiiFit.

Or one of those things Chuck Norris flogs on early morning tv.

Toilet paper and most canned food was sold out at my fave grocery store when I went shopping last Thursday, one of the workers said to me that their supplier can't send enough of that stuff to meet the current demand.

Lotsa people will feel slightly silly in a couple of weeks. Or maybe not and we all will dieeeeeeee, yay.

Baby wipes and Himalayan sherpas.

So i’ll Be working from home for like 2 weeks, which sucks.

I love going into the office. My whole job is about schmoozing and chit chatting.

How the fuck am I supposed to tele-schmooze from home?

I misread Himalayan herpes, and sherpas obviously makes more sense, but if there was such a thing as Himalayan herpes, I bet that shit would fuck you up

 

[Burning Fight!!]

I'm gonna buy crates of Doritos and Dew, the thinking man's choice.

I really hope this doesn't kill humanity and gets to be the push needed for remote, at home working to be widely accepted and employed.

Variants are fine as long as it's in a different sub forum.

You guys do realize this virus is not going to be a big deal to most people? It's mainly just affecting elderly people and those with weakened/compromised immune systems. If you take care of yourself, eat right(including getting elderberry & vitamin b12) you should be just fine. That and the most important thing... don't touch your face and wash your hands regularly. That's basically it.

Don't touch your face is a sizeable statement to push through as though it means nothing.
