We're All Doomed!™ (the Conquest, War, Famine, and Death Thread)

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

One way to combat these tards is to put a cap on what they can spend at a time. Once they exceed the cap if they’re too dumb to keep count while they shop, the cash register shuts off and they pay their bill and leave. You will have less gluttony and greed occurring

Yeah, there are 3 TP manufacturers in the lower mainland, so we won't be running out any time soon.

Which is good, less prep time on the rump roast...

Just left the Save On in North Pocompton. It’s all good other than dried pasta and shit paper. No lineups ... bunch of creeps and gear boxes out there earlier today apparently. There were some surly folks out and about


People are messed. I watched a couple guys arguing over some steaks and damn near throwing haymakers. If I’d had a knife I would have tossed it in between them. Sharp as a beach ball.

Hey Booze, did you stock up on some booze?

Great article about why we need social distancing now. Well laid out and logical.

Social Distancing? It’s already started, it’s called smart phones

I was in the London Drugs on Hastings down by Victory Square last night and it didn''t look like anyone had bought toilet paper that day. The whole section was fully stocked almost as if nobody in that neighborhood even realized there was a panic going on. I didn't really need any but I grabbed a jumbo pack anyway :)

I've been quite impressed with the daily updates Dr Bonnie Henry has been providing. The flow of information coming to us from our health professionals has to be commended. I've got several friends in the Spokane area and the wild shit that is being spouted off there is amazing. The outbreak in the Seattle area, concentrated on a care centre, is pretty devastating but there is little in the way of sound guidance State wide for them. They rely on county by county health authorities and the patchwork response is crazy. In the absence of fact, rumour, misinformation and conjecture are ruling.

Washington is closing all schools beginning Tuesday. Spokane just cancelled all organized sports through to late April

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

I’m gonna make like Dicky Proenneke and go live alone in the wilderness. Eat huckleberries, pan for gold, trap fur, have a journal. Just like Topper. Off the grid, tin hats
