Ha. Amazon is out of stock on lots of toilet paper.

I've had these on all my toilets for years:

I only use the toilet paper to dry off.

I know its a gross subject but these things are awesome, most of the country is walking around with dirty, stinky asses because all they use is toilet paper

Think about this, if you were out jogging or walking or whatever and for some reason you fell into a pile of fresh dog shit and it was all over your arm, would you

a. get some toilet paper and wipe it off and go about your day

or

b. get to the nearest bathroom and wash your arm with soap and water in the sink?.

They just cancelled the Thunder-Jazz game moments before tip off. Apparently Rudy Gobert has been sick, but he wasnt playing. They must have been afraid one of his teammates had it and they'd give it to the rest of the world.

This is crazy. Wouldn't be surprised if the NBA simply shuts down. Probably mostly because they're afraid of being some ambulance chasing lawyer. Or worse, twitter would kill them for it.

You called it. Suspended the season

The bottled water aisle at my local supermarket yesterday was completely wiped out.

by the toilet paper?

This might turn out like Zombieland.

The coolest celebs like Bill Murray survive.

I just got a text from the ticket saying:

THE TICKET BREAKING NEWS: NBA HAS SUSPENDED SEASON EFFECTIVE AFTER TONIGHTS GAMES. Will use the hiatus period to determine next steps @dfwticket

So what are we supposed to do, shut down everything for the next 16 months until a vaccine is available?

And now it's racist to call it the Wuhan flu

This is beyond stupid.

You know what, fuck those communist motherfuckers. I still say there's a real chance this accidentally escapaed from their bioweapons virus program, which is based in.... you guessed it... Wuhan.

And then they had to lie about it in the early stages, just like the Soviets did with Chernobyl. If they'd been more up front it might have been better contained.

Not to mention it's common practice to call any virus by where it originates, e.g. Spanish flu, Ebola , West Nile, etc.

It's amazing how these people are terrified and/or offended at the thought of offending China, all the while constantly bashing this country.

That China check is big af tho, look how the NBA backed down from criticizing them over the HK riots

Lyme disease was named after Lyme Connecticut.

When’s TTU shutting down?

You joke, but the administration is already talking about how it would work if we made everyone work from home.

Big 12 tournaments will only have 125 attendees for each team. 250 people will be watching the tournament. That's insane.

After his speech last night:

After his speech last night:

There's something seriously wrong with that guy.

 

[NoDak]

People find this upsetting?

 

[Cotton]

They just cancelled classes after spring break here at TTU and only online after that until further notice. This is nuts.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

What's the big deal with the Trump "okay?" It's about 1/1000 of stuff Biden does every day.

And I'm not a Trump rubberstamper, either.

I’m not joking. Essentially every university here has cancelled in-person classes and some are about to send kids home from the dorms.
