You've got it wrong. This is freedom day

Nice bump. Keep going, 100 pages in sight.

Dumb question, why wasn't there a 'pingdemic' before?
The app didn't work?
A lot more people are infected the it seems?
The fweeddom day means a lot more people are using 'common sense' to be dicks
something else, or a combination of the above.

People were not going places that required them to install the app and check in before.

We panic bought ready for Brexit Day 1 and have just kept the stock topped ever since, the only things we lack are weapons for killing zombies, will have to nip down to Aldi's and check the central aisle.

Dumb question, why wasn't there a 'pingdemic' before?

Because when case numbers got to this level before stuff was shutting down, people were staying away from places and we were going into a lockdown. Now, because vaccine, we're just supposed to carry on as normal.

Shops are well stocked round here today.

They won't be soon if everyone gets in a panic due to news stories about shops being short of goods

I panic-bought a bag of pasta today.

 

[existentialist]

I panic-bought some flour a week or two back, without realising I was panic-buying (I actually bought it because it was reduced to clear, and I like 00 flour, anyway)

 

[Badgers]

I am off to panic buy some wine, cider and tobacco

 

[MickiQ]

panic buying is something of a self fulfilling prophecy, If someone says don't panic buy because it will cause shortages, anyone hearing it is likely to assume that people are panic buying already and think they have to get in on the act before there are indeed shortages

My Granddad used to breed rabbits (well keep really breeding is not something that rabbits need any encouragement to do) He read the Sun but it was a bit small to line the bottom of the rabbits cages so he would buy the Times (which he never read) for that.

 

[Saul Goodman]

I'm going to panic buy a lawnmower shortly.

I panicked and ran away from the shops

 

[Badgers]

Just panic brought a 1.5kg Beef joint for £4.14 and need to work out what to do with it

 

[nottsgirl]

I’m not panic buying sewing patterns, which looked to be the latest obsession.

 

[ElizabethofYork]

I've panic bought some raspberry Magnums.

[paulhackett]

Brown paper bags. Ready for my next panic.

 

[weltweit]

I panic bought a Casio digital watch today, £15.00 money well spent, it tells exactly the same time as my damaged Swatch Irony at a fraction of the price.

 

[brogdale]

Tried to panic buy me Bishops from tesco delivery on Tuesday; ordered the max, (16), and the bastards sent 2.
Now I am panicking.

[brogdale]

usually about £1.20 a bottle...which at 5.4% = good value in my book

 

[hash tag]

Bishops tipple, bishops finger.
I went to Eye earlier and couldn't buy anything if I wanted to. What there was was closed. Back to life and reality tomorrow though.

I bought two hats yesterday, they both fitted my big head so I thought I’ll have these. Perhaps the next person who goes into that H&M looking for large hats of that type will see the empty shelf I created send pics to the Daily Mail, sparking a nationwide panic of hat buying.
