Friday Funny: Toilet Paper Edition

What IS with the hoarding of the toilet paper, anyway?    We are here at "Ground Zero" of the Covid19 outbreak (no lie!), and I still cannot figure out the thing with the toilet paper.  It's not that I begrudge people stocking up, and in fact, we did it too because it seems like the whole Seattle area is about to go on lockdown, but it was the sheer AMOUNT of toilet paper that I found confusing.  How much toilet paper are people using?  Is everyone nervous pooping?   Why toilet paper and not.....food?
