People are idiots

We want to set up a 'pantry' for extra food and other supplies in case we need to shelter in place. We'll collect a few extra things every time we go to the store. So I go to my local Big Box hardware store and grab a cheap shelving unit to store stuff on. Since I know I'm going to be doing some homeowner type things (moving and installing insulation, plaster, etc) I decide to check out some cheap disposal disk masks.

They're all out. The clerk said at people were buying them up to protect against the corona virus.

The clerk and I exchange disgusted looks. He said they might have more next week. I told him that was okay and without the proper dust protection I'll just have to procrastinate a while longer. This brought a smile to his face.

People are idiots.

Just more proof that common sense has been bred out of the species.
