What Are You Panic Hoarding?

[Spirit of Light]

Bill Gates's favorite subject.

Paper or poop

 

[ChristineM]

If you try washing Norwegian toilet paper it gets very soggy

unless you get the right type of french tp it has a habit of tearing when in use, not good if you have long nails

Tikka masala sauce. I'd lose my freaking mind if ran out of that taste of heaven.

Also, sunshine. I hoarded so much last week, I got sun-poisoning.

I have a restaurant right around the corner from me that now gets my perfect score: they are open for delivery, the price is right -- and the chef makes the best tikka masala I've ever had. Oh, yum!

For anybody living in Toronto, it's called Tamasha. Yonge/Davisville. Try it.

 

[ChristineM]

oh the brass.

And no cast iron in sight.

But it still counts as hoarding

Paper or poop

Booth, sorry, both.

My image of you....

 

[Spirit of Light]

Its better with a roll of toilet paper in the hand than a hand full of poop

 

[Revoltingest]

oh the brass.

The only brass jacketed portable I've ever seen.

Btw, do you know why the firebox end is called the "petticoat"?

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Oh, yeah....have you tried to buy an antique babbitt ingot there lately?

Btw, on an unrelated note, there's a remote possibility that I
might pick up a gorgeous French portable steam engine.
Very unlikely, but possible.

Do you find steam engines practical for driving your "personal pleasure" devices?

 

[Revoltingest]

Do you find steam engines practical for driving your "personal pleasure" devices?

Internal combustions have been more practical so far.
But I plan to run some steam engines on compressed air.
That will be very practical.

 

[ChristineM]

My image of you....

That made me heave, a sight that cannot be unseen, i won't thank you for it

 

[John53]

I only use one, I don't want poop on my hand

But it would help with the next to impossible task of not touching my face.

Paper or poop

A $350 toilet powered by worms may be the ingenious future of sanitation that Bill Gates has been dreaming about

Lots of polishing to keep it looking good, these french ladies are high maintenance.

I long to remain ignorant of the why the firebox whatsit is not called a firebox

The firebox is still called a firebox.
But that end of the engine's boiler is the business end, hence the "petticoat".

The golden rules for avoiding coronavirus. Wash your hands, stay at least 1.5m away from others and don't touch your face. The first two are easy, not touching my face has proved impossible and the more I try not to the harder it is.

It is. If you are sitting, put your hands together. Try keeping something in one hand as much as possible - pen, keys.....

 

[Secret Chief]

Beers and coffee, but then I always am. Oh, and thick cut marmalade of course.
