Sheeple queueing for toilet rolls. Same at Costco for the last fortnight
Replied: 14th Oct 2020 at 10:48
I can't work it out, In the queue was a mate of mine, Now this lad is single and is probably only after a quarter of boiled ham and a tin of peas, he's a good 50 yards from the front of the queue, there is no queue at Asda, I wonder why he's queueing ?
My theory is Sainsbury are trying out a television hypnosis experiment, Everyone in that queue must be a telly watcher and they've been subject to
subliminal advertising,

Oh as that started,, I have been waiting for the kewing to start
I had a bit of a doo there a couple of weeks ago, and I don't mean a party, I had been sending off for a few bits and pieces from Heebay, and collecting them from the Argos counter in Sainsburys, and as Boris announced the first of the new restrictions at the end of September, Sainsburys introduced the one way system back into the store, in that you go in at the doors on the left, and they have barricaded the store so that you have to out at the doors on the right nearest the tills, which is fare enuff, but this was the first day, and the Argos counter is opposite the doors where yoo enter the store, and on this day I hadn't noticed the one system was back in force, so I picked me parcel up, and was nearly back at the entrance doors, by the time I realised that the one system was in operation, and I would have gone out of the right side doors, but the barricades meant that it would have been an half mile walk around the store to get to those doors, so I said "sod that" I have only picked me Ebay parcel up, so as I got to the doors, a prick in a collar and tie jumped forward from the windows at the back and blocked my way at the security detectors, or whatever they are called, and some other idiot set the alarm off on them, so he is stood in front of me, and these alarms going off, and he said menacingly "YOU HAVE TO GO ROUND" so I said "I have only picked my ebay parcel up" to which he replied "I don't care" so I said in a raised voice and pointing "DOORS ARE THEER" the doors were about 15ft away and this prick wanted me to go back in the store, and walk all the way round, and he shouted at me "I CAN'T LET YOU THROUGH" so I said "I'm going through em anyway" and side stepped away from him, and I thought is he going to grab hold of me, but he didn't, which was probably for the best
I was a bit worried though, because I had some PPE on order, to be picked up from that Argos point a couple of days later, and I was concerned that if I was barred from Sainsburys how would I get me PPE but a couple of days later I picked my PPE up without any problem, and that idiot was on 'trolleys and baskets' he was in the car park pushing lines of trolleys around
It occurred to me though, that on that day, I wonder how many other customers he upset ?

I haven't, and I have worked the entire time throughout the 'lockdown'.
I have met and mingled with hospital staff and patients,
as well as care home residents, etc.
I read that you have had it, but you didn't die from it. (Praise God)
I know people who have died 'with' it, but none 'of' it.

Just been to Sainsbury's and they are queuing - and for no apparent reason.
It seems that some jobsworth employee or employees has taken it on
themselves to start the lockdown earlier than planned.
What a load of bollocks all this is becoming. Let's all get the damned Covid and get on with our lives...Please.

So, if fact you are avoiding places where you might come into contact with the virus. So what is your bravado all about.
Carry on with life indeed. Healthy, fine dining course
Sounds to me like you are afraid to step over your doorstep.
That is why you think you are as safe as milk. Well milk wasn't too safe some years ago

When my mate's mum died, he was clearing her house out and found an un-opened bottle of Martell, in a cupboard, that was over 30 years old.
Being in the licensed trade for over 22 years, he asked me, "d'you think it'll be alraaaaight this, lad"?
I advised him that it would probably have gone off by now and that I would safely dispose of it for him.
He didn't bite!
