The toilet paper monster ate all the supply at one Walmart and also a Publix.

I guess people assume that there will be a huge need of that during this event.

I predict an increase in:

movie rentals
streaming subscriptions
e-book purchases on Amazon and Google and Goodreads
visits to the public libraries, as long as they remain open

How about planting corn in your front yard?

time to buy more stock in netflix & various streaming svces,,, just thought of this - if all the kidz are staying home 'cause schools are closed, that's home schooling,,, bet teacher's unions are tearing their hair out over that

I just hope I survive my wife being stuck in house with nothing to do for weeks. She is a go, go, go baby and I am a home body. Might get a little tense.

And a slowdown in internet speed as increased demand for bandwidth clogs up the system.
