The impending snowpocalypse

Photo

At the grocery store to pick up some bread for sandwiches. Was a bit taken aback by the fact that it was packed at 2:30pm on a weekday.

Turns out everyone is doing the ‘ZOMG snowpocalypse’ routine.

What amused me most were what grown men considered provisions (if I were trapped in by the snow and all dad had stocked up on were hot dogs and frozen dinners that require a microwave and the power went out, I’d be thrilled).

Including the guy that had a small grocery cart filled with nothing but different types of pudding snacks.

I don’t know, maybe I’m not thinking outside the box enough with lunch meat and cheese…
