Supermarkets are selling out of toilet paper, masks and other supplies as countries around the world worry about the dramatic emergence of Covid-19, a new coronavirus.
In the States, Costco is no exception. However, for Danielle Baskin, a tarot reader in San Francisco took a trip to her local Costco and reminded us that some geeks can find humour in all sorts of situations!
Well, that makes sense. You can see why health potions would be popular right now and why management would have to restrict sales. If Costco runs out of health potions, then there would be less reason to visit Costco and buy other goodies, like magic axes, while you are there.
Oh, damn. The supermarket is out of enchanted battleaxes too. I wonder why they sold out first? People panic buying magical items that have a weapon and utility use?
So much for lateral thinking! If you were hoping to use boots of levitation to escape from that coughing person approaching you on the street, then your otherwise sound plan has been foiled!
