I need some help. Starting Thursday, I won't be leaving my house.

[flvegan]

For anything short of an emergency. Probably until Monday or Tuesday (Super Bowl is happening around a mile away, you get the picture). What do I need to remember to stock up on for my self-imposed 6 day isolation?

[mcctatas]

1. Porn and beeer?

[flvegan]

3. How does one stock up on porn?

That's why the internets were invented.

[CatholicEdHead]

5. Hard Drives

;)

[LeftyMom]

6. "Hey LM, where'd you put that camera?"

[DS1]

7. don't download anything for 48 hours

it'll build up speed for the big day so it'll be flvegan jblastorama time once the download commence

[mcctatas]

10. I wouldn't even know where to find porn...

ask the Doctor

[XemaSab]

2. Beer

:beer:

[LeftyMom]

4. TP.

[mainegreen]

39. I second that.

You do not want to run out of TP.

[TZ]

8. moisturizer

for your hand(s).....O8)

[BeachBaby]

9. Dog food, cat food, beer and Svedka.

[LeftyMom]

11. Movies where stuff blows up.

I have no idea why other people are making a sex thread out of this. You're thirty seven. Presumably you know what you need to rub one off by now.

[Haole Girl]

12. Water

Since your stockpile must be expired. :hi:

[arcadian]

13. Everybody thought D.C. was gonna be gridlock for the inauguration.

It turned out to be nothing. What are they saying about the Superbowl? I guess all those people will be in town for over several days. Just do anything you have to do in the opposite direction. :-)

[flvegan]

20. Heh...you don't understand Tampa.

We can't have a monster truck show here without chaos.

[Chan790]

14. I find in these situations...

it's the things that I can't live without and couldn't foresee which I end up needing.

Cooking oil
Margarine
Batteries
Light bulbs
Replacement water filter (Because you haven't been tortured until you've been forced to drink Yonkers muni. water.)
Dog food
People food
Propane/Heating Oil (because getting a delivery under those conditions is a pain in the ass)
and you're going to think I'm crazy for this...gas the car up. Because if there is something you do end up needing immediately, it's that much worse if you realize you've got to stop for gas.

[MrCoffee]

15. Slim Jims. Beef Jerky. Canned corned beef hash. Slim Jims.

A little extra beef jerky wouldn't hurt.

[madinmaryland]

16. Is this your annual beef binge to purge yourself of veganism??

:shrug:

[rcrush]

17. Weed and screens.

And doritos.

[Gormy Cuss]

18. Don't pull a billyskank.

Stock up on bread.

[flvegan]

21. See, this is good advice.

Bread. Noted.

[TZ]

23. um

you really expected to get "good advice" from this crowd?
:rofl:

:hide:

[KG]

19. a block of cheese the size of a car battery.

vegan cheese of course.

[crimsonblue]

22. beer and cigarettes... maybe some lad mags.

[motely36]

24. Milk, Bread, and Eggs

At least that is what everyone around here gets if there is a threat of bad weather

:shrug:

[TZ]

25. milk bread eggs and toilet paper!

I'm sure there was a run on the grocery stores here last night!..:rofl:

[azmouse]

26. Been there, done that, didn't bother to get the teeshirt.

I lived about 5 mi away from last years Super Bowl.
It really wasn't too bad around here then but I understand about not wanting to fight the crowds.
We made sure we had lots of food in the house and relaxed with books and movies.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

27. We were fortunate for

previous Tampa Super Bowls. Lived in Temple Terrace, conveniently away from the chaos.

[cynatnite]

28. Plan a menu for the remainder of the week...

Include every possible thing you will use for each meal. It will help with your self-imposed isolation.

[Dr. Strange]

29. Chex mix

Seriously, stock up on the chex mix.

[AwakeAtLast]

34. This is the best answer

:9

:hi:

[Fleshdancer]

30. If you take any over the counter meds, make sure you're stocked up

I would be a mess without my allergy meds for that long. Take a look at your toiletries too. Do you have enough toothpaste, soap, shampoo, etc?

[TK421]

31. You should probably pick this up in case any of the rowdies try to break in..

[BreweryYardRat]

32. Yeesh, you're that close to RayJay?

Plenty of food. A reasonable amount of booze. Books. LOTS of toilet paper. (Like, go buy a brand-new 12-pack of 2-ply soft rolls in the largest size you can find.) A filtered water pitcher or two, maybe with a 24-pack of bottles thrown in for good measure.

Make sure your land phone line's in working order (if not, get one), because cell-phone service is probably gonna be SLOOOOOW from all the signals going through. If LeftyMom has a webcam, get one for yourself. If you've got a wireless router, make sure it's secure, so people can't leech off of it.

If you realize on Friday morning that you forgot something and it's cheap (i.e. under $20), I gotta be down in that general area on Friday afternoon. PM me before 12 with your address and I'll swing it by.

[flvegan]

38. As the crow flies, yeah.

I've got my list, I'll be checking it twice. Thanks for the offer, too!

Going to have to remember your new name as well.

[BreweryYardRat]

40. Simple mnemonic.

Think "crazier than a..."

[Inchworm]

33. All I can think of is beer

seltzer and dogfood.

G'luck!

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. Ohhhh...that happened to us with crazy ( I MEAN CRAZY) Steelers

fans when the SB was held in Detroit.

Earplugs, a shot gun and dried meat(veggies in your case) . You're all set. Don't let them park on your lawn no matter what stupid sob story they give you. :hi:

[LynneSin]

36. Well if you lived up north here it would be Bread & Milk - that's what we buy when snow is coming

I'm not kidding, last time there was a serious snowstorm for Wilmington the only bread left was flavored croutons.

[AwakeAtLast]

37. If it was me I would make sure I had plenty of migraine meds

Sodas or alcohol of choice
Tea bags, all kinds
Coffee if you drink it
One indulgence that you wouldn't normally have around the house (or two)
Guacamole ingredients and blue tortilla chips - OMG is that heaven!

Good luck!
