There's gotta be at least 1 person taking advantage of this to mask up and steal 50-80 pounds of raw steaks
Or 40 cakes.
That's terrible
Wtf do you do with 40 urinal cakes?
One at a time, buddy
Not happening. I’ve already cleared out all the mask stores
What would ICE need with raw steaks?
But do you have the freezer space to hold them? Might need to steal one of those too.
I'm gonna need to ask some_guy to help me with the freezer
The alert that got sent to my family's phones included instructions to check social media
I know it's not what they were literally saying, but it came off as "911 broke use Facebook idk" and I had a giggle
I've only ever met a few people that knew non-emergency numbers were a thing. Let alone know them by heart. So I bet this going swimmingly.
Amazing how quickly society forgot the note card pinned by the telephone with "FIRE - MEDICAL - POLICE" written on it.
I have a magnet on my fridge that the city used to give out, it has ALL of the local numbers on it. The thing is hella faded and probably a good 30+ years old now. I haven't seen another one in years.
Nice of them to notify all the robbers when to go fuckin nuts
Oh you’re precious if you think the cops care about a middle class persons house being robbed.
And how would you propose they alert the public, but exclude future criminals? Or should they just let people in peril call a useless number?
SELECT * FROM Population WHERE NotAssholes
Seems pretty simple to me
