Some shops are beginning to ration certain foods.....good.
The selfishness of some people who panic buy and empty shelves makes me sick.

I agree - it is the entitled generation, me, me, me.

Pathetic.

 Well if you don't follow the herd, you  usually get cast aside.

I understand why most people choose comformity rather than follow their principles.

If feeding my friends is selfish then yes I am, I have very elderly friends and neighbours who cannot do their own shopping  I already have what I need but they don't so I choose to go into the madness to get things for them.    So while you lot sit there with your noses in the air looking down at others, try to think outside your little boxes that not everyone is selfishly taking but trying to get food for others who are not lucky enough to have a family to help them

Shopping to feed friends and help out vulnerable members of society is very nice....but don't try to make out that the shelves are stripped of essential foods and household items because that's what folk are doing.
Maybe you are who knows, but many people are hoarding for their own personal greed...selfish people make a bad situation worse for the people who are more considerate to others.

Self entitlement comes in many ages....I was leaving a table in a busy café bar yesterday, a lady stood behind me waiting to take the table as soon as I had vacated it, an elderly couple walked in, looked round, and the wife dashed over almost barging into me to grab the table away from the lady who had patiently waited....happily she just wasn't quick enough.
That sort of 'entitled' behaviour is very selfish....no doubt her cupboards are full to bursting.

 There's lots of nice soft moss growing on all the walls round here, if push comes to shove...

You can always compost it too, very eco friendly as well. nod
