Toilet Paper
Description (Dublin Core)
Although this pile of toilet paper may seem insignificant to most, it actually represents a time of struggle and perseverance. During the pandemic, some household necessities become scarce such as hand soap, hand sanitizer, and most importantly toilet paper. "The great shortage of toilet paper" was a common joke used during the early days of the virus. I think it represents the lack of materials and resources that we had during this pandemic.
This picture depicts a pile of toilet paper that has been stacked. I found it on a website page detailing the history of toilet paper.
#oops, whenever I see toilet paper I imagine myself without it when I need it most and that classic "oh crap" that follows it. #shortage, this is a common word that has been used during the pandemic and has been used to characterize toilet paper at one point.
