Middle Aged Man has an Egg-dentity Crisis During Quarantine
The video description is “We as a species, are losing our minds.” This short video opens to four eggs in cups, with the audio “I Want To Break Free” by Queen. When the line “I want to break free” plays, a man pops his head up to sing along, revealing that there were only three eggs in cups, and the fourth egg was actually the man's bald head. I feel this video in my soul, it resonates with me so deeply. It shows the fragility of the human mind and the tendency of our species to use human as a coping mechanism when facing down trauma. -

Food prices skyrocket over coronavirus problems
Starting in March when the pandemic started food prices began to go up. From issues with transportation to outbreaks of Covid-19 among slaughterhouse employees food costs are showing no sign of going down. Everyone will feel the pinch in time whether your a customer or a restaurant owner. According to the article, produce is the latest food item to see price increases. With so many people already stretching every penny, the rise in food costs will just add to the stress of many. Some prices will come down as demand returns to normal, but some items may not go down in price due to issues with supply chain or other factors.

looking for eggs
I tried to shop for eggs and ground beef and had stopped at nearly 4 different grocery stores. Every single one had been completely sold out due to everyone panicking. -

Some people don't care about grocery store rules
A small story about my tales of working at a grocery store during our pandemic. As of the last couple of weeks, my grocery store has had a limit on certain items like meat, water, eggs, toilet paper, etc. I was working in at customer service this day and I was making sure things were in order, wasn't really busy anyway. We had this couple come up to me and ask if I was ready to check them out and I directed them to a register, but before they walked away I realized they had 2 cases of water and 5 things of chicken. I informed them of our limit on those specific items right now, even though we had signed by each of these items explaining the same thing. The husband told me " What if I just come back in and buy the rest, are you going to stop me?". That really caught me off guard because it was such a disregard for basic rules. I told him still, he has to put some of it back, he kept joking around he was gonna put it back or come back in. He played it off like I wasn't paying attention by just putting the water back. He put it on some random shelf right behind him too. He still got into line with all the chicken. I told another cashier to tell them the same thing. So as they checked out they had 2 more cashiers tell them. I was told the guy said him and his wife would split the order so they could get all the chicken. I can't imagine just wanting something so bad you gotta just bend around the rules to get it, especially when those rules are in place to make things fair to other people. In the end, he had to put the 3 extra chickens back because of a manager getting involved. I don't know why people can't respect simple rules.
