Hey S.F., Bay Area People - Stop Hoarding Giant Bags of Rice!

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

People, people, people. You read something on the Drudge Report about an area rice shortage and then you make it come true by buying 200 pounds at a time.

Until the government issues you ration cards, you can’t call it “rationing,” so don’t go there, girlfriends. If you want to talk about salmon, well then go ahead, as you might very well have a case about recent losses in salmon.

But, there is no rice shortage. Don’t stock up. Don’t buy stuff for your neighbors

This will sort itself out, and then we’ll all look back and laugh.

A local Costco back during a happier time when there was so much rice stacked up that even the pigeons could get their fair share. Yes that is John Grisham looking down on us from above - his visage adorns the gaylord of books on the left. Larger photo in all its glory here on SFist.com.
