'It was a wedding ring, destined to be found in a cheap hotel, lost in a kitchen sink, or thrown in a wishing well' - Marillion, Clutching at Straws, 1987
Well it seems strange now to think that the great toilet roll stampedes were going on exactly a year ago and had then petered out by early April, once people had finally come to their senses, and realised that they had fallen for all the needless hype surrounding it.
All seems like absolutely ages ago now.
There doesn't seem to be any real shortages of anything or panic-buying right now, one year on, well nothing of any major significance, at least.
Give it time and social media...
Yes, you're right, they'll always be some kind of social media-fuelled craze/mania/panic!!
At the moment, social media is going into meltdown over the tragic murder of Sarah Everard, and there are allegedly crazy campaigns to impose curfews on all men walking the streets after 6pm, which I think is totally unfair as the vast majority of us men aren't murderers, rapists or paedos.
All very reminiscent of the mass hysteria over delinquent teenagers back in the mid-late 2000s, especially those wearing hoodies and the banning of them from the Bluewater Centre in Kent, plus the installation of those 'Mosquito' high-pitched sound-emitting devices outside shops, etc, which hardly ever seems to get mentioned nowadays.
