Noooo! Semi Hauling Toilet Paper Catches Fire in Texas

Oh, crap! Early Wednesday morning near Dallas, a semi hauling a load of toilet paper caught fire on Interstate 20. The AP reports that the freeway’s westbound lanes were shut down for cleanup, and that the T.P.–in high demand during the coronavirus pandemic–“burned extensively.”

The silver lining here is that they appeared to be the huge toilet-paper rolls that restaurants and stores tend to use, and those types of businesses are currently closed to stop the spread of COVID-19.
