I just went to the Dominion to get coke, and the guy in front of me in line bought $74 worth of chicken thighs. It was insane - I think he bought every package of chicken thighs that they had. I needed to know what he was thinking, so I followed him into the parking lot and when I managed to catch his eye..."whats up with all the chicken?"

He looked at me like I had just asked him a question that everyone knows the answer to! "Christmas. Its on for half price. I'm going to freeze it."

My only remaining questions is WHERE? Where do you put all of that chicken? It literally filled a shopping cart. Unless you have a human-body sized chest freezer in your basement - but then what do you do with the body in there until the festivities are over and you have managed to eat your way through all that chicken? Its not like you can hide it in a snow pile in your backyard - thanks to this crazy, apocalyptic-heralding weather, the ground isn't even frozen yet.
