The worst part about this is that it is now a two-week break from school and everything terrible, and I am ill. This always happens. I assign [I]that[I] to Mordor.

Oh my!... My case is nothing compared to yours. I don't take any medications. I just have a runny nose and itchy throat and eyes for about a month. Not as bad as what you're having, though. And I'm still anticipating an increase in it, since things are just starting to bloom...

Quite an orcish thing indeed.

I assign disagreements that by all reason should be trivial matters, yet still manage to cause bitterness and acrimony beyond any predictable level.

Julian Fellowes. I've watched him manage to turn the story of Titanic into Crossroads tonight. He needs to spend a long time editing all his scripts and Mordor is now a quiet place to do so.

Panic buying.

Seconded. I am now having to decide if I use what petrol I have left looking for an open petrol station or conserve it and hope it calms down. But there are only 2 petrol stations in a town of over 25k people.
