    It’d be pure irony if this isn’t a troll account. Conservatives love to buy in bulk as if they’re preparing for the apocalypse rapture. Costco and Sam’s are infested with them.

      I think you’ll find that preparing for the Rapture is kind of the opposite from shopping at Costco.

      Please note: I normally would not accept BuzzFeed as a reputable source for news, but I think the one thing they actually do well is reporting on social media trends.

        Perhaps. I’m related to a family of magats, and they love shopping in bulk. Many of their friends do too.

        Many of them have this mindset that at some point everything in the world is going to break down and that they’re going to have to bunker down in their houses.

        This is where my thoughts come from. I’ve never actually heard it correlated to the rapture itself though, but I figure that’s probably up there on the list.
