Every now and then it sneaks up on me and I realize with some surprise that I really am an expert on one thing or another, though it's usually something obscure with little practical value.

Yes, the more you know, the more you realize you don't know.  Science is not infinitely certain.  Men of science aren't either...   but fools too often are.

Siwastaja:
Learning is like an S curve. First you learn slowly, because you don't yet know how to learn; but you also don't know what's ahead. When you are getting closer to the highest rate of change, absorbing a lot of new information efficiently, you are shocked to see how much you don't know, because you see the increasing rate and have no idea when it will slow down.

Once your learning starts slowing back down because you already know so much and have absorbed all the critical stuff properly, it gets much easier, and you start feeling confident. Until you find something new to learn, starting the process again.

If you eat enough eggs you will become egg bound and wont need any toilet paper.

Ahhh yes, a form of self-constipating to go along with self-quarantining, self-isolating and gastro-intestinal distancing.

I would guess the manufacturing/distribution of toilet rolls is not geared for rapid changes in demand...
