“Panic buying ice cream & tinned fruit? Are you planning to self isolate for a month of sundaes?”

The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic caused many people to quarantine in their homes, possibly for “a month of Sundays” (a very long time). A joke was posted on Twitter by The Dad Joke Man on March 22, 2020:
     
“A question to all those panic buying ice cream, tinned fruit and raspberry sauce; are you planning to self isolate for a month of sundaes?”
     
“I’m stocking up on ice cream, canned fruit, raspberry sauce and sprinkles. I’m planning to self isolate for a month of Sundaes” was posted on Facebook by ‎Katherine Pearson later on March 22, 2020.
