Top 10 Worst Things to Run Out Of

We've all experienced the sheer panic that ensues when we realize we've run out of something crucial, be it right before an important meeting or in the middle of a holiday feast. It's a feeling that can quickly turn a good day into a bad one. And while we may joke about it, running out of essentials is no laughing matter. Whether it's the last slice of pizza, the last drop of coffee, or the last piece of toilet paper, some things are just too important to live without.

From the practical to the frivolous, the items that made the cut are as varied as they are important. We're not talking about leaving a lasting impression here; these are the things that can make or break your day.
The Top Ten
1 Money

Well, like they say, a fool and his money are soon parted. It's why my brother's near broke.

Everyone needs it wither they know it or not.

2 Time

You can use leaves as toilet paper in an emergency. Time has no substitute. To make matters worse it's one of the easiest things to run out of.

I'd say so!
Time is money so it equals out!
Time flies by so quick it's scary & annoying.

I just don't have enough time to run out of time.

3 Breath

For the person above me, I agree with you but just in case, running out of it is bad because you'd be dead.

I hope you're not wondering why this is a bad thing to run out of...

Hopefully it's just temporary like after running or something

4 Toilet Paper

That dreadful moment when you're done with your business and look over at an empty toilet paper rack.

One of the nastiest things that ever happens... by the way I love your list Britgirl.

I hate going to the bathroom and there's no toilet paper.

5 Water

Because it's the only beverage (besides tea) that is suitable for my consumption

6 Ideas

For Justin Beiber's sake, let this never happen!

This would make life even more boring than it is now.

I always run out of list ideas on TheTopTens.

7 Food

If my parents don't buy any food when they save up some money then i'll starve all day.

How is water and food not at the top? You need them to survive.

8 Patience
9 Energy

Running out of energy is a big deal!

10 Electricity

I would not fare well without at least an hour of electricity.

The Contenders
11 Air
12 Pen Ink

This is why I get a new pen before a test and have some in reserve.

I have hundreds of pens. None of them work.

Hate when this happens. Which is all the time.

13 Batteries
14 Luck
15 Love

Love never dies. No fear of this invisible power-house ever running out.

Love never dies when Britgirl is here.

16 A Sense of Humor

If there's no humor in the world, why should we waste our time looking for what binds funny and random people into the earth?

Life would suck without a sense of humor there would be like no point in living.

17 Respect
18 Gas/Petrol
19 Fingers & Toes
20 Sanity
21 Cigarettes

Don't smoke then! Prevention is better than cure.

22 Comedians
23 Blood
24 Marijuana
25 Sugar

I need a sugar rush on a regular basis or I have a tendancy to run out of something else on this list.
