I have no idea about your RIR, but RIPE ran out of addresses in 2019: https://web.archive.org/web/20200402212112/https://www.ripe.net/publications/news/about-ripe-ncc-and-ripe/the-ripe-ncc-has-run-out-of-ipv4-addresses
They have a waiting list for reclaimed addresses: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/ipv4/ipv4-waiting-list/
Days that first LIR in queue has been waiting: 524
I get that outlook is a joke, but this one misses a punchline and reads like an ad.
