    That was cool...

    So I went to the bank and picked up some money.

    Drover across the street to exxon to fill my car up because the light had just come on. It is cold out. I pull up to the pump and get out real quick. I decide to fill my car so I just use the little switch that lets me sit back in my car while it pumps away. I hear it click and go to see how much gas it took.

    EXACTLY, to the penny, $20.00. :shock:

    It was awesome, no bills to break or nothing. :D

    Just thought I would let you know. :roll:

    I always try to round it up. If it stops, I'll go until I'm at the next half, or full dollar. It's easier all around. ;)

    That is pretty cool though. 8)

      Careful, you shouldn't get back in the car while filling up. It can build static and cause explosion. I heard of this from the Petroleum Institute. No joke. If you do, be sure to ground yourself after exiting before approaching the gas area.

        Yeah, that is true. Kinda like filling a gas can, you have to place it on the ground. I was actually sitting with my door open, feet outside on the ground. But I forgot about the whole static thing, good thing I did not get inside fully.

          If there's anything that this horrible tragedy can teach us, it's that a male model's life is a precious, precious commodity. Just because we have chiselled abs and stunning features, it doesn't mean that we, too, can't not die in a freak gasoline fight accident.

                    Zoolander, one of the all time funniest movies ever made. You've got to give it up for a movie with Will Ferrell, Jon Voight, Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Jerry Stiller, Billy Zane and David Bowie all in it.

                      Eh, that's questionable. Personally, I'm not too worried about that happening.
                      I saw some lame show on the Discovery Channel with a couple dorky guys who tried to prove/disprove that - they couldn't spark an explosion at all, even when they were TRYING to purposely.

                      Plus, waiting in the car is for pussies. I always just stand outside at the pump. I guess that's why something like 6 out of 7 of those reported "static-sparked gas pump explosions" were women. Stay outside at the pump, then there's nothing to worry about.

                        I use the CC because I get double airmiles when I buy gas or eat at a restaurant.

                        The spark thing is unlikely. I shake the shit outta the pump so it doesnt drip on my car, Im more worried about my paint than my life.
                        Im now E30less.

                          A waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles eh? Well it took the pump maybe 10 minutes to fill the car up, it was so slow. And besided that I had just come from track practice in my shorts and t-shirt. It was around 0*. So don't call me a waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles.

                          Yes, I know I am stupid for not wearing a jacket.

                            You took the words out of my mouth. I do all I can to keep that gas off the bumper.

                            You gotta pull out fast. :D

                              I do that too. it's not my fault they haven't designed a better gas pump in the last 20 years.
