Subject: more gas TOOLSWhat the hell is wrong with people? I just heard on the radio that there is a rumor (read as: RUMOR) that every single gas station in the DC metro area will be closing at 4pm due to a mandate by the government. Are you kidding me?!?! So I walk out of my apartment, thinking to myself "Who are the idiots that believe this, and then run to the gas station to fill up every empty container they can find?" Before I can even finish my thought, I hear a voice "You better get some gas if you don't already have it, they are shu..." I couldnt even let her finish the sentence. "No, Ma'am. They aren't going to close all of the gas stations. If they run out of gas, then yes, they will close. Because they have nothing else to sell. That's the only reason." Her: "But my son just called me from Tyson's Corner, and he stopped two places that were already closed..." Me: "Well then, I suppose its a good thing you got your gas, isn't it?" To make it worse, there is already a gas station down the street charging $4.79, and the employees at the gas station are telling people that they will have to shut down at 4:00. Yes, the employees at the gas station are telling people this. Here's your sign: STUPID. |
