Positive lol. I never check gas prices as 91 is always really expensive so it makes me cringe, but I glanced over while filling up and noticed it was at 8.79 per...

8.79? Where? That one gas station in Florida that's the last gas for a zillion miles?

As for the $1 charge, that's normally just to verify your CC works. You'll probably see them refund the $1 and then the full charge will appear on your statement.

San Diego, CA big city, millions of gas stations to choose from. and no, its not pending, its a posted transaction, no charge besides the $1 :O but its called something weird on my statement....

San Diego Cause -_-

Trust me, I've looked everywhere else and the gas charge is non existant.

he was supposedly heterosexual 100%...
there are lots of weird people here, (only local for 3 years roughly now) and I continuously hear/interact with some of the strangest people and requests ever. Its terrible in a funny sort of way.

by the way, why do I hear about the public fapping thing, I must have missed the ordeal that made that (widespread?)

Since it bears on the subject of gas, the new GPS that took the Harley dealership 6 hours to install tells me how much gas I have! Why look at teh fuel gauge when I have an awesome digital display? Big smile

Also it only costs me $10 to fill the tank (91 octane) Cool

If your wife/GF ever messes with your bathroom...

...Then you now know exactly how to, errrm, deal with the situation.

Al Bundy = God of the Working Class.

E:

(from an older episode, I think)

Peggy comes home from wherever: "Hi, honey, did you miss me?"
Al: "With every bullet so far!" (his expression is just priceless, too)

Gods, I miss when TV was goodTwisted

Star Wars: the Old Republic may not be EVE. But I'll take the sound of dual blaster-pistols over "NURVV CLAOKING NAOW!!!11oneone!!" any day of the week.

Al vs. Marcie lols, best lols!

Gods, that show was brilliant --brilliant, I say!-- and even better, just one of many great shows of all types from the 80s/90s.

(Dialogue like that would probably get you sued by some pathetic victim-badge waving women's group today.)
