Just counted 22 cars waiting on gas pumps at Spinx in Powdersville


May 10, 2021, 9:51 PM

One couple I see is loading 5 gas cans in the back of their car. People, as a whole, have lost their #### minds

with a question.

Why don't you go fuck yourself, sweetie? Google Maps says it is an 18 hour and 42 minute bike ride. That totals around 37.5 hours out and back and I feel that will cut into our limited beach time. Plus, a cooler is hard to tote on a bike.

cause a gas shortage. You can't stack it like toilet paper: a one time filling of all tanks could cause a one week shortage, but after that you can't buy more than you use. If there is a shortage, its a real shortage.

Plenty of diesel

And its cheaper than premium is..which is odd as normally it's the other way around.

The pump I filled up at tonight had gas and diesel and the gas side was out of gas.

This morning, all the gas stations between gym and home, then home and kids school had plenty of space to get gas, no lines, no issues if'n you guys are so inclined as to go to Rock Hill to buy gas.

madhouse last night. Many people were filling up the car and gas cans. I was able to park right in front, bop right in to an empty store and snag a pack of Kool Menthol 100s, a 40 of King Cobra Malt Liquor, and a handful of lottery tickets with zero wait.


WINNING.

Banning menthols, vanilla dutchies, and grape white owls? Wonder what demo the FDA is going after here.

If they try to ban flavored dip next, us rednecks might finally be pushed to the brink of Civil War II.
