I don’t act irrationally about the price of filling up my car. I wait for it to click and go on about my day. Prices fluctuate on everything. I’ve never let those things affect how I live my life.

I work. I need gas to do that. I’m not going to cry about it or crow about it either way. Gas is just another necessity.

I have bigger fish to fry in my life.

people losing their shite over an extra dollar or two per fill up is kinda wild.


We literally did this with Biden and any other president for the last 25-30 years

I voted for Trump twice. Its okay to admit he is doing pretty shitty this go round. But thats what happens when you keep putting fricking 80 year olds in office


What’s insane is that THIS is considered a crazy take on this website

Most of my family voted for Trump on the basis of making everything more affordable…welp

The average American is poor as shite. They can't afford an extra $50/month for anything.


The average American is stupid with their money. I talked a guy who goes through a carton of cigarettes a week and puts down a minimum of 12 beers a night tell me with a straight face that he can't afford health insurance then the next week shows up with new rims on his truck that he can't afford ,but is paying 20% interest. People don't want to live according to their income and tend to make stupid and emotional decisions. Sadly, that is the norm.

Life is too short to drive sad cars.


Maybe not, this ad has had me secretly wanting a '99 Corolla for the last 8 years:

Craigslist

In the end, I hate boring cars, but they have their place.
