Oh, and back in the day, a lot of cars had the fuel filler/gas cap under the license plate. Once had to show some kids who were circling their car(or Mom's car) trying to find the damn thing.

True story. New Jersey does this. Weirdest thing I've ever experienced at a gas station. Dude gave me some kind of stink eye when I got out of my car.

I mean not going to lie. I would be mindfricked if I tried to put gas in a car and the gas cap was under the license plate.

That's what I thought y'all were talking about. Mine was not correct on my Tahoe.



Nope but the E on the gas Guage is on the filler side

Yeah, I remember hearing that a year or so back. Strange to me too. But the morons I spoke of were born & raised in Alexandria La. There was some gas station just off Jackson St Extension that they got gas at every time.

Haha my 07 Accord has no arrow, pump is on right side of the icon yet the caps on the left. But.... The gauge does empty from right to left. Yay!

Some of the old porsche's had the fuel tank/filler under hood of the car. Talk about confusing.

Pangea. I thought everyone knew this, but apparently I'm the only one at work who went to middle school.

I did t teach her, but my mother in law in her 40's learned grocery stores are for profit businesses', not just there to provide food to masses at cost.

Taught a girl in college that roosters are male chickens and hens are the females.

Polar bears don't eat penguins because there are no penguins at North Pole where polar bears are.

Taught a woman that she has more than 1 hole in her privates. She thought she just peed out of her vagina I guess. Had to draw it on a chick-fil-a cup.

I knew this was the case, but always wondered why I-110 in BR was even numbered since it runs north/south.
All spur routes off interstates keep the interstate number as its last two digits. The first digit denotes whether it's north/south or east/west

Good buddy of mine al the way until the end of college thought girls peed out of their asses. Funny because he got laid a time or two, and it's just funny to imagine how those girls had no idea how little he knew about the basics of their anatomy while banging them

I taught a cashier AND a customer how to figure out 50% off in a Sports Authority Store.

It was pretty pathetic. She messed up ringing it up. He said it "didn't sound right".(the price she rang up was about 15% off give or take a few bucks on a $250 coat.

Then, I watched them converse a minute or two and finally conclude that she was correct when she achieved a final price of about $170 on her machine.

I couldn't help it. I said, "um, no, that's not right". Then, I explained it. The look they gave me was about the same look I might expect to give someone if they proved to me the could move through higher dimensions.
