So I filled up my gas tank

[Maguspk]

Because Obama is already in office and he is the reason they're this low. Bush is no longer in office and cannot possibly be any part of the reason for the prices going down but was without a doubt the reason they went up in the first place.

The president has absolutely nothing to do with gas prices. Bush also had nothing to do with gas prices believe it or not.

My honda will fill up for about $13 and last about 2 weeks. How is that not positive?!?

Well, sure the price is nice. I'm not saying it's a bad thing but the reasons for it being this low are definitely something to be worried about not something to celebrate over.

[SephYuyX]

Interpreting anything positive about the gas price drop is just foolish.

Gas being cheap is a positive, and im not earning any less, or spending any more. So just by gas lowering this much means more in the bank.

[Vandole]

$1.97 a gallon here at kroger today. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck yeah.

[Senoska]

I nearly shat a brick today when I filled FULL for $18. It was costing me 50-60 a few months ago

Taking Khamsin seriously when he may not be serious should be a bannable offense.

Taking Khamsin seriously when he may not be serious should be a bannable offense.

It's near impossible to tell when he's serious (if ever) though. It would make for good entrapment.

[Khamsin]

Or maybe by keeping people guessing, it's a clever way to hide my stupidity when I really am serious!

But here's a hint for future reference. Most things I say, I say because it's either the common perception, the exact opposite, or the down-side to a situation presented in a positive light... all of which to prompt a thought process that, in most people, would lead them to seeing what's wrong with it if they didn't already realize it.

Or as a joke to satirize something, or to be facetious, or just be a plain jerk.

Or, sometimes... I just say something seriously stupid and when I get called on it, I can say I was just kidding and safe face.

I entered the thread expecting that someone was going to say this being all because of Obama, so I didn't really care who made the comment, I was going to make mine Because even if you were joking, there are people on these boards that probably agree with your comment.

[arus2001]

While I wouldn't say it's Obama, my tinfoil hat will never shake the possibility that an oil man president and his oil man VP had absolutely nothing to do with an international oil crisis. Bitch probably has OPEC on speed dial.

[Conrad]

It kind of annoys me that gas prices are going down, if only because it means that nothing will be done to remedy the situation long-term if people aren't complaining about it.

However, that doesn't mean I'm not happy about the current prices. It's hovering around $2-2.15 in South Jersey, and about 10 cents higher where I go to school.

[Haelian]

I filled up my tank from empty with only 20 beans and shed a tear. Was I think $2.13 a gallon over here in Taxachusetts. I really needed the lower price personally, the last time I put gas in my car all I had to spend was the change I scrounged out of my car, which I believe was $1.52.

[Scythiroth]

All of the people paying less than $2 makes me sad. I paid ~$2.40 a gallon here today.

[Tricen]

2.20$ for me :/ Then again, I barely drive

[archibaldcrane]

Don't worry, the new world order hasn't arrived yet. It's still 2.70-2.90 for regular unleaded in L.A.

down from 4.60 but still

[Awoir]

~1.45/gal here!

[Cesaria]

It's about 95p /litre (curse these stupid metric measurements) here... went up to about £1.20 a couple of months back.
Reminds me - I need to go out and fill up actually - doing my usual running on fumes thing.

[Demosthenes]

paid $2.oo yesterday, should I be getting scared?

[rithridan]

1.59 €/litre a month ago and 1.23 €/litre when I filled up this week. Cost me about €50,-. Gimme your gas prices please!!

[Jodwahh]

On behalf of everyone from England, I'd like to say fuck you all, and fuck your petrol prices.
