Punch the guy on the bench. My kid a few years ago playing at Peppard. Got rubbed out on the boards, immediately left the ice. Thought he was being pus. Fataing bolt was sticking out of the boards. Tore up his back for 15 stitches. Massive scar today years later.

My truck has a 121 litre tank.
Apparently, in my area (DEER VALLEY), gas prices are some of the highest in the city...
1.359 / l on average...
Its a 30 dollar average saving for me to go to Costco instead.
Plus, what else is there to do at 6:30 on a Sat morning.
I'm up anyways...and the lines are always short at that time.
YMMV...

I routinely put 140-145 litres in if I’m on empty, so it can be worth the trip. On a side note, the pumps used to max out at $200, the guy behind you was already impatiently waiting for you to pump 145 litres into the mouth of the gluttonous beast, then when the pumps tripped off at $200, you would have to replace the nozzle and start the payment process again to get a full tank.
Jokes on me I guess.

It sounds like you guys are driving vehicles straight out of Mad Max and having to wander the desert searching for Guzzoline!
I'm with Burninator. I've got a 50 Liter Tank so I dont care where I fill up.
Also, I dont drive all that much so its not a terribly huge expense for me, but I dont mean that in a 'Fart Sniffing' kind of way like some might...

So do I, been in a 3 hour meeting on reducing venting and flaring and emissions reductions with instrument air with carbon credits. But virtue signaling is way more effective. I was being facetious.

How are they reducing venting and flaring with instrument air? Seems that dumping all your instrument air would probably lead to more flaring after those NC valves lose pressure haha

Use nat gas for instrument gas on lots of old XOM sites. Also other sites where we have vapour recovery and pilot light flaring. Vent hatches and such. All sorts of things.

It's not so well crafted it filters by users. Anyone can look good in a sun dress if they utter the correct words in the correct order and I view the thread in Firefox with Greasemonkey enabled and the script loaded.

I have a 100% success rate of them screwing up at least one thing with that.
Last time they didn't send an entire box of stuff.
Time before that, grapes moldy, cauliflower was the "buy today 30% off" one, without the 30% sticker scanned, and already smelled funny.
Time before that, "we don't have any milk left, we're all out" so that gets cancelled. Drive there and there's tons.
Just consistently terrible. Absolutely GMG.

I kind of suspected this would be the case. Superstore unloading all of its expiring perishables and expecting the customers to let it slide. And if it wasn’t the store, it’s just be lazy pickers who don’t really care that much. It’s the en####tification or delivery services.

I assume this is simply excess O2 to increase combustion efficiency.
