Stupid humans are sometimes scary!
I was at the gas station, getting gas. Easy enough. There is one pump with a white hose for E-85 at the station I frequent. A normal looking mid 30s male human gets out and starts to pump some E-85 in his Ford sedan. I am pumping 100% gasoline a few pumps away. He starts jumping around, and then tosses the nozzle on the ground, and the side of the white hose is spraying out a stream of fuel. It continues to spray fuel, as he runs inside. I finish pumping my gas, and pull my car over to the other end of the parking lot away from the pumps, and go over to the gas spill and see what is happening.
Sure enough the pump is still running, but the nozzle is not letting fuel out, there is a puncture in the side of the hose. The 30 something male comes back over and I suggested he just hang the nozzle up in the spot and the pump will turn off. He does, and sure enough the the pump stops pressurizing the hose and the spray of fuel stops. I suggest he go back inside and get the clerk to bring out the spill cleanup material. He let $7.50 in fuel spray on the ground. The clerk came out upset he was going to have to report a fuel spill, and deal with the mess. I suggested to the clerk (a 20 something male) he put a bag on that pump and an out order sign up on it.
He told me to f-off, so I did, I left.
Not my pig, not my farm.
Two idiot human males, (neither qualified as a man in my world of definitions)
And they both likely vote. Scary thought.
