Yes, there was a hurricane, and yes there was a disruption in gas supply. HOWEVER, and this is a BIG HOWEVER. You are making the problem *worse* by going to go "fill-up your car while prices are low." You are artificially increasing demand, dumbass, while the supply is temporarily low. If you'd continue your goddamn normal habits then the prices would only modestly rise and not a single fvcking station not on the Gulf Coast would be running out of gas. You, the idiot consumer, are responsible for these major spikes in price. Some increase was expected, but you are exacerbating the problem in a major way. Take some fvcking economics classes you dumbass Americans.

Filling up your SUVs and THEN and THEN filling up portable gas tanks is goddamn stupid. If you'd stick to normal consumption the 10-14 day supply that most cities have would be more than adequate to keep prices at normal levels until production and refinement can resume. The EPA already lifting restrictions on refinery levels so they can refine more and make less blends, and Bush tapped the SPR. If you'd stop running around like a bunch of stupid ass chickens with your heads cut-off filling your tanks and spreading rumors there wouldn't be a damn problem.

You are all a bunch of morons and I hope you die. In fact, most of your filling your tanks are the same idiots saying NOLA deserved this for being built there. Who is the idiot now? The people who were effected by the weather (which we all get) or the the people who are artificially spiking demand and making their own problems worse?

Cliffs:
Morons keep bitching about gas prices and being scared gas will run out
Morons are their on worst enemy because at normal consumption prices would have barely risen due to existing supply
Morons have artifically spiked demand and thus prices have risen
Morons continue to wail and gnash their teeth because they are morons
You are all morons, die, etc

Not everyone is economists, not everyone is apparently as smart as you are. We buy when it's cheaper because of that exact same reason.

Shut your pie hole and move on.

Mill thank you. I have been thinking that all day. I was going to fill up yesterday when I had half a tank left, but I figure nah... to many people at the pump already and I'll let this pass over. We've already got enough people going crazy filling up their tanks.


I live in Fl, so hurricane season isn't anything new to me. Everytime a hurricane is projected to hit Fl, everyone here in Tampa goes crazy and fills up their tanks, causing a shortage for a few days. Its ridiculous, if you just acted normal and got gas when you NEEDED it we wouldn't have these problems.

Oh the countless ways I want you to die:

Swinging by your neck from a tree
Being eaten by Alligators
Getting sucked into a Jet Engine
Falling into a Wood Chipper
Being mauled by a Circus Lion
Getting crushed by a Steamroller
AIDS
Satan molesting you with a pitchfork
etc

edit: obtw, not that my opinion counts, but I strongly dislike a lot of the right wing asshats here ... mill may not be very liberal, but he's far more consistent, logical, humorous, and in general gives the appearance of being a more decent human being than the rest put together.

So basically what you are saying, is that you are proud of a being a complete and total idiot wallowing in your own ignorance? Good stuff then, just wanted to translate it for the other idiots out there.

Oh, it makes me happy alright. Just another sucker to sell my gas futures to here shortly. I appreciate the financial gain that you and others are willing to help me with. Without idiots like you I might actually have to struggle to make money.

I fill up when my tank is on E. I'm not about to hit a pump with a tank that is 3/4 full just because the price fell a few cents. I hate getting gas.

While I will join along and bitch about the gas prices raising, I will also continue to bend over and take it up the butt because there is nothing that can be done about it. The simple fact is that there is no substitute for gas. We need it and they know it.
