TIPS ON PUMPING GAS

Email

>>>Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. How long would all that take?

Any e-mail you get that includes that line, or anything similar, is probably crap, and the last thing you should do is blast it to everyone in your contact list, or post in a place like this.

When I was a kid,
Freepers would have known better
than to post this stuff . . .

Get a grip. Take from it what you will but there's no need to kill the messenger. It is obvious the intent of my post to help people. The least you can do is be appreciative of that fact instead of summarily ridiculing someone.

These guys obviously believe the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Some good info here though.

I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the one about poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet towel with every envelope that needs sealing.

Also, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown) who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me, and St.Theresa’s novena has granted my every wish.

I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or f eathers.

I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smel l like a water buffalo on a hot day

Thanks to you, I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.

I no longer can buy gasoline without taking someone along to watch the car so a serial killer won’t crawl in my back seat when I’m pumping gas.

I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr. Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put ‘Under God’ on their cans .

I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

And thanks for letting me know I can’t boil a cup of water in the microwave anymore because it will blow up in my face disfiguring me for life.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infecte d with Aids

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.

I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.

I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don’t support our American troops or the Salvation Army.

I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda , Singapore, and Uzbekistan

I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

Thanks to someone, I can’t use anyone’s toilet but mine because a big brown African spider is lurking under the seat to cause me instant death when it bites my butt.

And thanks to some great advice, I can’t ever pick up $5.00 I dropped in the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting underneath my car to grab my leg.

I can no longer drive my car because I can’t buy gas from certain gas companies!

If you don’t send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM this afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing you to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbor’s ex-mother-in-law’s second husband’s cousin’s beautician...

Have a wonderful day....

Oh, by the way.....

A South American scientist from Argentina , after a lengthy study, has discovered that people with insufficient brain activity read their e-mail with their hand on the mouse.
Don’t bother taking it off now, it’s too late.

This is close to advising not to walk under ladders.

I appreciate the information unlike some posters who jump down a person's throat right out of the gate.

No good deed goes unpunished. It would be easy enough to submit a post as mupcat did in post #4 instead of going on some diatribe what a horrible thing has been perpetrated against freepers. They fail to understand weblogs are a conduit to post information from many sources to confirm or refute.

Reading Snopes, at a minimum Sunoco does not import Middle Eastern oil. Here is the station locater-—

If you had availed yourself of using snopes before posting, you’d have known what is now obvious, and should have been.

Go whine and moan your diatribe to the admin moderator if your so adversely effected.

Believe it or not I wasn't aware scopes existed until mupcat politely informed me. You could have responded the same but you're so intent on building your ego by attempting to put someone down you forgot a little common courtesy can go along way.

You better pray you know everything for the future because otherwise someone like you will be doing his or her very best to make you look like an idiot.

Here's my tip for punping gas..
Print out a batch of little stickers that read little factoids like this:

Then, put 'em on the pump. Carry a whole sheet with ya.

Someone's bound to read 'em while their fuel bill is passing fifty bucks per fill up.

[Dog Gone]

Amoco no longer exists. That’s the first clue about this email.

[Dog Gone]

There is no company called BP/Phillips.

That’s another clue.

Thanks, no problem. He must be having a really rough day. Can't imagine someone being that rude on purpose.

Boy, are you going to be jealous when I'm making big money on my home computer in my refinanced home all while sporting a bigger penis.
