“But unless you think the earth went hundreds of millions of years doing nothing, then magically started spitting out oil at 90 millions barrels a day, then we are using it faster than it is being produced.”

What purpose is this post?

If the Earth produced trillions and trillions of barrels of oil over the years, so what if we now produce it faster than it is generated?

Sorta like if one drinks a gallon a day from a lake that has a billion gallons of water in it and is not being replenished.

It is drying up by your analogy, but so what, it still contains a bunch of water.

The point was in response to those claiming the earth is producing oil as fast as we are using it. It was the whole point of the math to show that false.
