I know exactly where those are

2020 versus 2021:

This sounds like the words of a knowledgeable expert with lots of relevant experience. Therefore, they are lies.

Upvoting for Wilmington NC, glad someone is still sensible there, got family there
AZRAELSBLADE
It was their BILLING software
Kenblu24
Does it really matter? They had to shut *all* of their systems down anyways.

I've filled up my car 4x in 14 mo. Working from home. Let the oil companies burn.

If idiots want to hoard gas unsafely and blow themselves up, who are we to argue? I've neither the crayons or tupperware containers to care
nemo3590
The issue is that the hoarding is causing actual shortages. There are dry pumps all around my area due to these idiots.
azazyel
You can't reason with people that paranoid and selfish
wkearney99
"you can't reason with people". ftfy.
socraticmeathead
Yeah. That exactly what someone would say who wanted to get in front of me in line.
jimmythehat1
I sure hope the Feds tagged the $5 million in ransom money paid and bust those hackers.
thisappisajoke
And all the people who need to see it won't. Typically people stupid don't know how to internet well.

Hey, it’s a post about my hometown on Imgur. What a coinkidink!
TheUglyGuy
Shame on you for posting common sense! That is utterly unacceptable in this forum!
BillyM00n
This is way better than common sense. It's first-hand industry expertise—more valuable than common sense by 10 times.
ReginaKasteen
Uncommon sense.

I used Nextdoor for one month. Had to get off because people don't know how to use it correctly and it just turned into FB
Iwannaseeit
What is nextdoor?
duhqueenmoki
It's SUPPOSED to be a platform where you only have access to users in your same neighborhood to post community events, crime activity-
duhqueenmoki
-lost and found, garage sales, pets in the neighborhood. But it's BECOME ppl just posting politics and ads for their business
duhqueenmoki
Also, a lot of ppl use it just to conplain like "who's lighting off fireworks!! Be quiet!!" And going on rants.
fluffyeggs25
Signed up during hurricane Florence which was helpful. It's very good at showing how absolutely insane your neighbors are.
Baeloro
Yup. And when you panic and buy up all the gas, retailers are forced to pay more for emergency shipments of gasoline and you see prices rise
somethingstupidandclever
How many gallons is my truck bed?
kjtodd11
I just wanna fill my car up like I have to every week and I can’t because of you fucking idiot assholes.
ticktockbent
Can we coin the term Gashole for these idiots hoarding gas?
Pegaxs
Same with toilet paper. A manufacturer posted photos of a massive warehouse full to the top, yet still the morons bought it out.
jorr2944
Hot take- if the governor hadn't declared an emergency no one would have even noticed a thing
GrosseChung
So are actual shortages just due to people panic buying?
leodavinci1
No. Shortages started almost as soon as the pipeline was shutdown.
RenoXIII
It's like the toilet paper fiasco of last year. People are fucking dumb.
shanasphone350
Facebook in TLH. GAS, is being hoarded worse than tp and papertowels in early 2020. No masks in sight
Jusmar
Wonder who started that

Yes

As I have often said, the primary cause of fuel shortages is rumored possibility of fuel shortages.
kitterkat
And people are blaming Biden ?
Filanwizard
I figured the fuel for Wilmington came from New Jersey. Though Delaware does have a refinery
missboohiss
Wilmington, NC
fluffyeggs25
Yesterday afternoon there was 1 station left with gas on the south end of town. At least an hour wait. Walmart had some today.
Rocksteady412
I also live in Wilmington, NC and this guy is correct. STOP IT PEOPLE!!
microraptor223
I didn't buy any gas, and now we are reaching the bottom of the tank on both of our cars. What do?!?!?
sbmccall
Same, people need to go drive on River Road and check it out
w1k2
Honest question: Why are the prices going up?
BurtTyrannosaurusMacklinFBl
Second reason: a lot of Petro producers have opted to focus on lubricant cuts over fuel cuts in distillation due to manufacturing return

When has this happened before? My in laws are coming so I need to prepare my answers for when they yell “ThaNKs, BiDEN!”
wellthatsjustyouropinion
if the MAGA crowd wants to hoard gasoline in plastic bags in the trunk of their cars to own the libs, it's time to let them do their thing
tracereading
That only works if they're the only one affected by this jerkassery.
ElbowDeepInAHoofbun
Maybe we can convince them Biden secretly replaces gas with non-flammable stuff and they should light matches to check their stockpile.
DonL9
With hope, some might go full Pinto mode.
shanasphone350
Agree
OverwhelmingSurplusOfDiggity
In the hot southern heat? Yes. Yes, this is a good idea. Gasoline vapors are how you know you stored it safely!
lucindamarie18
Remember to close the car windows too after filling up those trash bags with gas..dont be wasting the A/C.
magicrhombus
You really think that wouldn't cause problems for 3rd parties not responsible for that stupidity? MAGA stupidity never hurts only them.

Gave under "sad truth" of course.

Unfortunately so so true.

Ok well that’s you’re opinion. My Facebook essential oils pyramid scheme mom group says the opposite soooo… /s
decarnatedame
It's not a pyramid scheme. It's mult-level marketing. There's no pyramid.
Techpriest93
Make sure to add half a cup of sugar to the gasoline if your going to store it. It stabilizes the gas and the crystal sugars purify contamin

I got into it yesterday about vaccines with a woman on WoW and I asked if she had any actual medical training or background in biological ~
pookieeatworld
science and she responded that she has a Master's in Homeopathy and so I just tore her to shreds.

Hope you countered with "I have a PhD in Homeopathy"

I have a Bachelor's of Dark Arts in Alchemy.
