    $30 for 11 gallons of regular unleaded. Thanks Biden and you tree hugging anti-pipeline fools.

    It was $2.66/gallon at Kroger. Wasn’t even a full fill up, just topping off the tank before hitting the road. Its a good thing my wife’s car gets 25+ mph on the highway.

    Filled up yesterday at $3.29. $57

    Waiting to hear how Trump's 1.79 two years ago was the lagging result of Obama's presidency like they did the stock market.

    I have a 33 gallon tank and go 2 weeks between refills. I usually put in about 27 gallons for about $80. I haven't paid over $3/gal yet.

    Seen that, plus his wife and son murdered and housekeeper with a suspicious death and he hasn't given the houskeepers children several hundred grand each.

    Then the boyfriend who won't help police with the missing girlfriend, this country is failing bad and it's only getting worse.

    Or a dog of any kind.

    My lab NEVER shuts up when someone is at the door. It really starts when she sees them in the driveway.

    My little yappers have figured out the difference between a regular text tone and the tone the wife on her phone gets when the cameras send an image. A vehicle does not even in the driveway and they start barking.

    Those crafty panda welding videos on Facebook.

    1. Don’t show me “welding tips” when you’re just making a bunch of tacks.
    2. If you already have a drill press, a grinder, a mig welder, a bunch of raw materials, chances are, you probably have a damn claw hammer to pull nails out and don’t need to fab a nail puller.
    3. Saw one where they drilled 3 holes in a 26mm wrench, threaded bolts into it, so they could take off a smaller nut. You have all that stuff but no adjustable wrench?

    You ever have a day where you just want to go get some chewing tobacco and eat like 3000 calories of junk food? Yeah that's me. Havent chewed for awhile but its calling my name. Also realized this week I've only had one full week off work since last November. I may take 3 weeks off this fall. Dgaf

    same goes for any commercial with dogs/cats...my dogs have figured out the lead in music/sound effects for any regularly run commercial and come barreling into the living room to snarl and bark at the TV whenever one of those comes on.

    that also applies to the lead in music for BHOD. Or whenever anyone on any hunting show goes "meh" or the sound of elk bugleing...

    ...or maybe my dogs just suck,

    Though my big dog is the most alert and best guard dog, the female will sound off to what seems like an imagined sound. This in turn gets my big dog barking because he wants in on it and I finally have to tell them both to knock it off.

    Sometimes I swear she does this for the attention.

    Youngest dog "thinks" she hears something and starts barking the other 2 going in. I often say why are you listening to that idiot, shut up.
