Why we don't inflate our tires.
Because the thieving pig-f*ckers at the oil companies decided to squeeze a few more pennies from us by charging for air. And then moving the air hose away from the gas pumps, making it a major pain in the ass to inflate our tires. When it was free and easy, we could keep them inflated.
So how about a national call for free air at gas stations.

Curses ! Who would have thought a private company would make you pay for its services.
Wait, I know, Lets get Big Brother to FORCE them to give it to us for free.

1. just ask the person behind the counter to turn on the air.
9 times out of 10, they do it for me.

32. By the way, no oil company would complain if one of their station managers put in free air.
It could only increase sales.
A glimmer of sanity and the sound of a chisel on a granite slab.

2. By law, that air (and water) is free in California
California. Why am I not surprised.

7. I didn't know that.
But, then, I just got my drivers license after not having one for ten years. So I missed out on all that.
I got my license without even taking the driving test.
Gave 'em a fake address, too.
It was so easy.
TOMMY BOY !!!

11. Excuse me,
but how did you manage in Tiburon without a D.L.? I lived in San Francisco for ten years without owning car, but occasionally I had to rent one.
So shoot me -- I'm nosy.
Ha managed because he's TomInTib. Heck, whenever Chuck Norris gets stuck, he calls Tom in to help.

20. Actually, it is quite simple.
I live on the hill in Old Town, directly over the Ferry landing. I can walk to a dozen restaurants and four bars in just a few minutes.
In the past, if i wanted to go out of town, I would offer to buy gas in exchange for a ride.
But when gasoline nudged $5, I said to hell with that. So I got a license.
And I joked around with the nice lady at DMV in Corte Madera and she wrote something on the bottom of my application that waived the driving test requirement.
I was astounded.
"You so funny, you so cute. You don't need no driving test."
That's what she told me.
Bwaahahahahahaa.

...and how in the hell are they supposed to pay for the electricity to run the machine? How are they supposed to pay for the maintenance on the machine? How are they supposed to pay for the MACHINE? This idiotic ****ing point is about like arguing why the gas stations charge you for gas. Water? They have to pay for that as well. How else do you think they get it? Magic? Someone has to clean it. Someone has to maintain the lines to the station. Someone has to install the faucet. Damn you idiots are stupid. :censored:
Here, you want free air? Get off your lazy asses and buy one of these:

Just like DUmmie not to know that the VAST majorty of gas stations are not owned by any major oil company.
Even big EEEEEVIL Exxon only owns about 2,000 stations in the entire country.

I thought Tit had a high end Porsche?

If you're bitching about spending 50-75 cents to inflate all four tires, you are too damn stupid to f'n drive. ::)

They think everything in the world is free but has been captured by some evil company to deny them access to it.
It is stupidity beyond description.
As for Tom....we all have had dealings with the DMV and they are many things but slacking about paperwork requirements is not one of them.
Nice fake pat on your own back you demented fool.
Keep that phony life going so you will inevitably die poor,broke,lonely and miserable.

I have something similar to this:

Guess the DUmmies are to damn cheap to buy one. ::)

It use to be all stations had water and air on the island - no one gave a second thought to not being able to have air and water available when filling up. But things change. We use to get free dishes or some other nifty thing when we filled up, too. And Green Stamps. And a cute tiger tail to hang out the gas tank door. And who can forget Fina's "Pink Air Coming In 1966" promo?
Of course, we use to get bath towels in a box of laundry detergent and really cool toys in our cereal boxes.....
Things change. Time marches on. Time has feet just like crows.

Zero bongs. I know he can't lie well, but he could at least make an effort. ::)

TiT is so full of shit that he makes other people's eyes brown.

What gets me is this. Ok so if everyone inflates their tires then what? Have you noticed Mr. O that not every car in the USA is a brand new prius? I swear that ever since states dropped the yearly inspections and all that went with it for cars and trucks that soome idiots will drive anything as long as it goes someplace. Alot of these cars look like they were stolen off the backlot of a MAD MAX movie. If those cars had all four tires inflated to their correct pressure then how are you going to account that thing like the plugs and filters are also being maintianed?

Food is a necessity ..... I think it should be free to all. They have moved it too far from me and I can't get it when I want it. They should have to deliver it to me for free.
DUmbasses.

You know, I don't like the idea of someone being on the road who perhaps can't pass a driving test. Puts everyone in danger. Perhaps the supervisor of the Corte Madera DMV needs to be called and warned that one of her female employees is giving away driver's licenses just for being cute and funny (she also should be required to take an eye exam because TiT is one UGLY MOFO).

You know that it's worth it. The time alone dropping a dime on TiT over it is entertainment enough.

It's just like him claiming that the Tiburon cops were in his back pocket...one day, someone is going to care that he's lying on their watch.
