The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for June 06, 2022

Of course Gladys apparently doesn’t realize poor Brutus has no control over the speed to fill the tank.

Must be in California.

What car pump in the fuel from the rear?

It cost me 57.00 USD to fill my tank. It was a half of tank. Thanks, Vladimir.

My brothers ’57 Chevy Bel Aire has the gas filler behind the left tail light.. Looking at the rear end of the car they both look identical.You have to turn the upper chrome latch on the left tail light to open the gas filler. When he pulls into the service station, nobody knows where to fill it until he tells them how to do it.

Prepare to take out a second mortgage on the house.

Ain’t that the truth!

Now he can’t get gas without her nagging. Poor Brutus.

what is this, double price day?

Used to be, only gas that rose that fast was helium.

And it’s only gonna go higher… And to think we were energy independent only a few short years ago. I’ll leave it at that.

How can you hurry a pump? I wonder if she …never mind

i remember my buddy Bobby was the first to get his driver’s license when we were 16 and i gave him $3 for gas and filled his tank

I say time for a fundraiser. Send all those who want it to Russia, China and Sri Lanka.

I pumped $10 worth of gas, and had just enough to move to pump 3

June 6. 78th anniversary of D-Day. Thank you all for your service. Now and forever. Salute. God bless. My dad was there. He said it was beyond belief. Now a dictator has us on the brink of Nuclear war. How did the world ever allow that?

Brutus just takes whatever life throws at him. A staunch fellow?’

Boy, it sure seems that way…..

“Inflation,” a song by Zeke Manners from 1946 I think, on YouTube, could be about today!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAYFeaHv1WM

Pain in the gas.

I guess the cool people supposedly won (at least that was what a lot of people told me 16 months ago) and so all of us have to suffer from the results. thanks so much, cool people. sheesh sometimes I wish I voted for cool people – NOT

I try not to fret over it. If I need gas, I get it in my car. I am luckily a low mileage driver, though. When I was working, this would have really been a big issue for me as I had to daily drive all over the county and occasionally into nearby counties. I average 120 miles daily over 7 days a week.

Alas, no….Lower Mainland (Metro Vancouver) British Columbia….Global News has just gleefully assured us all that we have the highest petrol prices in North America.

That is what you get with electronic billboards v changing the price cards by hand the way they used to do it

That should be illegal!!! Our gas is usually quite a bit lower than the national average, around 30 cents or so.

I actually had the happen in Tennessee. The gas went up 10 cents after my card was approved. And for those who might ask, this was not a credit card surcharge.

How is it they can change the price of gas from gas that was already delivered?!

Comparing EV vs gas vehicle fuel costs is very complex. The folks at Kelly Blue Book using what they consider reasonable averages say that an EV fuel cost is $55 per month compared to $167 for gas for the same car types.

Kinda hard to laugh about it

Wow! I expected a great deal of “Monday Overthink” on this subject, but did not anticipate the high levels of mis-think, mal-think and non-think. Signed: Your Monday Ascerbic. : )

If Brutus is anything like me—and I believe he might be—hurry is not in his vocabulary.

To; Brutus P. Thornapple -CREATOR – You are a wise man to avoid this commentary today. : )
