The Don't Buy Exxon Gasoline Bit

The irony here is amazing.

Because 54% of the country is terminally stupid.

What's ironic about it? I am not the one passing along these emails about skipping the gas station on May 15th.. or etc.

You're passing along the stupid e-mail here. "You don't buy Exxon Oil. Exxon is forced to lower gas prices... and then to keep up, other companies lower gas prices... "

Did you not read the entire thing? You see, messages are meant to be read in whole. Read it again fuckwad.

"Don't Taze Me, Bro!" I have heard this silly sh_t twice in the last few days. Aparently an email

I just reply with this single link and no other comment:

I saw this. They'll just wholesale it to someone else.

Only 54%. ? surely you jest. I'm guessing 4 out of 5.

Maybe, but 54% is the only number verified formally, so I used that to avoid being challenged.

not worth the time.

1. the strength of the dollar. if your dollar is worth a lot you can buy more oil for it.

2. the amount of oil that opac produces. basic law of supply and demand. if they don't make it, the price goes up.

1. government taxes, where i am over 50% of the cost of fuel is government tax.

2. oil company shareholders. they want a good dividend so the oil company makes as much profit as possible on their product. one company only made a 255 million after tax profit for the last half of 2007, i think bp was ~3000 million in profit last year world wide.

The election of GWB - 54% voted for him, +/- a tiny fraction. There's your proof.

"And so, General, I want to thank you for your service. And I appreciate the fact that you really snatched defeat out of the jaws of those who are trying to defeat us in Iraq."-meeting with Army Gen. Ray Odierno, Washington, D.C., March 3, 2008

Cite?

Where's the documentation?

You take some off-topic statistic and post it as fact. Who someone voted for is no reflection on their intelligence.

And from what you posted this means 46% are dumber than a box of rocks...

Damn! This is scary (I posted my response before I read yours! ;)

Yeah, BP had a poor year last year. Didn't they sack the CEO?

Yes it is. Anyone who votes for a booze-damaged illiterate is an idiot. Bush is exactly that.

Wasn't that the margin for his first election? Maybe I'm off by a percent or two, but it doesn't change the truth of the concept.
