I hear the prostitutes in Las Vegas have a new efficient method of payment. They call it "pay at the pimp".

Hey, I get yelled at plenty for pumping my own.. Sometimes I just dont feel like waiting for the attendant. Some stations don't even blink an eye when you do.

Goofy left turns? You mean jughandles? There may be alot in Joisey, but thats a NY thing LOL. Jersey should be famous for the Jersey Barriers (the concrete barriers in the middle of the road). I guess where I live (NW part of the state, aka, the mountains) theres not many jughandles, and more "normal" left turns then in the rest of the state. There's also less highways here (which means HORRIBLE commute)

Yep, I can see the advantage of walking inside instead of taking 10 seconds and paying at the pump.
California has a lottery but the stations that i have been in had a seperate register for the station and the lottery.

But i can see everyone is just going to bring up stupid arguments to justify it. Being lazy if you buy food instead of growing your own????

Is there an award for the best use of the word "troglodyte"?

I think BrianD might just have earned a nomination.

The last resort of someone who makes a point they cannot support. Call the other arguments "stupid".

I am sorry, but you have not made it to the next round. Thanks for playing, we have some lovely parting gifts.

I can support my point easily. I have no problem going in to pay for my gas, i have done it and will still do it. I have dragged my daughter in with her car seat to pay for the gas. Now that she can walk no need to do that now. Obviously with the big line you are so worried about they have no problem going in to pay for there gas either. So i will be returning your parting gift.

That is unfortunate. I thought you would have enjoyed it.
