Gas Prices

Post by FallonCeceAda »

OMG! These gas prices are insane! It's almost $2 a gallon down here. How about near you? Does anyone know why the prices are rising so high?



*EDIT* Forgot to close the BB codes
I was talking to God, and I asked him

"God why don't you create a scientist who can find the cure for AIDS/HIV and Cancer? Why can't you send a leader to give world peace?"

You know what God said?

"I did, but you all killed them in the womb."

That's the price of being dependent on foreign energy.

How big's a litre? Lol, I'm showing my ignorance, I know... :P



Here it's $1.98 for regular. Of course, I can't drive at this time, so it doesn't affect me that much anymore, but they're still insane.



broken, yeah that is low compared to Europe, but you have to compare it to what we were paying at this time last year, and they year before. Can't compare to other countries, gotta compare it to ourselves.



If you compare us to other countries, we shouldn't be complaining about a damn thing. :)

Yeah, your prices are like ours were 10 years ago.



A gallon is equal to 3.98 litres.


So that means were paying morrrre... I think...but also you need to take in account the currency diff.[/b][/quote]



Yea, What might be 8$ could be totally different here. Plus they use to run on different currencys to, did the euro just start?

Wow you guys got it lucky, Chicago(and the suburbs surrending it) are up to about $2.23 a gallon for regular(highest I've seen)! Around my area, it's like $2.13 a gallon..I heard it's supposed to get up to $3.11 around here by summer
Your life is only as good as you make it. The hardships of life will bring any of us to our knees. No matter how high-spritied, no matter how optimistic. It'll pull us down, drag us through the dirt. Our lives will feel empty and pathedic, we'll have everlasting sadness. Though we must wait it out, beacuse this is usaully only a temporary thing. You must keep faith in yourself, while keeping faith in others. Protect the ones that hold and love you, for they are the most important people in your lives
