Yeah it's pretty annoying when they go like half speed compared to others.

Like you would think the service station would have an incentive to get that fixed, as it means fewer cars go through the station

Put it on automatic mode, sit in your car and listen to music. It's ok as long as you're not in a hurry, and if you're in a hurry, why are you getting gas?

That feeling when you're filling up at an unpopulated gas station. And someone pulls up at the opposite side of the same pump you're at. And their gasoline pumping slows down the flow for your pump, when they could've gone to any of the other 20 available pumps.

Rage.

Going back into your car when filling up is proven to cause explosions. Don't do that.

Not true.

Gas pumps that pump half gasoline, half water into your car when you're at the very end of a 1,000+ mile trip with most of what you own in your car are the worst.

Happened to my roommate too.

Fun trip.

I have never had any such experience. I don't go to second rate gas stations though. There's plenty to choose from around here and it all costs the same.

You're not supposed to get back in your car while gas is pumping. Something about static electricity or such.

Technically, sure. But seriously what are the odds of this? I can't find a source for odds, so maybe my google-fu is just rusty, but I kind of doubt the odds of lighting your car on fire due to static electricity are less than, say death due to a roller coaster.

Your battery can be on without the car running.

So you're going to add some small chance of dying to your life to ease the boredom of waiting for your gas to pump while outside the car.

Please forgive me for NOT doing that.

People do lots of stuff to play the odds. Riding a roller coaster has a small chance of resulting in death, but plenty of people do that and it's entirely unnecessary.

A car battery can be used as a blunt object to hit someone.

A car battery cannot allow you to fly.

Don't tell me what to do, Anri.

Skydiving, bungee jumping, rock climbing, etc.

That's a bit more extreme though...

Listen to this man.

EVERY time I've gone back into my car while filling up, it has exploded.

What if you rig a slough of car batteries to power a some kind of propeller-backpack-thing.

Car battery powered flight. ^_^

Exactly, the chances are incredibly small that you'll die from such things, but there's a chance none the less. I avoid those kinds of things because I'm a huge wuss and have natural survival instincts. However, I enter and exit my car at a gas station because I'm prone to boredom in the summer and would prefer to not be cold in the winter. I have poor survival instincts when it comes to man made stuff.

Just uh, be sure and touch metal/the outside of your car when you're getting back out and any static electricity you do have should be discharged.

I have the natural tendency to close the door as I leave/enter the car anyway, so, there you go.
