THE GAS THREAD- News, Prices, and Feelings (5+ years in the making)

they say history repeats itself… but i thought it was a gas shortage in the 70s… not high as hell prices…

Got to factor in the cost of living in the 70’s versus now.

The price of oil quadrupled by 1974 to nearly US$12 per barrel (75 US$/m)

In the United States, the retail price of a gallon of gasoline rose from a national average of 38.5 cents in May 1973 to 55.1 cents in June 1974

please ask pops how did he cope… seriously. i know he was military but still… need some wisdom from the og’s.:sad::sad:

heres the article on life with 10 dollar gas…

MSN

It wont be, we’re gonna have to move out of this country.

but see thats why I want to hear from our parents an elders… cause i bet they had this same “talk” going on durin their time

“OMG GAS IS GONNA BE 5 BUCKS IN THE FUTURE!!”

history does repeat itself… so is this a repeat of the 70s early 80s??

Can’t, he was overseas (Germany); then he hit Hawaii in the early 80’s.

I thought Bush sign a bill to open the reserves in Alaska?!?!?

fuck it

lets go to alaska and take over the oil reserves by force

koops an ex con right, you can show us all how to shoot guns

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

naw… i grew up around ex-cons/killas that showed me how to shoot guns:rofl::rofl:

4.18 for unleaded…wtf

Jesus fuck. That is where it gets ridiculous.

fucc outta here… u serious playa???

hot damn… chi town playaz gonna start shootin… i can see them ktown fools now…

“put ya fuccin hands in the air jo’ this is a fuccin stick up…gimmie a cot damn fill up on 8 jo’…”

i’ll try and take a picture tomorrow :confused: It was just 3.96 not even 4 hours ago!

What you know about K-town son? No one says jo much in the chi.

joe wat you talkin about joe?

got connects an family everywhere playa… i dont go places where i cant lay my head comfortably wit people i know. an i know my kin folk up there are hurtin just from what rekka is postin…

Damn that’s murder. I think I passed up a mobile with 3.91 today, this shit’s outta control.

It’s funny to me that some folks think it will go down…those days are over. They may drop it a litte, but only after raising it a lot. (*set the price at 3.70…then jump up gradually to 3.98…then go back down to 3.81 and people call that a “relief”…bitch please) They can basically charge whatever the hell # they pull out of their ass, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. What, you going to walk to work/school? The prices fuck you on groceries too…so it fucks you one way or the other. It isn’t like non-essential goods like say…video gamse. If a system came out costing 900 bucks with each game costing 300.00, people would laugh and not buy it…and it loses.

This is why I want to hunt them down like animals…and torture each and every last one of them. I don’t care who exactly it is…just whoever’s generally running this shit. I would get off on tearing the skin off their bones, pissing in their eyes, carving a tongue up, snatching their teeth out with pliers, lowering them feet-first into a woodchipper, repeatedly breaking the limbs in various ways, put their nutsack into a meat-grinder, the list goes on and on…smash your goddamn neck wide open with a sledgehammer, burn your fingers and toes, etc. etc. Goddamn it warms my heart just imagining this…I could get off sexually on doing all that and a lot more to those bitches. These people are lucky I will never be within close proximity of them. Police may come to the scene sure…but it would already be much, much too late for you.

hhahaha Million never disappoints, but its true this shit isn’t EVER going back down. You cant tell me something isn’t wrong win big oil is make billion dollar profits. We all know its way more expensive in europe and other places but fuck them, I live here. I how that sounds but it’s time the U.S. says fuck the world and go a more isolationist path, work on infrastructure, new energy sources and basically takes some time to get some of our shit together. O and on another note I like the idea of Alaska and all that, but fuck ANWAR too.

We all need to walk up to random people of Middle Eastern decent, grab them by the collar and scream,?Give me the fuckin’ oil!!!"
