Just saw on news that Hampton Roads is at 70% closed now. Only a matter of time before that number gets applied to the rest of the state.

I don't understand; what were you going for with the "and get some of that there gas-o-line!"

Well, unfortunately, if you drove your kids to school this morning, as I did, and your indicator was on empty, as mine was, and you found that your usual station was completely out of gas and the one nearby had long lines, you might feel differently. Or should I demand that my kids spend the night at school to avoid driving up the gas prices?

It's no one else's fault that you let your gas get that low.

So yeah, personal responsibility take some.

There's nothing to take responsibility for. I drove my kids to school, and on the way back, the low fuel indicator came on so I needed to get gas. That's neither irresponsible nor panic buying.

Where are people storing these trash cans of gasoline? In their garages?

I have a 500 gallon tank under the house in my illegal bunker. HOA doesn’t know anything and it will remain like that until I perish. At which time my memoirs will be published and the house turned into a museum type of B&B for my family to live lavishly and free of worry.

All that I can say is, unless some of you are in NC or a place where gas is truly out, freaking out over having to wait in a line for a little bit for gas or drive a little ways to get to a station with gas is the most white person thing ever. I thank God every day I was born black.

I don't think anyone is concerned with the inconvenience. It's more about wondering how long this will last and if we will get to the point where gas is truly out. I know people who were planning road trips, or have long commutes, or things like that and they are trying to figure out whether to change their plans.

Adding that it is disconcerting to encounter closed pumps when we were reassured that their is no gas shortage.
