Default Fueling the Lexus just became comical

I found this humourous. Directions are not clear though, I wasn't sure if I should lay on the ground or lay the nozzle on the ground
A potential YouTube moment

Just be careful not to set the gas station on fire..


Here in Oregon, you're not allowed to fill up your car on your own.

That is funny... I assume that was found in Georgia... but in my motorcycle travels through Arkansas... I could see that posed on some of the smaller towns I've been through.
Now a picture of someone laying on the ground with that sign... that's youtube fodder, for sure. lol

Here in Oklahoma, there have been several instances where the air compressor at a gas station was out of order, with a piece of paper taped to it with BROKE written on it.

Yeah, it was a small town in Ga off I-95 - what would be even more of a stupendous display would be two people laying down at the same time

And then they get run over and fuel station skunge on their clothes. That will end the laughing quickly.
I find the Healy nozzles are a real frustration. If you just have to pump slow - OK, not the end of the world. It's when they keeping clicking off. How are you supposed to tell when the car is full? Clicking off? Yeah, well it's only the 50th time the pump has done that - so you keep trying and end up overfilling.
