Newest wife argument....
Wife calls me at 6:15pm and states the gas fill flap thing will not open to allow gas pump to be inserted. It has one of those capless gas fills.
"are you at a Diesel pump?"
"no i'm not stupid..."
"have you gotten gas there before...at THAT pump?"
"no...what does that matter gas is gas....I can't even push the flap open with my finger its all broke"
"you're not supposed to be able to stick your finger and open it"
"i've done that 100s of times...its broke"
"why would you try to open it 100 times with your finger?!?!??!"
"Im low on gas what do you want me to do?!?!!?!?"
"...funny...I just went out to my car(same as hers) and I cannot push open the flap but if I insert the fuel fill tube it opens...you must have a special car."
"Did you try another pump?"
"they're all the ****ing same!!!!!"
"Ok, just try another place down the road and let me know if it works there"
"If it doesn't work here...it's not gonna work there...."
"maybe...maybe not, at least try it...kind of odd for it to just not work all of a sudden with no signs or anything"
"This is why I don't bother you with car questions you always think i'm stupid!!!!!"
"No, im just trying to rule out variables and get you going....go try another place and call me if it doesn't work. I'll bring gas in a can or the trailer. How much gas do you have left?"
"The gas light just came on....its on E...I told you that!!!"
"You are 18 miles from home.....you can make it."
"whatever...fine....see......just forget it....i'll call someone else when I run out of gas!!!"
Wife makes it home, has a buncha cheese Krystals for dinner and doesn't say a word about anything. I ask if the other gas station worked and got the "don't worry about it". I go to the garage...turn the car on....full tank of gas.
I drove by the pump this morning before work and looked at a few and they had a smaller nozzle than normal for some reason....it just looked thinner for some reason. Odd. Couple minutes of Googling and that pretty much confirmed what i had figured out.
