Do not be this person (gas hoarders)

[Demovictory9]

Anxious motorists in more than a dozen states across the southeast are now lining up for gas, with many trying to hoard whatever remains left in the pump.

Photos shared to social media show some filling up buckets and giant barrels under the cover of darkness, angering those behind them who had been waiting for hours to fill up their own vehicles.

1. I do not wish injury upon anyone, but other than that I hope they all get a comeuppance of some sort

Financial loss, property damage, inconvenience, whatever... I hope their stupidity and selfishness extracts a price.

2. There's a picture floating around...

...showing some of those clear industrial-sized trash bags with gasoline in them and tied off, in somebody's trunk.

Think "carnival goldfish", but with about 10 gallons of gasoline instead.

Good luck getting that out of the trunk... or into your gas tank.

8. Holy shit!

The next step is for some fool to fill their plastic bed liner straightaway, sans containers.

9. Yea. turns out that one was from several years ago

fooled me too.

19. It's an old picture

Not related to the pipeline shutdown (per Snopes).

Still stupid, though!

20. Thanks for the updated/correction

Sadly, it's not a fake, but it's also not related to current events.

5. First there were maskholes. Now we...

...have gasholes.

[Notek]

7. Haha

"Gasholes", I love it!

[JI7]

13. they are the same people

[3catwoman3]

16. I'm not much of a gambler, but I'd...

...unhesitatingly lay down a few bucks on that. Vaxx-holes, too, no doubt.

6. All these people remind me of this episode . But that was comedy fiction not real life ! 🙄

[GemDigger]

10. Now they just have to worry about where they are going to store it.

In the garage? Outside on the shady side of the house? Keep it in the hot trunk?

11. A lot of those are illegal here in Idaho. You can only use a certified gas can. Station attendants

and anyone in line should have been calling the cops. I would think the same regs apply to other states. If freakin' Idaho has them.

[jmowreader]

14. Idaho USED to have a lot of really progressive legislators

Idaho was the very first state in the nation to require drivers carry proof of insurance.

[Raine]

12. Selfish self-centered greedy people

really ugly and sickening.

[Fullduplexxx]

15. Gassholes

Dang someone beat me to it

17. Put a cap on purchases at 10 gallons per vehicle per day

[SYFROYH]

18. One of the bigger filling stations in SE GA has limited gas purchases to $50.

I was impressed by the CEOs foresight.
