81 billion dollars on gas?

http://www.consumerenergyreport.com/2009/02/27/driver-fills-up-gas-tank-receives-bill-for-86-billion/?jhgf

Some guy bought a fillup of gas and got charged 81 billion dollars by accident.

That'd be, the most ridiculous thing ever. ^_^

haha the moral is pay with cash.

I usually pay for my goods with cash.

lol

I thought it was a little presumptuous as well

something similar happened to me and my mother I think or maybe it was the person in front of us. It was a while, we were at a gas station buying like three or four items and it costs more than 2 million dollars. Although it was corrected, it was pretty funny (to me anyways)

That is funny. I never knew this kind of thing could happen.

Although, I guess it makes sense. I remember one time we went to an ATM Machine, took out 20 bucks but it gave us 40 instead, and then we had to see so tried it again with 10 and it gave us 20, but the balance showed only ten coming out. It was very cool.

isn't that stealing though?

We gave the money back the next day, joykill.

You did?? What's wrong with you?!?

Good for you Quater

81 billion dollars by accident.. xD

Unlike you sick selfish sycho I do not live selfishly.

Although personally I don't consider it stealing.

You don't have to live selfishly to accept a mechanical mistake by an establishment the fucks people over and makes money off of it.

But it doesn't mean the money was mine. I don't believe I was stealing, but it's still not mine.

Besides, banks do not ruin people, people ruin people. If you go to a bank for a loan you know what conditions are there before hand, and if you fail to meet them the bank shouldn't have to lose with you. At the same time, if you leave your money in a bank it'll watch it for you and grow it at admittedly slow savings.

So I hardly say it's an establishment that "fucks people over and makes money off of it". For an establishment along those speeds, try the national Government.

Well, I was going to mention that - but I didn't want it to turn into a rant.

Mention what?

The government. >_>

Oh okay! ^_^

Well, as bad as the Government is, it's only going to get worse till at the best, 2010.

Fun.

I am, personally, looking forward to the worst.

What's fun??

You are are you? Why?

Fun is the American Revolution we'll have to start to fix things and kill hippies!

A couple reasons. 1 - I would very much like to satisfy that inner neanderthal craving of mine to see everyone else as poor as me.
2 - The more important reason is that once we suck so bad that mexico beats us in the international standings, the only way we can go is up. ^^

Both of your reasons are really crappy.

And the first reason is quite shameful. Seriously.

The only solace I can take from that is you may be joking.

I have yet to concrete a better reason.

It is.

or we can all live in the best country in the world, not america but rather Your friends here at awesomeland
