Petrol prices on the rise again

System

Half my drive to work is dual carriageway and I cruise along at a petrol-conserving 55mph. How many cars do you think I see belt along past me and cut me up at 70+ mph? They will be filling their tanks more than me!

Yes, I'm continually making stuff up all the time after time after time. Or perhaps it's a different Graham_Devon who constantly posts a new thread every time we have movement in the petrol price....

I got bored and gave up half way through the search. Perhaps you'll remember this when you start throwing the 'liar' accusations around. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

You are looking a little bit Graham Devon obsessed there friend.

I think you could probably argue that not only are petrol prices not coming down any time soon in Europe, but in all probability we are artificially subsidising cheap petrol prices in the US. The US being a more important market for the oil barons than Europe, for a number of political and economic reasons.

I bet those oil barons are boomers

They are worse than boomers, they are neo-liberals.

Would it help if I asked you what you think neo-liberalism is and then I can explain to you why you are wrong.

Not sure if this adds anything to the thread, but heard on the radio yesterday that Petrol engines are now cheaper to run than Diesel due to recent efficiency improvements, the continued higher cost of diesel cars and the higher diesel fuel prices..

I think they said you'd have to be be doing 15 or 20k a year before diesel proved cheaper??

Oh my lordie. You've even edited my response and then decided to quote your own edit!!

I really am lost for words as to how pathetic you have become with all of this!

Are you seriously trying to prove you don't make things up, but making up what you have quoted and pretending that's what I was responding to? I mean, seriously!?

Erm, the quote you did of mine was edited. You missed the bottom paragraph off and the caveat at the bottom, so I'm not really sure what your point is. Everyone edits the salient point of re-posts.

Are you really trying to distract the discussion away from your constant moaning in this clumsy manner? I mean, seriously? :rotfl:

So getting back to our discussion. Are you saying that I was wrong and you don't post every time there is a movement in the petrol price? Are you saying that you don't come up with a million excuses of why you can't do anything to fix the issues in your life that you constantly moan about on here (such as your long commute and petrol prices)?

Are you really? :cool:

I think its time for Ruggedtoast's "HAMISH _MCTAVISH Multiple Choice Test".

1)

Is HAMISH_MCTAVISH a satisfied home-owner with several properties predominantly because:

A) His incredible business acumen and drive to succeed saw him overcome all odds to achieve pecuniary advantage against a background of privation, poor schooling, and stunted opportunity.

After enjoying a privileged middle class public school background with all the advantages that affords he found himself in adulthood still unable to afford a house, so got his mum to buy him one as a wedding present.

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????



2) After having received this ladleful of good fortune does HAMISH_MCTAVISH:

A) Recognise the privileged start in life he has had, and reflect with humility and hubris that "there but for the grace of God go I" when hearing of the plight of those less fortunate

Persist in some bizarre fantasy that he's a self made Aberdonian Alan Sugar who has had the same opportunities as everyone else less fortunate than he, whom he then reserves nothing but scorn and derision for despite having no right whatsoever to look down on them.

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

3) Considering the considerable life advantages HAMISH_MCTAVISH has been afforded, correlated with how judgemental he is of others, is his current station in life as landlord to two tenants and some mysterious job he won't ever define:

A) About right
A bit disappointing really

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Answers on a postcard please.

I'd forgotten I'd written that. I was quite proud of that post at the time.

Still, finding it from God know's when and posting it here, along with all the Graham stalking isn't really helping your case.


I am starting to think you are compiling dossiers on people.
