this is the thread where you can share your thoughts n' anecdotes about pumping gas in kentucky.

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:41 (fifteen years ago)

i've done it a few times, driving through the state. seemed pretty straightforward enough

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:42 (fifteen years ago)

maybe i'm differently abled because iirc pumping gas was a huge ordeal

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:43 (fifteen years ago)

either that or yr a homosexual

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:43 (fifteen years ago)

or maybe yr secretly british

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:43 (fifteen years ago)

you could have rabies

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:44 (fifteen years ago)

scrofula?

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:44 (fifteen years ago)

i think i am inbred

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:44 (fifteen years ago)

could you explain ~~in detail~~ what happened

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:44 (fifteen years ago)

the only time i pumped gas in kentucky, it was snowing

my ex gf lived near this huge gas station in downtown Louisville with this big beautiful canopy over it

Mr. Que, Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:48 (fifteen years ago)

Drove past the Jefferson Davis memorial once. Didn't stop.

i don't feel like describing. i feel stupid enough already.

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:52 (fifteen years ago)

alright, mr. que. 2005 i was driving through the bluegrass state and i needed some gas. i stopped at one place and the pump wouldn't work and it was crowded (near an exit) so i decided to try a different one instead of holding up the line at this one. i went to another one that was not a sunoco or anything, like a tiny gas station, and it did the same thing so the guy on the other side of the pump was like "here!" and pulled the hose and it started working. except i had already pumped a tiny bit and made the meter stop so i had to go ask the counter guy and he thought i was dumb, probably.

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:55 (fifteen years ago)

that's why i hate kentucky. i think this was in williamstown, kentucky. or something else that began with "williams-"

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:57 (fifteen years ago)

now that i think about it it seems so trivial

steamed hams (harbl), Sunday, 4 October 2009 16:59 (fifteen years ago)

i have driven through kentucky exactly twice - on the way to and from cincinnati. i don't remember anything gassy about the trip.

I grew up in Kentucky and have had plenty of experience with gas stations of all sorts in the bluegrass state. I once scandalized my bandmates by purchasing and eating a bucket of fried chicken livers from a gas station in Kentucky. They were salty, greasy and delicious! Close to Tewligan's Tavern, the Bardstown road SuperAmerica in Louisville was a frequent disaffected youth hangout area.

Mr. Que, Monday, 5 October 2009 00:46 (fifteen years ago)

the mom that works at the gas station down the street (corner of main & ashland) has called me mick, nate, neil, mike, pretty much every one syllable name that sounds even vaguely like nick but has never called me nick.
