This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Our gas pumps dont charge until the pump is stopped. The prepay is a ping on your account that basically reserves the funds after checking you have them, and then it let's you pump, and only withdraws what you use.
