A lot of people commented on how stupid this boycott is but no one posted (or realized) the extent on how stupid and worthless this idea really is.
I posted the following in my blog last week:
Only morons will be boycotting gas on May 15th. Yes if you think boycotting gas is going to cost the oil companies billions you are an idiot. If I get one more of these emails I am going to start shooting people. How can so many of you be so dumb. Lets step back into reality for a few minutes and really look at this.
The email says ” Boycott gas, average cost to fill up is $30 - $50 If everyone doesn’t pump gas on May 15th we will cost the oil companies 3 Billion dollars”.
What you morons fail to understand is that the only thing you people will accomplish is making yourselves look stupid. So you wont fill up on May 15th, so that means you will top off the tank on May 14th, or wait till the 16th to fill up, right? Surely you wont be staying home from work or school that day. You are not boycotting driving your car, are you ?
Think about it. You are not driving any less, ie. BURNING GAS. So how are you causing them to lose 3 Billion dollars if you burning the same amount of Gas???? So who cares if you fill up on May 14th, May 15th , or May 16th, at the end of the week you spent the same on gas and they made the same amount of profit.
Now if you really want to hit them in the pocket book, do a boycott driving day. That will actually cost them money, they can’t get that day back. But simply burning the same amount of gas and filling up on a different day costs them NOTHING,ZERO!
Now stop reading (and sending) stupid ass chain emails and if you want to do something about this shit, drive less.
