Duh; too stupid to drive diesel
Hello Everyone
I made a fuel stop, filling my tank. Ugly/nasty personality pulls up to the other side of the diesel pump, hops out shrieking and cursing at her two kids in the back (elementary school age), pops the diesel pump in the tank of her 7 series BMW (V12 gasser) and locks the flow on while she beats on the window and screams curses at the kids. I was sorely tempted to drive away; but Good Sam stuck my foot in the grinder. I walked around the fuel island and waved for her attention; without interrupting her cursing, she flies the bird at me. I walk closer and attempt to gain her attention again; she stuck her hand in her bag and comes out with mace, says "Leave me the F*** alone A**hole", enough is enough. I got in my car and drove from the pump to the store, walked in and asked the clerk to kill her pump and explained why, the clerk did kill the pump at 10 gallons of diesel, and attempted to explain over the intercom what the problem was, the lady did not listen, climbed in the car, started it, twisted around screaming at the kids and stomped on the accelerator in the process, she stayed in this position for roughly four-five minutes with the engine cranking 5-7K the whole time. I got a coffee and was paying for it just as she let off the throttle. The clerk said OMG and I looked up to see clouds of smoke in the car. The lady rolled the windows down, and drove off through a large puddle, giant steam cloud when car hit the water. I left the fuel station, passed the lady 1/2 mile later; going 5 MPH and attempting to keep it going, cloud from under car, in car and under hood. I did try to warn the lady, the clerk tried to warn the lady, you would think that smoke clouds filling the car would warn her that something was wrong! "WRONG", Duh; too stupid to drive diesel.
