You can't siphon a trucks gas just because it has a blue line flag. Most modern cars have an anti-siphon valve, so that causes issues.

Instead, you locate the fuel tank and drill a small hole in it. That way you can let the fuel collect in a tub or jug. On lifted trucks this is even easier. Drill the hole, pop a large jug under it, perhaps use a small rubber hose or funnel.

Remember to leave them a little note that you've drilled a hole, so they can go get it repaired and not leak fuel everywhere attempting to refill it.

Install a self-tapping valve, then you can drain the next tankfull even easier.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

With this approach it’s best to not leave them a note.

Unethical Life Pro Tips!

Self tappers are great. Don't forget your gasket so they don't notice a drip.

Is that why I couldn't siphon my gas that I needed for a generator after a hurricane? Not only did I fail at what I thought would be an easy task, I got sick and threw up in my 95⁰ house

Pro tip for sucking volatile gases, you can suck air into your mouth and push it out your nose without it going into your lungs. I do that when I clean glass pieces with iso when there's still some vapors present. If you exhale out your nose while you do this you can be extra sure none goes into your lungs. Granted you should also be sure you're actually pulling liquid if you're trying to syphon, but at least you wouldn't be pulling into your lungs.

Just shove tampons down the filler tube or any non fuel liquid

May as well take that cat converter while you're down there, for good luck.

Raw eggs and water in the gas tank takes less work, although you don't get gas out of it.

It also spits in the face of the U.S. flag code 🙄

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 46 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

These fucking chuds would wipe their ass with the flag if they thought it would "own the libs", they don't give a fuck about country or civic duty.

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 37 points 2 years ago

Fake ass patriots can't even display the proper Murikan flag 🇺🇸 smh

Step 1. Poop in a bag.
Step 2. Grab the bag from the bottom and pull it inside out so it's now acting as a poop glove.
Step 3. Shove the poop under their door handle and then use the bag to wipe excess visible poop away.

They might not know it's because of their boot licking but they sure as hell will start thinking about things a little more.

[–] triclops6@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 years ago

You had me at poop in a bag

I heard cars with those decals have too much air in their tires.

Do them a favor and let some out

Put a pebble under the stem cap and tighten it for them.

[–] chemicalprophet@lemm.ee 31 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It also means you can fuck their spouse as long as you don't hit them...

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 34 points 2 years ago

Yeah, hitting the spouse is their job.

Why is this meme written in Cumfont

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

I'd say you know why, but cum on

[–] ruination@discuss.tchncs.de 23 points 2 years ago (7 children)

On a more serious note, though, while I do 100% that the "Thin Blue Line" is pure idiocy, I don't think that actually going out of your way to harass them (even if it is warranted) is in any way effective in convincing them otherwise and having them see reason. Same reasoning as with why many young boys these days fall down the alt-right rabbit hole and become a Tater Tot.

[–] BeardedSingleMalt@kbin.social 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

There is a high chance that someone shoving that thing-blue-line bullshit probably own a gun and are desperately waiting for an excuse to shoot someone for even the most minute reason. And they had said "FAFO" 3 times already that day

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago (6 children)

A counter example is Richard Spencer, the Nazi, getting punched in public twice and then saying in an interview that he's afraid to go out in public. He faded from the limelight soon thereafter.

You also think beating up fascists is "a bad way to make them see reason"? It's entirely not the point. You beat up fascists to make them be afraid of openly being a fascist.

Lol what’s a tater tot?

And by stealing their gas you are probably just reinforcing their stereotypes on crime and what the police response should be.

[–] ruination@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 years ago

A Tater Tot is a mindless follower of some very punchable asshole called Andrew Tate. Also in regards to your second point, while that is true, they will and already do have that stupid stereotype ingrained in their racist minds anyways. Might as well take advantage of it.

Unleaded tastes a little tangy, supreme is pretty sour, and bootlicker gas... tastes pretty good!

That episode of Trailer Park Boys has my all-time favorite scene when Ricky was in court:

[–] Slwh47696@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If I can't smoke and swear, I'm fucked

Also love when he tells Ricky he can smoke, the cops in the courtroom pull their smokes out too

[–] hypnotoad__@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I absolutely love this scene with all my heart

Smokes snaps but I've only got two left

I don't care, you've been a dick to me all day, it's the least you can do

[–] craftyindividual@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Ricky didn't steal your gas, it was "raykins".

If you saw someone stealing from a thin blue line person. No you didn't.

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Well, if Ricky said it...

What's that wannabe USA flag?

[–] cobra89@beehaw.org 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's the "thin blue line" flag, cop apologists essentially.

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses
