Today, I was so engrossed in a phone call that I drove off without pumping gas after I'd prepaid $50. FML

You deserve it for being a moron. Maybe had you not been talking on the phone right next to the sign that all gas pumps have telling you to not use your phone, and also not talking on the phone while driving then perhaps you wouldn't have wasted the money.

you'd really be saying fml if you were so engrossed in your phone call that you forgot to pay attention to the road, which you probably did but were just lucky. hang up and drive. hang up and pump. 20 years ago people did just fine waiting until they were in a building to use a phone. you deserved it maybe now you won't risk the lives of other motorists.

This happened to me the other day. I drove back so fast and luckily no one was at my pump :)

WTF & WTH op, YDI! You're NOT supposed to talk on your cell phone any more than you're supposed to smoke a cigarette while pumping gas....you put your life, others' lives @ risk of dying from a fiery explosion...the (microwave) signals that travel to & from your phone can cause a static electricity buildup...that tiny charge is all it would take to set you & everything else on fire (possibly cause your fuel tank to explode )...people like you should either A: never be allowed to breed or B: get arrested on the spot for public endangerment. Just be thankful that $50 is ALL you lost & not your life or been in ICU with 3rd degree burns covering 90% of your body!

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I have NEVER heard of this happening so I decided to look into it. According to Snopes it's just a myth and has never actually happened.

You shouldn't talk on your phone when you're driving anyway :P

Haha.. By the way thank you for the free gas.

As the next driver in line thanked God for stupid people:)

Look at the bright side, u probably won't do it again, EVER!!!
