"Out of petrol !!? That is SO 1960's "
"I'm telling you it's YOUR turn to go fill it!"
"I TOLD you last week it was empty"
"I knew there was a reason I didn't like yellow cars!"
"E "stands for Enough...........Yeah Right!
I told you wind power doesn't work with everything, you should have put petrol in the car.
"I did fill it. It must have evaporated"
It actually worked, we're not going to make it for dinner with her parents.
Just typical of you. You always forget.
This relationship is going nowhere fast.
Walk, walk walking to Missouri
Love flies out of the bonnet when there's no gas and you are stranded!
Petrol is useless when the car runs on CNG - even a girl knows that!
"I told you the car wouldn't run on beer!!"
"No honey the ban on using mobile phones while driving doesn't extend to bringing your phone with you!"
"Well, that's the last time wifey uses the car ----- she always leaves it empty!!!"
"Ummm, mine are designer jandals - not for walking!"
Typical male.......!!!
His comment in thought bubble "PLEASE GOD, JUST FILL IT UP WITH PETROL!" her comment in thought bubble " Some first date?!"
How long did you say it would take your Mother to arrive?
"I should have listened to Mum, he really is a loser"
oh hum typical?????????????/
"Turn the other way honey, i need to 'go'
For goodness sake how long is he going to look at it before he decides what to do with it, de ja vu...
Tell me what is the point of having an empty can in the car when we need petrol!!!
Sorry Honey, I knew I shouldn't have gone out with the boys last night
I can assure you the can is not going to fill by itself, even giving it the evil eye won't work.
Should I tell him the petrol cap's at the REAR of the car.
If something doesn't come passed soon I'm going to have to use it.
Time to cool off. You only have to wait 20 minutes for the radiator to call down. I'm sorry I forgot to have the car serviced before we left.
E is for '"ENOUGH" and F is for "------ALL" right???
Weeelll! it was full the last time I used it !!
I thought Mum was just kidding when she said boys always use the excuse that they have run out of gas.
Is that bee hives I see over there??? Maybe we could fill up with bee pee!
I assumed that when I wanted to powder my nose at the petrol station, you would have filled up the car... duhh
"I told you we should have bought a more economical car, but no, you had to look cool."
"I think the gas goes in the hole at the other end of this heap of junk".
And you told me eloping was the simple way...
I suppose a shag is out of the question...
What goes faster,Speedo or Fuelgauge? Give you one guess.
No amount of grovelling on my knees is going to work this time!
Darling, I'll let you drive.
Well my Dad told me that line worked for him. Girls must be getting smarter these days.
Take a hike
You put gas in the radiator?
My father WILL NOT believe you!
So...Got any bright ideas.
Andrew releasing that it was over was still determined to prove that he was caring man that knew about saving the environment!
No! Its your car, YOU fill it.
Nigel realised his cunning plan had a bit of a flaw....
by Belladonna
See .... I told you it wasn't the Camaro from Transformers!
Now I know exactly my mother meant by saying I would carry the can for the choices of men I made in my life!
I'm not your Mother - I don't do reminders!
Who said men could multi task
Mum just won't believe me!
Now you know why the woman is always right.
That tin is just like you.Full of hot air."
Happy Days
I told you that petrol doesnt go in the cap under the hood but ya just wouldnt listen. Did your not read your manual on earthlings?? men are supposed to know about these things
So!!!!! Where's your mobile phone when you need it?
Uhm that nozzle bit must go into one of those holes - I wonder if she knows which one, do I ask?
You never told me it needed diesel!
I knew you are a Greenie but this is taking things too far.
I went on my knees for forgiveness and now I've got holes in my jeans
Who said holidays were fun !!!!
Now what?
Is that all you've got to spout about?
Get back on your knees and keep praying
We'd have arrived hours ago if you hadnt been too proud to ask for directions
by Buggz
What did I tell you???? But you never have your ears on!!!!
Why are we waiting??
ok y didnt u full it up? let me guess the fuel gage is doge and it said it was full of fuel when it wasnt
She "Stop griping. I put the can in didn't I?"
He "but you didn't notice it was empty, D'oh!"
"And another thing. Shouldn't we be on that other road, over there?"
You can sit there, I'm catching that horse in the paddock and riding out of here, partner!
No not the radiator.
If we dont get home before Shorty Street you are in big trouble. No, we are not watching Top Gear. They are the reason we ran out of petrol.
I knew it.........you should not have used that petrol in the flamin' motorbike !!!!!
Where are "Those boots that are meant for walking"
When i get home, i hope Mum patchs my jeans.
You brought a condom, I meant bring spare petrol !
Now how about we fill in the time with some loving fun
And we're no where near MacDonalds
Sorry gal it's heads & the deal was - tails I go & heads you stay, right. Oh nooooo!
This relationship's in the can
Males - they always try something to get a girl to do the work
So I guess a second date is out of the question..?
'Now if I was allowed to drive YOUR! car in the 1st place i would have at least made sure it had petrol in it but what do i know i'm only a woman".
I think my leg would work better than yours
That's typical - we walk 20k to the nearest petrol station and somebody's nabbed the engine!
I can't believe he thought the 'ol "gee, I can't belive we ran out of gas" gambit was going to work on me!
Bugga No cell phone coverage
Now I no why they call you Petrol head - is that where you keep it
I'm sure she'll start talking to me again when we finally get there and she realises I forgot to put her bag in the car.
Take a hike!
See i told you the story about the genie in the can was a lot of rubbish!
After two days on the road... Sarah and Adam were feeling a little miffed
Beema? No frowner.
at least the windmill still goes
Don't look at me . . . I wasn't driving . . .
