Do you all ever have the urge to splurg when you shouldn't, or end up wasting gas once you buy it?

I drive a lot (hence use gas), but then again I have a good reason to.

I always have the intention to drive sparingly after tanking up and paying lots of money, but after a while the lunatic takes over and I drive like a maniac again.

Where exactly does "Big Brother" tie into this topic..?

I love driving around and I would say I blow most of my money on paying for gas. I only get 17MPG City though so..damn lol.

No.

I don't buy shit, and drive as little as possible.

I'd like to hear more thoughts on this.

Neither do it...I tend to leave he "shit buyin'" to farmers who use the fertilizer.

It's a lot cheaper there than it is here.

So...what does "Big Brother" have to do with this? Is Big Brother sending out subliminal messages that are telling us to waste gas except he's only targeting white people and not minorities?

I assumed she meant something Orwellian in nature... but now that you mention it, she may well mean the "TV series", it's Czarina after all.

Well, in Nineteen Eighty Four, rations are controlled, often completely stopped at the order of the party. So, I think the message behind it, would be that the government are taking control of necessary resources, with very little question from the consensus.

But then, Czarina's a mentalist, so she may literally be talking about her elder sibling.

EDIT: It's pretty much already been said..

What's that Skip? A boy has fallen down a mineshaft and suffered a hairline fracture of the tibia? Left tibia?

S-skippy said that?

I'm afraid so, the poor mite's taken to being rather cryptic.
