         @minti there's some kind of fuel shortage here. People are very very mad. Some guy just threatened me for not letting him go ahead of me.

            @ceruleanspark Oh wow.. I'd have a very few not so work-safe words for him.

            @ceruleanspark *sigh* Should I start armor plating my stuff and hording the last scraps of gas?

            @ceruleanspark That sounds serious. Do you know the political details on the shortage? (if any)

                     @ponydude The short version is that the delivery drivers were contemplating strike action for...some reason, and the press whipped everyone into a frenzy about how there was going to be NO PETROL OMGZ. So now everyone is super mad. I had no idea about this until just now when I tried to just...buy my regular amount of fuel for my trip this weekend.

                        @ceruleanspark Unions xP. That's better than what it could have been though. Was worried it could have been something that would have grown into an international problem.

            @ceruleanspark Since you probably couldn't get a gun in the UK, get a bow.
