    Some Oregon residents fear it's too "hazardous" and may cause them to smell like gasoline.https://usat.ly/2ENJBZ0

        If you can't pump gas you shouldn't be driving a car which is much more complex

        Almost perfect Twitter handle. You left the "ton" off of the end though.

        I'm from Oregon. This accurately describes the kind of paranoia some Oregon residents have. It's silly stuff, but true.

        Oh, come on, Oregonians. Ohioans pump their own gas every day and there's nothing to it. Just accept it, already.

        I honestly think all other 49 states pump their own gas so it makes this all the more funny.

        Folks in Jersey don't pump their own gas. An attendant has to wait in you.

        Hey Oregon... for a nominal fee, I will swing by and show you how to pump. For an extra nominal fee... will cover other topics like microwaving food, changing light bulbs, recording one show and watching another and snow shoveling.

        It’s Oregon. It’s usually nothing but hipsters and millennials but I do see a lot of baby boomers complaining too, so likely it’s just a bunch of entitled people.

        @BrianManzullo you took reactions from a few dumbasses on Facebook and let them be the elected voice of the entire state. I know it’s meant to be funny but most Oregonians don’t give two 💩
