:lol You own a diesel car.

Seriously, I'm sure most of us have done something similar.  Luckily the last time I did it, it was to a hire car...

in america, we're taught that diesel is made from the blood of unborn children

which is why you don't see too many American passenger cars with diesel engines

I always freak out when I'm at the pump, I triple check it.

Funny thing is, this was my first time ever putting in gas...(just have my temporary driver's license) For some odd reason I thought the two hoses connected to the pump were the same, but diesel was right and the regular (with some weird name) left...thought it was the company's branded diesel. First and last time this'll happen to me.
