They probably overshake at the urinal as well.
Are those extra two drops really gonna matter? I've been there when all you have is a dollar and 23 pennies for gas, but if there's a line behind you, move it dude.

What's the rule? Any more than two shakes and you're playing with it?
Actually it does matter to get all the dripping out gas you can. Otherwise it will just be wasted (evaporation). Sometimes you can get a little extra lifting up the tube too.
Considering that a car runs on fumes, 2 drops won't make a difference. But lifting up the hose does work though.
This sounds like a Seinfeld episode.![]()
Drive A Combine! Alternative Fuels Rule!!!!!
I find if I add a pint of the good stuff to my tank, it thins out the mix, and gives me an extra 25 miles to the tank full. Speaking of tank I havent seen by scotch drinking friend here lately. Is anyone aquainted with him?

You know, I wish Napster or Yahoo would add something from teh Beatle catalog to their music. I know they can't due to legalities, but all of my Beatles albums are majorly scratched up. I guess its tim eto re-purchase everything.
Why go back to the same old thing? Why not try some catipillars, or perhaps a nice walking stick. Yes that would be bloody good!
i always shake the crap out of my car to get all the air out of the tank. it makes a difference.
Over your entire life of driving it might. That's like 40,000 drops or maybe a few gallonz.
Let's put it this way. If your putting in gas and you pull out the thing and it drips on the ground YOUR IN TO MUCH OF A ING HURRY, slow the down and do it right.
I shake the pump just so i don't get any gas on the outside of the gas door not to get those extra drops. I hate when it runs down the side of my paintjob.
I stop at the click.
Yea it can ruin paint. It will eat the clear coat 1st.
There is some nasty stuff in Gasoline...
I remember there was a guy that would sniff gas in a little pimento can on the bus everyday lol.
He was totally high on it.
That doesn't sound very healthy.
Oh you know you do it whenever a car drives by.
I'd imagine I'd be guilty of this ... although I've never actually counted. My only reason for doing so is so that no gas splatters down on my naked, sandaled toes.

I do it cause I wanna.
If your in that much of a hurry, then look at ye old priorities.
I have a similar analogy as to why I only can put the pump nozzle half-way down the tank opening.
"I do it cause I wanna". That sounds like an pre-Hollywood-makeover Avril lyric.
I'll tell you one of my priorities. Not standing at the gas pump shaking the nozzle a ridiculous amount of times.
But man, getting gas on the flip flops is a pain in the ass.
I hold mine with the right hand and shake with the left hand...
feels different.....
What was that saying, "No matter how much you shake or dance, the last few drops end up in the pants"? Or something like that.
My point is, with gas pumps, the shaking DOES make a difference. And to be honest, I'd rather not catch the last few drops in my pants, or car, if I can avoid it.
if anyone complains behind me, I'll leave the pump on and spray their car "Zoolander" style.![]()
That's easily one of the funniest moments on film in the past 10 years.![]()
