I've been using a debit card since the Dubya administration and I have never had someone use my card after I ate at a restaurant. I assume you live in a big metro area?
- pixl97 9mo agoIn Texas about a decade ago there was a criminal enterprise out of Houston that was putting swimmers on gas station pumps all over the state. Little towns, big towns, country gas stations. My now wife got hit that way.
- happyopossum 9mo agoSwimming at a gas station pump would be uncomfortably lethal.
- dghlsakjg 9mo agoI wonder how well you would have to be able to swim to overcome the density/buoyancy difference if swimming in a pool of gasoline?
- swiftcoder 9mo agoIt's a pretty drastic density difference. I think an Olympic swimmer would have a hard time staying above the surface.
- rationalist 9mo agoIt depends how long you can hold your breath. I imagine many people would be overwhelmed by the fumes before they got very far.
- bregma 9mo agoGasoline fight!
- pixl97 9mo agoAh, 12 hours later I log back in to see skimmers got autocorrected to swimmers.
- kstrauser 9mo agoI am, but some of these events were when I was traveling through smaller Midwest towns. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to it. In any case, it hasn't happened again since I started using tap to pay whenever possible.
