Safety First!....It was time to get the John Deere lawn tractor going so I went to get the gas can out to refuel but it looked pretty dirty on the bottom and the big spider living in there didn’t seem to appreciate that I opened the top so I decided to go buy a new gas can and fuel for the summer so I went to the Depot and bought a very expensive twenty dollar 5 gallon plastic can and then drove another 11 miles to get ethanol free gas.....After reading three pages of instructions I finally managed to get the top off the stupid thing and found even more instructions inside the can but was able to fill it and went back home thinking all was good....
Hauled the high dollar gas can to the shed where I unfortunately figured out it might take 3 hands to get this fokin can to pour because you have to flip a lever with your thumb and at the same time try and press forward on a GD safety valve thing to get the gas to come out which might have worked ok except the SOB evil genius who designed this POS didn’t think to put a handle on the back to hang onto so you have to try and hit the small tank opening while holding down the #@*$&# safety lever while simultaneously trying to hold a heavy 5 gallon can between your legs which the end result of was me pouring a quart and half of gasoline down my right leg, drenching my new pair of sneakers and jeans not to mention turning my shed into an explosive bomb.....
I’m hoping the hair grows back on my right leg by the end of summer but at least I’m feeling a lot fokin safer now........
