A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Really what you do is fill up the gas can first, and hope the next guy using the car deals with the consequences.
If you're serious, I would assume that it's not that hard to red-flag cases where fuel mileage drops after you have used the vehicle, as well as before. After it's happened a couple of times, should be able to identify the cause.
