Please stop bitching about fucking gas prices, USD$3/Gallon is fucking cheap. When you have to pay USD$8/Gallon like most of Europe, then you can complain.

And the same goes for milk.

When I read your post $8 a gallon sounded horribly wrong. So I searched a little..

Not tryin to get into an arguement but

Please stop bitching about fucking gas prices you think you have
That site isn't very accurate. I don't know anyone that lives in Teeside, Reading, Norwich or the other place it said.

Gas prices most certainly can be the equivalent of $8 a gallon in Birmingham, London or any other major city.

Hell, when I told my father-in-law (in Portland, OR), that a 20 pack of cigarettes costs over $11 here, he freaked. LOL.

Not inaccurate in the facts it gives.

It is inaccurate in the sense that the places it lists in the UK do not give an accurate view of gas prices across the UK in general.

Like I said, I don't know anyone that lives in those places listed. They are small and insignificant places. The prices in the major cities such as Manchester, Birmingham and London are higher.

We drive just as often as Americans... If you live in an equivilent city....

I, living in London, drive just as much as someone who lives in New York.... And I pay more than $8 a gallon... Depends on your fuel type......

Americans money goes a whole fucking lot further... I lived like a King in NYC... Eating at Michelin Star restaurants for the price of a Harvester (shit, cheap, family restaurant)

People in New York don't drive as much relative to other cities in the U.S.

L.A. would be a better example.
You can't fool me, ol' boy.

Pittsey, London is the most expensive city in the world, aside from Moscow, I think. It's ridiculous how expensive the cost of living is in London. However, that's why you get the check that you do for the line of work that you do. In New York, you'd be paid less for what you do, I'd bet.
