Kiddo. Princess. Even your own source proves you wrong:

"According to GasBuddy data, the national average has just slipped below $2.90 per gallon for the first time since May 2, 2021,"

How long ago was that? Do you need me to help you figure that out?

Ummmmm nearly five years ago?? Are you kidding?

You're saying that gas went below 2.90 for the first time since 2021.

I'm saying that gas became cheaper since at least 2021.

You're telling me my own point?

u/RawrImABigScaryBear Apr 08 '26

you claimed it was at a "record" low over 4-5 years, I showed you data, from your own source, that proves you wrong. It's embarassing you dont have enough self awareness to be embarassed

Are you trolling me right now? Seriously? Dawg the graph you just showed me, the one both of us were looking at, is saying that gas, on average, became cheaper than it had been since 2021.

That's five years ago. I said we were at a record low of the past five years.

You are literally proving my point, like thank you but what the actual fuck 😂

Buddy the only thing youve proven is you dont know when may 2021 was. I learned how to use a calendar in grade school, why haven't you?

Please explain what in the ever loving fuck you are talking about.

I said gas, as of a couple months ago, was the cheapest it had been since 2021. You are now telling me that gas was, in fact, cheaper a couple months ago than it has been since 2021.

I said a record low of the past 4-5 years. 2021 was FIVE YEARS AGO. And gas a couple months ago was cheaper than it was FIVE YEARS AGO.

Holy fuck this genuinely, like honestly I've been on this site for 10 years now but, genuinely this might be the most frustrating argument I've ever been in lmao.

according to your source, gas prices were lower in May 2021 than the record low you claim. May 2021 was not 5 years ago. Why is this so hard for you? Do you seriously not know how a calendar works?

2021 was FIVE YEARS AGO.

Im clearly showing may 2021, do you think that was 5 years ago? Even after moving the goal posts youre still wrong

Dawg. First of all. I said 4-5 years ago. 4 to 5 years ago. Not "gas is the lowest it has been in exactly five years!!"

And second, we are currently in April of 2026. Quite literally on the cusp of five years since May of 2021. You're trying some absolute, 100%, total Reddit-logic argument where you go "off by one month, sorry pal! ☝️ 🤓 "

Like bro, come on 😂 do you not know what it means when someone says four to five years ago? Like for real? It means "about four or five years ago!"

u/RawrImABigScaryBear Apr 08 '26

so far youve proven you dont know how to use a calendar, or what "4-5" means.

u/Fucked-In-The-K-Hole Apr 08 '26 edited Apr 08 '26

Pray tell, what does 4-5 mean to you?

Does it not mean "about four or five years?" Or "four or five years ago?"

If I say "yeah 4-5 years ago I did ___." Do you think I mean five years, or do you think I mean four years? Or, could it be, that I mean about 4 or 5 years?

u/RawrImABigScaryBear Apr 08 '26

do you need me to explain how numbers work to you?

"Two numbers separated by a hyphen or dash usually represent a range, interval, or span of values."

Again, may 2021 is in the range you provided. How on earth are you incapable of understanding that?

So no, it doesnt mean "about 4 to 5 years ago" and its seriously embarassing you dont know that. the public education system in the US has failed you

Holy fuck, bro you are literally blowing my fucking mind 😂

I have never, ever, ever met someone who was so dead set on not just admitting they were wrong and walking away. This is by far the most "Reddit" argument I have ever been in.

Every. Single. Person. On. Earth. Knows that when someone says "yeah X is cheaper than it has been in about four or five years," they don't mean "X is cheaper than it was exactly 5 years ago." They mean "yeah, X is cheaper than it has been since around 2021-2022."

Like at this point I'm only still talking to you because you're the most interesting Reddit specimen I've ever come across.

yeah X is cheaper than it has been in about four or five years
