What smells like gas? Gas.
I try not to post personal things here, but am hereby making an exception.
I've spent most of the day installing and configuring various MacPorts packages after a reformat. Suddenly around 5PM I started to smell gasoline in the apartment.
At first I thought maybe the day-old lo mein I'd inhaled hours before was creeping back up, and I was smelling the vapor from my own digestive tract. Hmm, nope, and there it was again. Distinctly gasoline.
I walk into the kitchen to find my roommate "washing out" a gas can. In the kitchen sink. Because it was "stinking up [her] car." Naturally! Naturally...
Oh well, at least the stove wasn't on. Happy Halloween!
