Internet as an art

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.

Um. Doesn’t petrol eat through plastic eventually?

Polystyrene? Yes. That bucket is probably HDPE or something like that though which wouldn’t react to gas. Most modern car gas tanks are some form of high density plastic.

Ok thanks. So not any kind of plastic.

Yeah, I was surprised the first time I saw a plastic gas tank (it was on the ground outside an auto repair shop). I just assumed they were usually made out of metal.
