Cracked me up. It's one of those epic threads because you're reading it thinking there's no way someone is that clueless, but the more they post, you really start to believe it's possible he's actually done it. I'm still not sure. :-)

Wow...67 pages in 2 days. He may just have to leave the internets for good. He should just call it a joke either way.

Haha that is so funny. No way to tell if he's serious, but even if it's just a joke...he made 68 pages happen!

I love how it's link is in the off-topic section of every auto-related forum on the internet.

That was the funniest thread I have seen thus far on the net! Even if it was epic troll or fail...it was still EPIC! If it is true then that guy is a sucker for marketing schemes lol. I guess common sense isn't as common anymore.

Epic Fail

Gixxer Guy Messes Up Bad

This might be the biggest F' up ever. Glad it wasn't one of us because it has gotten so out of control that the gixxer server was overloaded and when i searched NOS on google earlier, it came up as the second hit. Very funny though. Page two says it all.

We had a fuel truck screw up here and everybody who used a certain pump got a mix of diesel and gasoline. There sure were a bunch of stalled out cars close to the gas station.

Not yet, he has to wait until Tuesday to get a new fuel filter. Sounds like he has fouled the injectors. He has replaced the spark plugs.

Youch! I wonder who foots the bill for fixing this, the station or the fuel truck?

Same here. It seems like he may have actually done it, but I'm not too sure either.
