That it's so expensive.
Twenty years ago when these particular Lego were made it was like $1.25 to $1.50 per gallon.
It's missing the additional 9/10s of a cent though which is annoying in real life because you have to round up to get the real price.
Theyβre probably European prices, either in euros or even in pre-euro funny money.
Gotta pre euro money. As fuel pumps in Europe work in litres.
Oh it's a gas price sign. I thought it was supposed to be a clock or a timer.
Look where lego originates from.
Why the hell should I round up? Let me just cut up a penny to give them nine-tenths of it.
The Secret Service would like to know your location
I misinterpreted what you meant by per gallon, here I was wishing for $1.50 for a gallon of Legos
It hit over $5/gal a while back where I live. Gotta love a good late-stage capitalist dystopian life. <3
EDIT: It's about $4.80/gal on average rn. Take me back to inflated LEGO gas prices, please. π
Yeah, where I live it's been between 4.09 and 5.50 for awhile now.
Cries in β¬2.15 per liter
Don't worry, that will be what people wish they could go back to before long.
