Siphon it.
Apparently, some nigger in central Indy thought that this was an appropriate way to compensate for rising gas prices. Not only did he siphon about $15 of gas, he took it from MY FUCKING CAR!!!
First things first, I apologize for using the word nigger. My county is about 87% white, so it was most likely a fellow honky.
I bought $25 worth of gas today before I went to work. That came to about 3/4 a tank. The only driving I did after I bought gas was driving across the street to work. That trip took all of .2 miles, leaving me about 3/4 a tank of gas.
When I got to work, the closest parking spot I could find was about 100 ft. from the front of the store. The parking lot is quite large, as my place of employment is in a strip mall. If I had been paying attention, I could have seen my car from the store where I work, but I obviously wasn't, for I think I would have reacted to seeing some dickhead with a hose and a gas can standing beside my car. There were cars all around mine, but I was the lucky one.
Some time between 5:00pm and 1:00am, some fucker saw that he was low on gas, didn't have the money to pay for it, and decided he was going to take the easy way out. That fucker got about 5 gallons of free gas from my car.
I didn't notice anything wrong when I first left work, but on my way home, I looked at my gas gauge and it was midway between the 1/4 mark and the "E." My first reaction was to think that my gas gauge had broken, for my car is a piece of shit, and the gas gauge was one of the few things that still work. When I arrived home, I looked and saw scratch marks in the paint near the door to the fuel tank.
Shit.
I drove back out to a gas station to put some gas in and see whether or not it would register. Spent $10, and it filled back up to just about 1/2.
Motherfucker!
I understand the desire to siphon gas, I really do. It's becoming difficult for me to afford it, and I'd be lying if I said that I hadn't thought of siphoning gas. What pisses me off most is that my car was parked next to my boss's Infiniti SUV all fucking day. Why the FUCK would you siphon gas from my car? There's a $60,000 vehicle 2 feet away from mine, the fuel tank on that fucking monster is probably 3 times the size of mine, and its owner can probably afford to lose $15 in gas.
I, on the other hand, drive a '97 Escort. The hood is scratched to shit, there are cracks in the front window, and the driver's side door doesn't close all the way, due to the previous owner brilliantly opening the door into oncoming traffic. It has 150k miles on it, and I paid a full $750 for my car. Does it look like I can afford to have gas siphoned from my fucking car?
It's not like I left the fuel tank open. They had to pry open the door to the fuel tank, and one would need to do the same thing to get into the Infiniti's gas tank. It wasn't a matter of convenience.
All I'm saying is that if you're going to siphon gas from someone's car, do it from someone who appears like they can afford it, shitbrick. You ever heard of Robin Hood, bitch? Rob from the rich and give to the poor, and you'll be regarded as a hero. Rob from the poor, as you just have, and you're just a cunt.
Now, I have to invest in a fucking locking gascap because I can't trust society to be decent enough not to steal from a poor motherfucker like me.

He was being a socially responsible thief. You give the impression that your boss' SUV was in showroom condition and that you drive a beater. If he had stolen gas from the SUV, he would've ruined it. Yours was already sratched, dented, and not-properly sealed, so why worry about damage?

Sotty to hear of your misfortune. Thieves don't even care who the
victim is, they just want several gallons of gas for $3.95, the
price of a gas can and six feet of hose.
My piece of shit I drive has a locking gas cap covered by
a locking door. So far it has worked, but it isn't theft-proof.
A desperate guy would get a tub and punch a hole in the bottom
of your gas tank. . . .

Here, have a +2 and feel better.
Your car got hit 'cos the SUV was great cover. I bet your car was parked with your gas cap facing the SUV, right? Maybe your car also shows tank contents whereas the SUV's is probably electronic and shows empty while parked.
We used to siphon gas all the time when we were kids. Fun times.
Damn, you know your shit when it comes to gas thievery. As for your question, no. The gas cap was on the opposite side as the SUV. Facing away from the store, but still on the opposite side. I don't know about the electronic fuel gauge, though, but it is something to ponder.

A passing goat getting thirsty? Hence the scratches as it used it's horns to open the tank.

You sure it didn't evaporate into thin air?
Nah, it's October. It's too cold to evaporate.
