Grown Woman Just Learns She’s Been Pumping Gas The Wrong Way

A grown woman just learned she's been pumping gas the wrong way. This is incredibly disappointing to see.

By the time you're an adult, there are certain things that you should definitely know how to do. You should know how to pay your bills, take care of your property, clean, and how to pump gas. You've been doing it since you were at least 16 years-old, so there's really no excuse. However, there's always someone out there who's a few steps behind. This 34-year-old TikToker seems to be one of them. She finally learned she was pumping gas the wrong way at the age of 34. Better late than never I suppose, but I doubt she's the only one out there who doesn't realize they've been pumping gas the wrong way.

Look, I'm sure there's something we're all doing wrong and don't know about it. It happens. However, we don't typically find out or flaunt it in such a public way. Unfortunately, that's what this TikToker is now going through. She recently learned she's been pumping gas wrong this whole time and never realized there was a clip that holds the gas pump handle down for you while you pump so you don't have to hold on that whole time. It's very functional and incredibly helpful. That is unless you don't know about it. Check out the viral video shared by @k8steiner below.

On one hand, it's incredibly embarrassing for her. On the other, she's getting some clicks for it! That's what the internet is all about, right? That's why she has a TikTok account and now it's all paying off. It would probably be preferred for it not to be embarrassing content, but she's going viral now regardless. Probably not the way she saw her 15 minutes of fame going, but you don't always get what you want.

Did you know about this clip to help you out while pumping gas or are you just now figuring it out too? It's very helpful especially in the cold weather so you can get your hands back in your coat or keep them snug inside your gloves. Some of us find out later than others and I'm just happy she learned about this before the weather starts to get very cold. Everyone has some thing that they do that probably isn't right, you just hope not to have yours go viral online.

'Tis the season for Christmas movies, but what makes a Christmas movie a "Christmas movie?" Does it have to take place on Christmas? Must Christmas be the primary theme? Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

It's a question that seems to be as old as the holiday itself. Everyone has an opinion, and we could be closer to an answer than ever before.

In determining what makes a Christmas movie a "Christmas movie," Yahoo! UK came up with a two-question litmus test. To try to determine if a movie is indeed a Christmas movie, they say you have to first ask "does watching the film at any other time of year feel weird? If no, then it's not a Christmas movie."

Then, they suggest you ask, "if you take Christmas out of the movie, does it still make sense? If yes, then it's not a Christmas movie."

I think those are fair criteria. It's not a Christmas movie if you can watch it during the summer and have no issue. If it has the same feel in August as it does on Christmas, it shouldn't be a Christmas movie.

Likewise, I feel like Christmas has to be the primary theme of the movie. If you can remove Christmas from the plot and it still makes sense it shouldn't be considered a Christmas movie.

So, given these characteristics I feel like Die Hard would not be considered a Christmas movie. Despite the movie taking place on Christmas, you can watch the movie all year long. It doesn't have to be exclusively tied to Christmas. To me, it doesn't pass the litmus test.

In a new poll, 26% of people said that Die Hard is a Christmas movie. 50% of people surveyed said it is not. Then, 23% say they "aren't sure."

Die Hard isn't the only movie that we question if it's a Christmas movie or not. Some of the best movies of all-time could fall into this vague area. Here are five other movies that are debatable Christmas movies, just like Die Hard.

You can't think about Mean Girls without thinking of the Jingle Bell Rock performance. They're all in their Santa outfits. However, Christmas isn't a big enough theme in the movie.

Harry Potter works great year round. It's a Christmas movie, it's a Halloween movie, due to all the feasts it's even a Thanksgiving movie. However, because of all these factors I don't think it's really a Christmas movie. Still great, though.

A lot of the movie happens on Christmas Eve. It's a big part of the movie. However, no way can we consider it a Christmas movie.

It was originally marketed as a Christmas movie for kids. However, because it's so different from the others it's hard to call it a Christmas movie. Does it pass the test in your opinion?

Pretty much the entire movie takes place during the Christmas season. It's tied very closely to Christmas. It could actually be a Christmas movie, if you think about it.
