OK, hold on, hold on, have you not seen Max Max?

Yeah I meant product data sheets. MSDS show the EP line was changed over the summer.
You better call your insurance man and make sure you put that on your policy. If he knew you had that much flammable material in your living quarters, he’d drop your policy.
The parts washer, paints, cleaners and other chemicals stored in the basement with the gas furnace are way more hazardous.
Yeah, they do crazy things in Mad Max, what's the point of the Guitar truck? I guess everyone will want to hear their tunes at full volume during a chase scene.
A futuristic take on bagpipes. 
Good night! I don't stash oil. I'd much rather buy it "fresh" closer to the manufacture date and use it then.
You are just getting older.
Or you have lowered your standards?
Yes, because if its been in the ground for millions of year, it's going to go bad in just a few years in the bottle.
Looks like about 60 jugs. So 300 quarts ?? So thats a lot of years of oil unless your servicing a fleet of cars or trucks.
Is it worth if for you to have that much oil sitting in your home ??
Can i ask.. is that two years worth of oil changes ?? Five years worth ?? I think oil prices are going up with inflation. But is it worth having that much money just in oil ?? Is there a shelf with 40 or 50 oil filters as well ??
It might be 5 years or 10 years worth, but I never ran the numbers. What do you mean, is it worth having that much money just in oil? Paid like $30. Not exactly a lot of money.
Yeah I was short half a qt and had to top up with Castrol 0w40. My OCD doesn't like mixing. Hopefully it becomes available before my next oil change and I can stock up.
I started doing my father in law's 2 cargo vans and the sister in law so the father in law stocked up my garage with Pennzoil platinum and Castrol edge 5w30 plus several Fram ultras so I may be using them next time.
Neither of those statements are true.Yes, because if its been in the ground for millions of year, it's going to go bad in just a few years in the bottle.
We really do not know how oil formed in the earths crust. Therefore don't say a theory is "false".Yes, because if its been in the ground for millions of year, it's going to go bad in just a few years in the bottle.
Neither of those statements are true.
I happen to believe the theory that oil is a by product of microbes deep underground and we do not have a "finite' resource of oil. Oil/Crude is being made today.

Sorry that offended you.
What Mobil I our local Walmart has on the shelf ( 3 jugs) is $5.00 more than it was the last time I looked at what they had.
Yep, $30 for EP. PU is still $25, either other will raise prices or M1 will drop. It became most expensive oil in retail store, with some exceptions like RP.
