So, gas at $5.00/gal? [View all]

Get your child molesting motherfucker, “I did that” decals ready, MAGATS.

Global crude prices continued to surge on Tuesday on worries the tensions could disrupt oil infrastructure and push up fuel prices, adding inflationary risks. An Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander said the Strait of Hormuz — the world's most vital transit route for crude oil — is closed and that Iran would set ablaze ships attempting the route, Reuters reported, citing Iranian media.

Brent crude popped 8% along with West Texas Intermediate futures.
