1. It was an ordinary morning in front of Estación de Servicio Farruco Escalonilla when a delivery driver pulled up with a smile on his face. He got out and headed straight for the pump, only to notice something odd—every time he filled up, the gas gauge would jump to full instantly, as if someone had already topped off his tank. As it turned out, every time he filled up, his friend—a local mechanic—had been sneaking behind him, secretly pouring extra fuel into the car’s tank. Turned out they were just having some good-natured fun, and soon everyone in town knew about it. Now whenever anyone stops there, they half expect to see their neighbor doing another midnight fill-up trick.

Everyone burst out laughing, including the delivery driver who muttered, 'Guess I’ll never fit in around here.'
