Exxon-Mobil Deploys Futile Paper Towels to Arkansas Oil Spill

Seriously? Seriously. Exxon really applied paper towels — real paper towels — on certain sections of the Pegasus pipeline oil spill in Arkansas.

I’ve used more paper towels on puppy poop.

Not only is that heavy, thick crude — much heavier than traditional oil — but what did they plan to accomplish by, you know, dabbing up the spill?

This is Exxon laughing in our faces.
