30 years ago, at a convenience store, I observed a young woman checking the air in her half inflated tire with a pencil type air gauge. It was taking a long time and she seemed a little frustrated, so I walked over the see if I could help out. She said "I can't get this tire to air up. I can hear the air going in, but pressure is less and less! Yes, she thought the pressure gauge would magically inflate her tire..bless her heart
I managed to suppress laughing, and showed her where the air pump station was located and how to use it
