    Owning a cybertruck is an indication the driver is a Nazi. It was always an indicator of very poor taste, but now it marks you as a Nazi. Don’t bother trying to change my mind. I know it, my cat knows it, the mould in that tupperware I keep putting off opening in the far reaches of my fridge knows it.

    No excuses now, and no bumper stickers will dissuade me. It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling.

      Very early on, I think there were some well-meaning people who were really excited about it. The idea of an all-electric truck was brand new, and the promise was huge. It unfortunately wasn’t until after many Cybertruck preorders had been secured that Elon plainly revealed his true colors, and then after it was delivered that people found out it was a piece of garbage

        Yeah, true. But we’re like several years past that now. If you could afford one of those sins against the design gods, you could afford to take the L by now.

      … It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling.

      Or at least sieg selling… AMIRIGHT? 😅

      I’m really hoping to pick one up cheap and make the monster-truck-DeLorean-time-machine of my dreams reality 🤓 But I’m only going up to $3.50 USD… gotta’ crash the whole CyberShmuck™ economy in the process 🤑

    I’ve seen one many times driving to work, or home from family visits (on the same road) and I always make sure they see my finger flying out the window. The last time I saw them, they were having an argument, and I choose to believe they were arguing over something to the tune of:

    “I HATE RIDING IN THIS THING, WE ALWAYS GET FLIPPED OFF”

    “IDK WHAT TO TELL YOU, IT WAS A GREAT INVESTMENT”

    Even if that’s not it, seeing people be miserable in a cybercuck makes me happy on the inside.

      I heard a comedian a while back talking about how her husband gives people a thumbs down instead of flipping them off in road rage situations and it pisses people off so much more, so I’ve been doing that to cybertrucks. I love it.

        Now I need a big thumbs-up… like, carnival lollipop sized emoji prop, but with The Elon’s face blended into the thumb 😎

        Oh! Finally a reason to try Grök… 50/50 all the other fingers end up being CSAM 🫣

      These people don’t seem to get that if you’re buying pretty much anything for yourself, you aren’t winning.

    I’m near SpaceX in CA and see plenty of men in them because SpaceX purchased a bunch for company cars when Tesla couldn’t sell them.

    Also it’s really weird to see like, 8 of them in one place.

      I live in Austin, and I probably see 1-3 Cybertrucks per day. I used to feel deep vicarious shame for them, but that’s slowly transformed into speechless incredulity

      Now I need 2 so I can do a space shuttle wrap job! We should set up a GoFundMe or something to make as many dumb cyber trucks as possible 😅

        Oh! 3 in a row; human centipede style, Drumph up front, Elon in the middle, and either Miller or Bondi bringing up the caboose 😎
