A Boring Dystopia

The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

Is this a joke? What else could be under that tarp? It even has a little flap for the plug.

I feel my ability to understand satire is being attacked by reality.

And I checked the comments and its a mix of musk riding:

"I don’t understand how people get so easily manipulated into hating someone that has done so much to change our life’s. Elon is great man and is doing great things for our country and uncovering so much corruption and honestly he needs more credit"

or thinking this is a joke:

"That’s not hiding the fact that there’s a swastikar under it"

I wonder if you can apply something adhesive under the tarp and let it just sit overnight. There so many terrible things you can do under a tarp quickly and without anyone even knowing since the cameras are convered up.

After sealing up cracks and drafts in my house, all I can say is one can of spray foam can cause unimaginable frustration.

Ziptie the trigger and chuck it under the tarp.

This dude has a crazy coincidental full name, huh

Nominative determinism!

Given that "existing outside" is harmful to it, I'm guessing that the covering is basically required.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Yes it's clearly satire

It might also be Saddam Hussain.

That's got to be a Musk alt

Swastikka Tent optional.

OP is definitely shitposting. Honestly it's a pretty funny one!

I mean if I were foolish enough to buy such an ugly, hideous, disgusting pile of garbage like the cyber “truck”, I’d be too embarrassed to admit it too. But then again, I guess if I were foolish enough to waste that much money, I’d be too foolish to feel shame.

Spending all that money on an automobile, and not bothering to park it in the garage.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I mean, have you seen these things? It's entirely possible the monstrosity doesn't fit in the garage!

A friend of mine just bought a Toyota tundra and it's too long to fit in his garage. Honestly I never would have thought that'd be something you need to check first.

But then his neighbors won't see how much he owes the bank!

Wait, that place I put all my junk too good for outside but not good enough for in the house is for automobiles?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

The garage only has space for two of my vehicles when empty anyway. Besides, how else are people going to keep tabs on how my project car is going? They need to know when it finally has wheels.

Why does he feel uneasy, the windows are unbreakable.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I heard if you wipe it with a microfiber cloth it would shatter.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

That is the windshield, they claim the side windows. (you know the very opposite way most would want, like a cursed wish)

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I always thought that was a weird challenge to issue. And why would you want unbreakable side windows? To frustrate a rescue?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

It's something that comes in handy when you covertly rob a bank. No broken windows. No one will ever know it's you.

Elon has this thing in his mind where the world will turn into some apocalyptic dystopia like that Futurama episode where Fry freezes himself for another 1000 years. That's also why he put a bio attack mode in the Model X.

And now he's doing everything to make sure the world actually turns into that.

I’ve never thought of it that way, lol. Tech Bros must just say and do whatever they think will earn them the most praise and money. I think that is why they raised that because it was being marketed as an “ultimate truck” even though when it panned out it was the complete opposite.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

There have been a few tesla based deaths/incidents based on a clear lack of a planed way out.
