I saw one with a boat in tow the other day and all I could think about was how much I wished someone would try and use it as a submersible and leave us land dwellers alone.
My wife called me two days ago saying "GUESS WHAT'S FUCKING BEHIND ME!". She was nearly home, and told me to run to the front window and look down the street toward the intersecting road. She turned onto our street, and moments later that stupid piece of shit went zooming by on the main road. I couldn't believe it. It was even dumber in person. I was so delighted she helped make that sighting happen, though.
To me, the Cybertruck looks like someone put a fiberglass shell over an El Camino for a bad straight-to-video 1980s Mad Max ripoff.
Like this sort of thing, from the movie appropriately titled Battletruck:
you mean women are not attracted to rich men, really ?
A woman married me, so apparently not always.
I'm not for one. I'd like someone mature financially, but rich people are all narcissistic.
It's not supposed to look like that up close reality is just glitching and showing the far away model at every view distance
TBH it would be funnier without the image of the Cybertruck. Then the punchline would be a surprise.
I don't know... seems expensive. In my experience, my face is more than enough and I got that for free.
No king your face is not as effective as the truck it has 100% to a face rate is 50% at best
Really? Maybe the problem was my personality all along...
No the effect you can self criticism means you r good on that department and i know some ugly mtf with shit personality have more more relationships then they should I think it's confidence my friend
They're shit cars but gatekeeping manhood is even shittier
No it isnt
Yes it is
My manhood isnt affected at all by this. The "truck" is definitely shittier.
Still doesn't mean that it should be gate kept
It is not gatekeeping manhood, buying a Cybertruck is a clear sign that the man lacks common sense and has more money than brains, two very important red flags. The only women he will attract are the kind that like men with more money than brains. She is just setting her standards high.
Hmm. Normally I'd be inclined to agree, but this really doesn't feel like it's punching at men or manliness. It's more just saying no one will find you attractive if you have a cybertruck. And we all know you can be a man as well as completely unfuckable at the same time.
"You will not get laid" is sorta the basic insult directed at men.
Only because we associate sexuality and "getting laid" with manhood. They aren't the same. Are asexual men less men? No one's gatekeeping manhood in this image, they're gatekeeping sexuality.
But we do associate it with manhood. Until we move on from that mindset, it is an attack on someone's manhood
And the way we move on from that is by each of us, individually, deciding that's not an attack on manhood.
Right, but to see the difference takes time. Some people are more hung up on the current view than others.
We are not moving on today apparently, though a few above tried.
Well I wouldn't have expected us to make a societal change in a day
Societal change starts with the individual. If one person today has changed their views, it's a step.
I'm not doubting that, I'm just saying "we" as a society still associates the ability to get laid with manliness. And that's not changing anytime soon
I saw one in person for the first time yesterday. I didn't think it was possible, but it is even uglier in person. I had to look at the driver to see what kind of person would buy that and to see if he felt shameful.
We saw one in person last week and couldn't stop laughing at how ridiculous it looked.
So what did the driver look like?
He looked lost and overwhelmed by the discussion that his family in the car was having.
The microplastics is free!
Funnily enough, in the military they have those big thick glasses they call BCG which stands for "Birth Control Glasses"
