I was confused about the title because the first page of search said it meant being a crypto bro.
Only Wiktionary had the appropriate meaning derived from the not just bikes channel

Oh nooo, they desperately needed an emergency 10cc of ego transplant but the fell though a bridge on the way to the boostegoification facility.
Rip.
I hope they build a new wider 4 lane bridge to accommodate the most basic traffic needs.
I swear to god, the Ford F-750 looks like if you had asked AI to design the biggest lifted pickup specifically for the dudes with fragile masculinities and court-mandated anger management classes.
So some facts here:
The couple that were driving the truck died, and thier house was sold to a new family, who they haunted.
I lived by a historic covered bridge as a kid. The people in the area would have been PISSED if something like this happened. The bridge was originally designed for horses and buggies, so if your vehicle weighed too much, you couldn't go on it.
L+ratio bozo stupid.
I'm pretty sure that bridge is a portal to another world.

Haha I know that one. NOS4A2. I quite liked it, much in the vein of stranger things. Also contains a car that should get properly fucked.
Fun fact: school buses in the US are legally allowed to ignore posted weight limits on bridges. While this may seem particularly insane, usually on bridges the posted weight limit is not the weight that will make the bridge instantly collapse, it's the weight that if regularly exceeded by crossing vehicles will cause undue wear and require the bridge to be repaired or replaced sooner than it otherwise would have been. School buses are infrequent enough (and relatively light enough, even despite the child obesity epidemic) that they don't create a significant problem.
On a wooden bridge like this, though, the same logic does not apply. I sure wouldn't cross it in my school bus, but the height limit would preclude that anyway.
I was going to say, even if the bus was over the limit on weight for this thing it wouldn't clear the roof, but then you said that at the end.
Oh, it would clear the roof all right - it just wouldn't be a covered bridge any more.
Lololol no it's not. These things have definitions and it ain't Wikipedia nor is it dida dumb thing.
Are we fat-shaming cars now?
Aren't we always?
