yeah, they're definitely gonna need that exact same amount of money to help keep their local body shop in business fixing the damages taken while backing out of their driveway

Please, it's sunk cost. They'll drive it until they get bored or it falls apart. Goes to some other idiot or the scrap yard.

i was joking but okay

in all seriousness, most of the people i've met in recent years that actually own cars like this are very genuinely against bags because they're not considered "cool" in their scene for the reasons i originally stated. they will often sit together at whatever poorly organized autozone parking lot show or meet is going on in the area while pointing out which ones are on bags or not and scoff if it's not a pickup/lowrider

i know that a lot of the "I <3 Haters" and Vape Naysh™ bullshit is intentionally annoying but from what i've seen they aren't doing this because of a limited shoestring budget or to be funny

Those trucks would be so much better than rolling coal, you could dump an actual load of coal on cyclists/pedestrians as you drive.

There's a truck I keep seeing locally that is all colored LEDs and hyraulics to flip up the bed topper. And every loving time I see it I hate it, get closer, realise the hydraulics are mostly because of the crane for the driver's wheelchair, feel like an idiot for kneejerk-hating something that's actually really rad.

The math on that really doesn't work unless he lives there and doesn't leave.

28 years is 10,220 days, but he only made 6300 visits. So he either didn't go every day or didn't leave. That tracks with 20,000 meals in 6,300 visits. That's 3.17 meals per visit. Those are some long rear end visits.

There's some truth to it as the only way to get resolution to a problem these days is to get it trending on social media.

"plz help comcast overcharged my grandma for four years and wants a million dollars and I call them every day but they say there's nothing they can do"

Yeah, unless its somewhere like say, Greyhound, that doesn't give a single gently caress about their reputation, you can resolve most of your issues with a company way faster by bitching on Twitter/Facebook.
