A signal that they are a rube, and that they will spend all their money on useless things.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 6 points 3 weeks ago

Ohhh. I like this.

This isn't snide internet commentary. This is wisdom.

People that buy crap like this are easily ripped off, and paint targets on themselves for future cons.
So if I wanted to con somebody ... and I saw this guy ...

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago

Is this another term for pavement princess?

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Oh ya, need a snorkel for the Starbucks drive thru.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

Wrong side for that. How the truck gon drink if the snorkel is on the passenger side?

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm waiting till he puts it in the lake.

Hopefully with no innocent passengers this time.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I've been thinking of printing out labels that say 'plastic masculinity facade' for these cars (they're everywhere in NZ)

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Do they have snorkles? Because I think that's a REALLY questionable feature on a pickup truck.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

What kind of a question is that?

of course they have fucking snorkels

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

I am an ignorant NW American. We have our hicks and our dicks. Those are my friends. Snorkleboy is one of them.

I drive an overly large (fuckcars would hate it), older plain white pickup with black trim. It's a mobile home, hauls kayaks, cowboy limo, and gets me places. Plus, it gets stuck on the beach.

Most of us don't have snorkles.

(EDIT ... Um, I realized that my white pickup is in the background of the pic. It ain't special.
At least I didn't post the other pic with the distorted reflection of me that looked evil and odd. Hell, I manged to keep my license plate out of it. Good enough.)

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

a mobile home, hauls kayaks,

at least it's not a pavement princess. guy down the block has to literally grab a step stool to help his wife into his. It's never been off asphalt. he drives it to his tech job 35 miles away.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

Smoochiepie goes everywhere. Real fast. Pretty comfy too. Til the road stops. Then we setup camp or drop the boats right there.
She's a bit heavy to drag out of ditches and such. We like to avoid that.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Thing is, if it's older, it probably doesn't have obnoxious flared wheel arches and whatnot like this 4 wheeled collection of fragile masculinity.

If it's a mobile home and hauls stuff, that's completely granted (although the snorkel in most cases is almost certainly ridiculous performative bullshit), yours sounds like it has a purpose 'beyond ego boundaries'

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

I mean it's not a car, it's a light pickup truck.

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I always wondered if a can of soda would fit into one of those.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Good God In Heaven!
Now this is the sort of thinking I really like to see on the internet.
Let's continue to explore ideas. I hope none of those ideas include stealing my lugnuts. Let's keep it reasonable folks.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It makes more sense once you see the driver

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's nice to see someone else posting an Ocean Smurf. Thought I dreamed them for a while!

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

I also dream of shitty derivative 80s cartoons

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 4 points 3 weeks ago

Hmm. Teensy bit more gut. Goofy grin. Snorkle. ... Good enough.

[–] malloc@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Could be worse. Could have been an incel camino

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Now, I know a very nice couple that own a Camino. She's awesome, and he's her gearhead rockstar.

But its a fukin weird lookin car, that's fer sure.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

OP was taking about a Cybertruck, the worst of all.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Oh. Ya, srry I'm old. Thx.

This is sublime. I made a dupe comment about being old. Lovely. :)

[–] Zagam@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

And Sublime did a song about playing the same song twice.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh. Ya, srry I'm old. Thx.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Am old, didn't know either.

[–] bieren@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Snorkels do more for getting the intake above dust and dirty air than improving fording depth. The low hanging electronics in the engine are the biggest concern. I can put a snorkel on my truck, the fording depth does not change.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Just need to get a truck without electronics in the engine bay then!

Maybe crank it by hand to start

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

If we're building it custom, might as well go with the good ol' shotgun shell ignition

[–] jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Anyone trying to drive a Tacoma in water that deep is "up shit creek without a paddle." Quite literally.

[–] nwtreeoctopus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

They're really better for dust and such.

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The snokle isn't for water. It's for dust.
