I talked someone I knew into not buying a cybertruck. Still showed their colors as a complete moron and got drummed out of all the circles we shared a little while ago. Turns out that you can take the idiot out of the dumpster, but you can't make them think.
I appreciate that this moron was kind enough to include the cybertruck in the background to let everyone know they didn't have to worry that he'd injured any brain cells with that concussion.
What gets me is those things ain't cheap. Assuming the axe dude actually bought it I just find it really mentally hard to square such idiocy with having enough money to make that purchase. Maybe he has rich parents..
There are 4 wankpanzer owners in my town, watching them drive and how they park makes it painfully clear just how stupid they are. One of the four claims to regret being locked into it, early donater can't sell it Yada Yada. Don't personally believe him, but mebbe worth mentioning.
It's like this episode, except instead of the CEO having a dipshit brother, the CEO cut out the middle man and just took on the role of dipshit himself.
It not about the look. Its about association. Kind of like sports jerseys. Some are horrendous, other have terrible color coordination or cannot be match with any pants. But people do not buy and wear them to look good. It about showing showing support, letting others know what you are about.
They literally look like something out of a soapbox derby for kids, but the really low effort ones where you just paint a cardboard box and fit it over a wagon or bike to make a "car" and call it a day... I can never get past the mental image that you could lift the outside case of a cyber truck and slip it onto the car parked next to it and no one would even notice.
One of the few I've seen had a decal for a roofing company on it. Would you trust that person to work on the literal roof over your head? Smart business move buddy
As a child of the 80's, the concept photos were dripping in Cassette Futurism. So yes, I was initially drawn to it... but never even close to laying a down payment.
There was a time when a bunch of dudes with more money than sense, and a lack of emotional development, saw a truck that a renegade rich dude promoted, and it looked like something their inner 9-year-old self would have thought was totally rad, and since their inner 9yo writes the checks for their weird life, and they don't know how to learn from bad decisions, a whole new economy was born.
Hilarious. That’s literally the plot of one of the new Always Sunny episodes. Paraphrasing: “The Cyber Truck is what we were promised as kids all cars would look like in the future! With sharp edges and stuff!”
There can be no greater demonstration of spite than doing impractical and self-harmful things just because your enemies advise you against it, especially if it's out of their genuine desire for your wellbeing. And there can be no greater demonstration of fealty to a fascist leader than doing the same because they ask it of you.
Except they have taken even a step behind that, what we have seen at this point, which is when people that love them and want good things for them, like Healthcare and clean air, advise them of these things and they do exactly as you describe.
I like the look of the cybertruck. Its both simple and unique. Its the lack of performance, maintenance difficulties, price, social/political baggage, and that it appears to be put together with glue that drives me off. pun unintended.
If the Cybertruck was made by literally anyone else with the same aesthetic but better internal design choices, I’d like it. So basically the Deepal E07!
Exactly. If someone put one out that had the same aesthetic but didn't throw out a century's work of vehicle design knowledge along the way I'd be on board.
LiarLiarPantsUntier
Would the brain damage from an axe undo the brain damage from buying a cybertruck or does it stack? (I’d say stack)
Becker37
Why do these people have so much money
woozle
FlintNorth44
Did someone say Cybercuck
diezl97
I was expecting the axe to bounce yes but also expecting it was going to smash the dumpster behind him.
SinfulDeviant
Oh, you mean a WankPanzer

Okay, I chuckled.

OldBikerDude
He must have done that before he agreed to buy the Nazitruck
MissWhiteRabbit
Yup pretty much
Grimlinnan
NaziWagon and an idiot. Darwin is at work here.
dogmatix
Also - why the fuck have they parked the blue car SIDEWAYS in the drive?! Just to do my head in?
MapleSyrupMafia
To stop the WankPanzer from rolling down the street.
Rihn
I thought he was about to reveal a huge bump in his forehead. As if he also had that experience.
CrumbyCake
Just missed its mark.
Cosmicfisherman
That goes to show you people! The penance for buying a cybermuck is high
RobBobertyYT
Good thing he didn't hit the cybertruck. It might have exploded.
FlintNorth44
No, no...let it explode.
Apeofdeath
Judging by the car he drives, he may be an idiot
baldbear
So, nothing's changed.
YippeeKayakOB
Clearly, there is something wrong with that yoga ball. He should throw it in the dumpster behind him.
mercswar
Was hoping the axe bounced back and broke the trucks windshield
ZySoua
He has a Cybertruck, it’s not like he has anything in that head of his that would get damaged anyway…
aoshistark
The cyber truck gave away the ending before I even clicked on the video.
johnvictor
The real question, why was he trying to chop a yoga ball in half? Was this some anti woke thing his feeble little mind thought of or something?
thegoldeneaglect
I mean come on, there's a cyber truck in the background of the shot so we know the guy makes poor life choices
jackohill108888
Good thing there's nothing inside that skull that could get damaged.
ironymus
Not anymore
blevins113
Probably made a sound like thumping a hollow log
noReallyIamPrincessBob
Wow, I can’t believe he’s still upright after that hit.
Humputse
Their head is hollow, nothing critical was damaged.
TheMayo16
I watched it a few times i thibk the head of the axe might have just missed his head, instead the handle cracked him, still sucks but not as bad
Steffn
Looks like he just staged the whole thing.
pfunk81
This. The head would have caved his skull in and killed him. Collision mechanics is a real thing.
cosinewave
Yeah, the Cybertruck was a clue

So did he split his skull in twain?
WateryTartan
Maybe. It will certainly leave a mark.
BeardedViking
Unfortunately, it was only the shaft that hit him.

The handle is too short ... for Full Effect!

Eventually the CyberCuck will do the same thing with normal use

I had a relarive that caught one of those on a clothesline.

Something WILL get chopped...

I know people can have strange tastes, but it still blows my mind that anyone can look at a Cybertruck and think "I gotta have that!"
Nanntuckett
“But it has all those sharp edges and looks cool!”
Otomasoteraph
It explain the "chopping the yoga ball" too
intashu
Same people who probably bought a H2 hummer. More money than sense for an impractical vehicle.
riphenstone
I was never a fan but, compared to how it looks in person, it looked a lot cooler at launch.
BatmanAndCradleRobin
I know I am in a minority, I think it looks cool in photos, in person parked it looks hideous though driving not so bad. Absolute shit vehicle though.
MassiveKy
They don't. They go "Hah! The liberals will hate this"
popejubal
I’m cool with six year olds who want a car that will match their drawings.

Trying to chop a yoga ball with an axe can cause the necessary brain damage 😄

I don't disagree - then, on the other Hand, there's the Fiat Multipla to put things into perspective

I think it has to do more with what it represents to them, and that they want people to know. And they know we know what it represents.

i "wanted" one for a few weeks after they announced it for the memes. but no legitimate desire to pay so much for that.

Agreed. The Chevy id really like to have as well but it starts at 80 something thousand dollars. Rivian is nice as too.

The fairly neat looking front end is completely wasted on the preschool car drawing-esque rest of the ugly dumpster machine
