Anyone with a truck carrying giant flags. If you are in the US, you know what I mean.
Yeah, these are often the people that grumble about women having rights while they crush beer cans in their heads. The supreme assholes are the ones driving $50k+ vehicles with a little black and white flag with a blue stripe. These are the creepy ass country club motherfuckers that own businesses and have racist agendas that actually affect people due to their high status in society.
Yeah, I’m generalizing a lot here (aren’t we all?) but by and large those are dog whistle symbols for hatred.
The “Don’t Tread On Me” flag placed by these entitled assholes is what always gets me. Bitch, no one has tread on you as much as you tread on everyone else.
The FL government sells a “don’t tread on me” vanity plate. Somehow the irony of giving the government extra money to show what a rebel they are is lost on them. Smh
I’m conflicted by this because the other day, I saw one of these with LGBTQ+ flags and not the typical American, Mexican, Rattlesnake or Trump 2024 flags.
Still, it was on a giant truck clearly not for working on a farm or hauling anything but ass and those giant flags are obnoxious no matter what they are signalling.
They’re in Canada, too.
Not one of our best exports
We breed our own here, too, unfortunately
Anyone with a truck that doesn’t own a farm or is a contractor.

Lifted trucks. My assurance goes up 10x if they have rims and tires meant for the road.
Lifted Dodge Ram. They are more likely to be drunk too.
Welcome to my new segment, You Might Want to Know?
Dodge and Ram are two different brands and product lines. Rams are the trucks, and Dodge makes muscle vehicles.
But as to your point, you’re more right than you possibly know!
Knowledge is knowing that Ram is now itcs own brand. Wisdom is knowing only nerds who use federated social media would care. Understanding is appreciating all new content people provide.
Extra points if the have wheel spacers
truck nutz. like. not new (which might be a gag. I did zip tie some onto a friends car once. But, uh, it was a prius, and they were dragging on the gorund.)
100x if it’s squat… Squated?
It’s so dumb like Fucking whhhyyyy
My friend and I bought trucks around the same time. Mine is a simple tradesman Ram, no bells and whistles, primarily for moving and hauling stuff that can’t fit in my wife’s sedan.
I’m a pretty passive driver. Live and let live, y’know?
My friend had a similar personality when he first got his Tundra (of course with all the extras he can afford). Then he goes and spends $10,000 on a lift, winch, and floodlights. Now he’s like a different person. He drives super aggressively, whipping round corners, weaving through traffic going 20mph over on the highway. He was driving me through some quiet neighborhood the other day and nearly mowed over a cyclist. I asked him what the hell he was doing and he shrugged and said “if she’s gonna ride a bike in the street, she’s gotta look out for trucks. Not my fault if she doesn’t see me”
TL;DR - truck drivers are fine, a truck is a tool like any other vehicle. Lifting your truck turns you into a redneck scumbag overnight though apparently.
(EU) SUVs. Are you insecure and too stupid to drive? GET A CAR 20% larger in every dimension so you can piss off the whole world with your incompetence.
Or do you have a genuine reason that makes them advantageous?
I have an SUV because:
- my mother in law has mobility issues and struggles to get in/out of a saloon.
- my wife has neck issues and the higher driving position is better for her
- I like it (ok, that could make me an arsehole)
Truth is that mine (BMW X1) is at most 5cm bigger in any dimension, if at all, than the car on which it is based (Mini Cooper). The extra size is an optical illusion.
Well then just block all roads and murder people while you are at it. A ok.
Did you read my post?
Would it be correct to sum up your post as: my family is so handicapped they can only drives SUVs, i am an asshole and need to talk about my COMPACT SUV because people in my life do not talk about it enough?
That’s similar to why I hav an SUV. My dad has mobility issues and has a scooter to help him get around. The SUV is higher off the ground making it easier to get in and out while the larger cargo space can hold the scooter and anything else (groceries, luggage, etc).
Also - the mass and form of an SUV makes them a good option in terms of safety. Smaller vehicles get crunched like pop cans, and trucks get sandwiched by their own bed if you hit a solid object.
Making yourself safer by making everyone else less safe still seems like an asshole move to me?
Bumper height should have been regulated on city roads, then we wouldn’t have gotten this escalation. Work truck, sure. If you need one, you need one. But people who drive a massive gas guzzler to park it at the office and go up the elevator to work?
Actually no. SUVs are great at murdering the drivers of other cars, they do not in fact protect you any better. Its just a big blow up dick for assholes.
- Teslas
- Really large trucks that are clearly not being used for actual work
- BMWs
- Lexuses
- Shitty little ricers that aren’t fast, they’re just obnoxiously loud
- Anyone with a rented box truck (like a UHaul) driving in the far left lane of the freeway.
- Cop cars
I’m surprised to see Lexus on that list.

Anything with truck nuts attached
Hold up. Truck nuts on a Prius or PT Cruiser is fucking hilarious
For giggles I kinda want to put them on my minivan.
For a minivan, hilarious.
Lifted truck rolling coal is 100% an asshole.
Tesla’s have become the new BMW drivers from my experience as of late.
Strangely… I don’t think it’s the fault of the driver (well, they still picked the car)… The lane assist FSD autobraking is all fucking awful.
Next time you see one get in front of it about 100 yards ahead and tap the brakes… Don’t brake, just flash the tail lights… The Tesla will slow down every time.
They’re terrible cars for terrible people I guess.

Well… Yes… The other self driving systems have fixed those problems already.
Next time pick a manufacturer that cares about it’s developers.
How would you even be able to tell how much they care about their developers, unless they make the new for bad working conditions? Not defending tesla, just not sure if any manufacturer actually cares about their developers.
Edit: Tesla sucks, but Musk is also really bad at staying out of the news. Every corporation is driven by profit, and most billionaires are better at hiding scandals than Elon Musk.
Any truck but Dodge Ram in particular.
Ram trucks are the official vehicle of domestic abuse.
Tesla.
Ram Trucks. according to research, these vehicles are the most likely to be driven, and wrecked, by a drunk driver. People who instinctively idolize an animal that solves it’s problems by smashing them with it’s face… probably not the best people to drive near.
Living in Australia where US trucks really don’t go on our roads well, I can attest to Ram drivers being the most dreadful drivers here. As we’ve come to call it, Emotional Support Vehicles.
Among Truck drivers, Rams are usually the objectively worst vehicle for doing trucking activities on a per yearly model basis. So it kinda makes sense the dumbest people with trucks aren’t the ones who know anything about truck capabilities either.
It’s got nothing to do with any weird animal symbolism bro. Thing is, dodge will finance absolutely anybody. And dodge makes a fun vehicle until it breaks down.
do rams break down alot? because my father daily drove one for like 20 years without it breaking down
It’s like 50/50 lol. My brother has a 20+year old Ram, no problems. My Ram went tits up after 4 years. But my Charger ran like a champ until I sold it. If I’m ever in the situation where I can justify a fast car again, it will definitely be a another hemi. As far a trucks go tho, I’m a die hard GM fan these days.
Im old fashioned but i still think only dicks drive bmw’s
I’m only up voting you for your user name.
NL here: Imported American trucks. You do not need a car that costs €5000/month in fuel alone that you cannot use practically in any way that a van, a regular car or even a bakfiets could do more cost-effectively. The only people who go through the effort to get such a vehicle are compensating for something, and a Dodge Ram in The Netherlands is only useful for dick measuring, and the most significant thing it’ll ever move is the owner’s fragile ego.
We look at those people the same in the US too tbf lol
In NL they have a lot less legitimity, there are no mountains, no huge private farms, no vast plains with subpar roads.
Teslas, Pickup trucks, SUVs
I drive a Tesla. I guess I’m an asshole for trying to pollute my immediate surroundings less.
If you want to pollute less, then ride a bicycle.
On that topic, someone have a comfy seat recommendation for penis bearers? I sit on my seat for 2 minutes and things start going numb that shouldn’t go numb unless it’s playtime with my wife.
Get a saddle with a cut out and go faster. More pressure on the pedals means less on you backside.
Strangely a saddle that appears more uncomfortable is usually more comfortable. All you want is to support you tail bones and nothing else. If it is applying pressure elsewhere, you will get discomfort.
Personally, I use Fizik saddles. They are not cheap, but they are amazing.
Thanks! I’ll look into them.
Bicycle.
Yesterday while driving on a two lane road with a bike lane there were two people on bikes. What appeared to be a man and a woman in full brightly colored garb and helmets. Both were weaving in the bike lane and/or riding on the dividing line between the bike lane and the road. At one point, as a few cars were approaching them from behind, one of them whips over into the center of the road for no reason other than to block traffic thereby forcing the overtaking cars into the oncoming traffic lane. There was no obstruction on the bike lane. The other rider proceeded with weaving about unpredictably. She simply couldn’t stand the idea of someone safely passing them and forced an unsafe condition for everyone involved…
Can’t Understand Normal Thinking.
I pray that every bike she every rides has a slow leak in both tires no matter how often it is patched or replaced. The more time she spends off the road pumping up the tires, the less time she is endangering herself and others.
Rarely is someone on a bicycle and not an asshole!
For pulling out into the lane, it may have been called “taking primary”.
If the road is not wide enough to pass them safely, that is the best place to be. That way drivers cannot try and squeeze through. Obviously, I cannot speak for the precise road conditions where this happened, but it is legitimate in certain circumstances. Traffic calming is a good example, as it makes the lane too small for a safe overtake. Add in the fact that most cycle lanes in cities are more dangerous than the main carriageway and you can see why cyclists will take the prime quite often.
That’s where the problem lies… in that particular area the bike lane is plenty wide enough for two bikes to ride side by side and the main roadway, in both directions, is plenty wide enough to not crowd the bike lane. No reason whatsoever for her to move out of the unencumbered bike lane and block the automobile lane which forced everyone attempting to overtake into the oncoming lane. It WASN’T a no passing double line so it was a safe place to take the oncoming traffic lane if it is empty of traffic. She was clearly playing stupid games. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes or fuck around and find out both apply and if she keeps up with that type of action then most certainly some day she will find out what winning a prize is all about. Of course the automobile driver will be the one at fault for driving in the main traffic lane and not avoiding the asshole on a bike.
This is such a strange perspective. I’m not a bike rider, but never understand people’s issues with bikers, joggers, or anything on the road besides cars. Sure, assholes are everywhere, but nearly every biker? That has not been even close to my experience, and I mostly see cars/trucks being unnecessarily aggressive towards bikers and runners.
I live in an area with a lot of paved bike trails… made specifically for bikes, walkers, and joggers to have a SAFE place away for automobile traffic to enjoy their outdoor activity. Also there are bike lanes along side many main roads. The issue is the asshole that isn’t using the provided bike lane and intentionally blocking the main automobile lane while weaving unpredictably thereby making it unsafe to pass.
Driving down the road and a farmer on a tractor pulls out with a trailer loaded down with hay going 5 mph… that’s an annoyance but he’s got work to do and NEEDS to get where he’s going… sucks to be caught behind him but whatever he’s gonna get off the road eventually.
An asshole on a bike unnecessarily whipping over in front of a line of cars for no reason other than to be an asshole… that’s not acceptable behavior that’s a self important entitled asshole. Blocking traffic for LOLs is a dangerous game to play.
