    Buuuut having them on your truck makes “deez nutz” jokes funnier!

    I guess if the person knows about the truck nuts, that is.

    Or if you’re at your truck when you make the joke…

    Oh I’ve been looking for an excuse to post this.

    You thought regular truck nutz were bad? Well wait until you see the XL version!

      /uj many conservatives and even many progressives unfortunately ask the doctor or comply with the doctor’s suggestion of gender surgery for intersex babies. It’s rare for sure but not that rare.

      I think even many progressives would not because they’re biggoted against intersex people but fear of the uncertainty in parenting that child. Instead of sitting in the discomfort they would rather just fall back to what they know.

      I mean, I think a lot of us aren’t pissed off about it but think it looks stupid as fuck. And like, that’s just my opinion man.

      I don’t get pissed off about it. It projects small dick energy. It makes me laugh that all these beta males are driving around in transgender trucks.

          The funny thing is that saying something is unhinged doesn’t make it so any more than saying that someone is angry makes it so. You’re reading your own emotions into interactions with other people. That’s unhelpful and unhealthy. You should consider not doing that.

      There are stereotypes of certain personalities who’d attach nuts to their truck, and people are choosing to be associated with them by installing truck nuts. It doesn’t mean they fit the stereotype, they might be nice normal people who do it for their own reasons. But public perception is they think nuts hanging off a truck is funny (dumb) or manly (cringe).

      Sharing my view with a troll who doesn’t care 🤷‍♀️

        Imagine how insane you have to be to do an entire podcast on truck nuts because they offend you. It’s like when conservatives get all pissy when someone says happy holidays instead of merry Christmas

    To be fair, all trucks probably come with many nuts (and bolts) by default, so what’s 2 more?

    Because that’s what it means to be a MAN! Bolting fake testicles onto your truck.

    Bunch of striving, alpha-male wannabe, Oakley-wearing Thumb heads.

    Never thought about it, but modes of transport are usually referred to as she/her, so this totally checks out.

      Machinery of any kind is often gendered in the feminine. Particularly when you are either mad at the machine for not working or you are begging it to work.

        Always cracked me up when my uncle would yell at whatever he was working on, “come on, you whore!”

          Well, that seems pretty mild. Having been a toolmaker, I have often threatened machines with being reduced to tiny little chips or slag and I will create something better from scratch.

        The machine spirit cares not for our trifling concepts of gender and binaries. It demands only loyalty to the omnissiah and purity of mind.

          The machine spirit cares not for your loyalty. It only wants to grind YOUR spirit into dust while destroying your mind. Cthulhu trembles in fear.
