A thing has nuts.

You ride it.

Sounds gay.

A thing has nuts.

You get inside it.

Also works for tops :)

I love how people get pissed off at truck nuts. Just ignore it if you don't like them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Or you could just ignore those people yourself, but I don't think anyone is pissed off at truck nuts. They're just tacky. Anyways you'll probably hate this episode of the dollop: https://omny.fm/shows/the-dollop-with-dave-anthony-and-gareth-reynolds/361-the-truck-nuts-war-live-in-phoenix

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 minute ago

Well, it's a very serious subject

Gay lead; when being a stone top just isn't hard enough.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

It works hard, it plays hard.

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.

"mad at the machine for not working or you are begging it to work"

Inclusive or

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 day ago

N-n-nuh uh! It was always a guy, I just helped reveal that truth!

(Whoosh)

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 day ago

Maybe, they came with a new transmission.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait until you hear about genetics

I don't think trucks have those

I have a hitch receiver on my sedan. I've been tempted to get a set for it because I think it'd be funny.

Edit: I've also thought about taking it a step further. My car also has a wiring harness for trailer lights. What if I drill in some red/yellow LED's into the nuts so they'll light up when I brake or use the blinker?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (6 children)

They're illegal in my ~~country~~ county, but I have seriously considered seeing if I could find a vagina to go there instead, since they're not covered in the law.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago (4 children)

What country made truck nuts illegal?‽!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Whoops, autocorrect. Meant "county" not "country"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

What county CAN make truck nuts illegal? If you’re in the US I feel like that’s a first amendment violation.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

That's the "puerile" obscenity carve-out for the first amendment.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

I not sure public displays of genitalia, even fake ones, has ever been argued as a matter of free speech. If it was, the TV landscape would probably be a lot different.

Nuts? Like in anaphylactic shock nuts? I don't get it

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's a thing called truck nuts. It's a rubber ballsack that hangs from the trailer hitch.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (6 children)

No way. You're making it up

Edit: OMG why didn't I die before knowing that

It's always good to witness a lucky 10,000 situation

The two men sold Truck Nuts through the late 1990s and 2000s, competing both in the market and in private, exchanging angry phone calls and emails. This conflict escalated into public relations wars, social media conflicts, posts on review sites, blog attack posts, and finally to legal cease and desist orders. Vice News published an article about the feud titled "Balls Out: The Weird Story of the Great Truck Nuts War".

I am so not surprised

Gender assignment surgery

They would probably be against that too though

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

/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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Nah, they love GAS

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago

Does that mean you can get insurance to cover the purchase of a pair of truck nuts?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

It's true. We didn't make the rules.
