I don't know... seems expensive. In my experience, my face is more than enough and I got that for free.

No king your face is not as effective as the truck it has 100% to a face rate is 50% at best

[–] msantossilva@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Really? Maybe the problem was my personality all along...

I saw one in person for the first time yesterday. I didn't think it was possible, but it is even uglier in person. I had to look at the driver to see what kind of person would buy that and to see if he felt shameful.

[–] cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So what did the driver look like?

[–] HottieAutie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 9 months ago

He looked lost and overwhelmed by the discussion that his family in the car was having.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

We saw one in person last week and couldn't stop laughing at how ridiculous it looked.

[–] darth_tiktaalik@lemmy.ml 9 points 9 months ago

It's not supposed to look like that up close reality is just glitching and showing the far away model at every view distance

We've had the pocket protector for decades.

They're shit cars but gatekeeping manhood is even shittier

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hmm. Normally I'd be inclined to agree, but this really doesn't feel like it's punching at men or manliness. It's more just saying no one will find you attractive if you have a cybertruck. And we all know you can be a man as well as completely unfuckable at the same time.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

"You will not get laid" is sorta the basic insult directed at men.

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Only because we associate sexuality and "getting laid" with manhood. They aren't the same. Are asexual men less men? No one's gatekeeping manhood in this image, they're gatekeeping sexuality.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago (6 children)

But we do associate it with manhood. Until we move on from that mindset, it is an attack on someone's manhood

It is not gatekeeping manhood, buying a Cybertruck is a clear sign that the man lacks common sense and has more money than brains, two very important red flags. The only women he will attract are the kind that like men with more money than brains. She is just setting her standards high.

Funnily enough, in the military they have those big thick glasses they call BCG which stands for "Birth Control Glasses"

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 months ago (6 children)

What is the relation between those two things lol

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 25 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Is this a serious question?

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

Yes I was tired and missed the joke, but now I see it lol

Frankly the downvotes are even funnier because of how stupid the whole thing is, gotta admit

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 9 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Jessica only procreates with men who have nicer cars.

Rather, less stupid cars.

[–] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 8 points 9 months ago

There's a certain type of guy that wants a cybertruck. Most women would want to avoid that type of guy, and certainly wouldn't want to accidentally procreate with them. So the cybertruck is the ultimate cock block for the good of all humankind.

[–] TJDetweiler@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago

It's stupid, but it suggests buying a cyber truck is its own form of birth control.

TBH it would be funnier without the image of the Cybertruck. Then the punchline would be a surprise.

[–] anticurrent@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago (2 children)

you mean women are not attracted to rich men, really ?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

I'm not for one. I'd like someone mature financially, but rich people are all narcissistic.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

A woman married me, so apparently not always.

[–] thefrankring@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Yeah, choose cybertruck over Jessica.

Solves all problems.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

To me, the Cybertruck looks like someone put a fiberglass shell over an El Camino for a bad straight-to-video 1980s Mad Max ripoff.

Like this sort of thing, from the movie appropriately titled Battletruck:

The microplastics is free!

I saw one with a boat in tow the other day and all I could think about was how much I wished someone would try and use it as a submersible and leave us land dwellers alone.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago

My wife called me two days ago saying "GUESS WHAT'S FUCKING BEHIND ME!". She was nearly home, and told me to run to the front window and look down the street toward the intersecting road. She turned onto our street, and moments later that stupid piece of shit went zooming by on the main road. I couldn't believe it. It was even dumber in person. I was so delighted she helped make that sighting happen, though.

[–] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I think the cybertruck is birth control, as I assume no woman would get close to a guy with that car

Wait this is a joke?
