Owning giant pickup trucks and SUVs. I'm not that secretive about it, though. I assume everyone driving them is an insecure, overgrown child who wants a big vroom vroom.

If I know anyone who drives one, I always refer to it jokingly as their 'emotional support vehicle".

I'm not sure about everyone else, but in my case you assume correctly. The only reason I'd want a monster truck is to act like an overgrown child who wants to show off his big vroom vroom. Also, with a mandatory funny honk.

Wow beat me to it.

I'll go a step further and assume they are...speaking loudly while carrying a small stick.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 5 months ago

Interesting. I judge people who body shame people because of what they drive.

I don't like them but they're at least practical.
