A thing has nuts.

You ride it.

Sounds gay.

A thing has nuts.

You get inside it.

Also works for tops :)

[-] octopus_ink@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 days ago

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!

THEY'RE PUTTING CHEMICALS IN THE GASOLINE THAT TURN THE FRIGGIN TRUCKS GAY

Lead?

[-] NutWrench@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

Gay Lead!

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Lead kills at high speed, at low speed and it turns trucks gay....ok got it all written down. Now. Let's talk about why all trucks come with a prolapsed anus and why Elon wants to remove that too

[-] DillyDaily@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

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

Best truck nuts I've ever seen were two large hex nuts (i.e., for a bolt - but a very large bolt - the bolt would have had to have been an inch/2.5 cm in diameter, at least) hanging from the hitch. Wish I'd taken a picture, it was hilarious.

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 36 points 3 days ago

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

[-] athairmor@lemmy.world 42 points 3 days ago

Maybe, they came with a new transmission.

[-] kemsat@lemmy.world 26 points 3 days ago

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

[-] bluewing@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago

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.

[-] nforminvasion@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days 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.

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

[-] bluewing@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

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.

[-] Pirky@lemmy.world 29 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

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?

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 37 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

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.

[-] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 20 points 3 days ago

What country made truck nuts illegal?‽!

Reminds me of the old gif of that woman skydiving naked

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

i'd look it up, but i'm on my work computer.

[-] Pirky@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

It's a classic. Sadly, I couldn't find it. I think I first saw it in 2012-13.

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.

[-] brown567@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 days ago

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

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

[-] MoogleMaestro@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 days ago

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.

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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.

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

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 🤷‍♀️

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

[-] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 45 points 3 days ago

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

[-] humblebun@sh.itjust.works 45 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

No way. You're making it up

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

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
