      this is such a stupidly pathetic insult that really just pisses me off to no end when people say it. hell it’s not even an insult, it’s just stupid and always has been… might as well just make fun of people for skin colour and gender.

        Those aren’t a choice. Driving a pavement princess 100% is.

        They usually try to justify it with the loose excuse of hauling or towing things, that they do maybe twice a year. It’s pathetic.

        The ones that actually get used regularly for their design are obvious, because they’re beat up from use. And from my experience, they also tend to be the ones that don’t park like this. Likely because backing in means you can’t actually load anything in the bed.

          I don’t give a damn about the trucks/drivers. Insult them all you want. don’t use body parts as insults. it’s no different then using skin color, or saying someone is a lesser human because they have small tits or if their balding they are a weak human…

          they are bad insults that make innocent people feel inferior for no reason.

          When I was working a Lowe’s I had loads of princesses rolling through with monster trailers, hauling tons of rock and lumber.

          I think it’s fine for people to get a truck cause they like how it looks

            I think its moronic to drive something that is meant for work and is never used for it. Also, they are far heavier than cars, use more fuel, take up more space and are lethal for pedestrians in an accident.

            Maybe I should walk around in a suit made of outward pointing knives because it looks cool.

        It was always about making fun of insecure masculinity, which is a very outsized problem in our current moment. But I do think you’re right and I’ll start calling out that instead. ✌️

        If you get this upset by everything you hear and don’t like online, you’re in for a rough life bud.

            Yeah, but of all the things to take a stand on and put energy into, this? Really?

            People are starving, kids are homeless, but this is your stance against society?
