ProTip: you can easily deflate a car’s tires by placing a small pebble in the valve cap before screwing it back on
I used to condone this, but people are stupid and can drive on the flat tire until it explodes, potentially putting other peoples lives at risk.
Not worth it for some petty revenge.
That’s why you gotta do all four.
Can take hours to fully deflate, they could be on the Highway home by the time they go flat enough to be noticeable.
Hmmm you seem to know a little too much about this lol
Maybe I’ve had someone have this happen to them and the tire exploded and hurt an innocent bystander. It’s a large world.
The possibility is there if you think for more than a few seconds on the possible consequences of something.
Or we’re just having a little fun ribbing on the internet?
Didnt need life advice lol but thanks

You might think that this is clearly a joke. That no one would actually do this. But you don’t know how the people at the other keyboards are going to take it. Case in point.
I guess you could leave a sticky note on driver’s window that says something like “oopsie woopsie I noticed your tires are deflated, this car is unsafe to drive :(”. Also you could just unscrew the valve core to make sure tires deflate quickly.
No no no, gotta be worse than that. Leave a note apologizing for the damage. There is no damage. They’ll be looking for hours
I like it. A note that says, “I thought I could squeeze in but there wasn’t enough room. Sorry about the damage.” Might make them reconsider doing this again.
I had a student do that. Just a post-it note that said “Sorry for the damage :(“. It was a kid that I wouldn’t have expected to play a prank like that, too: very quiet and reserved.
No, if you do all four insurance will cover it. Only do three.
This is a myth. You can google it if you don’t believe me
If you have comprehensive coverage, this will be covered. If the damage is of less value than your deductible, you won’t receive any money.
I’ve been told if you do all four insurance might be more apt to cover it, best to do one to three of them that way it might not be covered
That’s for knifing. There’s no physical damage here.
Good way to get shot by the owner
only in murica
You think this vehicle is being driven anywhere else?

My move lately has been to stand their windshield wipers up. You’re not doing anything criminally damaging to their vehicle, but in my experience, anyone this self-important will be really bothered by the thought of some random person putting their dirty hands on their precious baby.
Well, that guy is clearly a massive prick, but let’s also talk about how fucking ugly that truck is. I don’t know when everyone decided that land yacht pickup trucks were the bees knees, but they’re not. They’re just dumb and so. goddamn. ugly.
You mean their Emotiional Support Truck.
Pavement princess
For real dude, there’s no decent sized mid sized pickups anymore. I drove my '99 dodge Dakota forever and loved the size! It even had a V8 compared to most of the newer land yachts with 4 bangers and v6s.
I don’t need a block on wheels, I just need a smaller pickup because I camp and haul shit enough to justify needing one vs a car or suv.
Buy an Aussie import ute. They’re exactly what you want and not common in the US so you have a fashion statement.
Last I’d checked, it was virtually impossible to import non-DOT-approved cars to the US. You basically had to take them apart and then assemble them here as “kit cars” to get around stupid grey market rules.
You can either bring in a 25 year old one, or rebody a local Chevy SS or Pontiac G8 with a ute shell.
I know; it’s so easy it’s a wonder we don’t see more of them!
Also partly responsible for an increase in pedestrian fatalities.

There is a lot of anger, frustration, and unacknowledged insecurity going into vehicle purchases in the US.
I agree. The amount of unrequited hate is disturbing.

FTFY
Just check the bed. If there’s a liner, chances are the truck is needed. If it’s clean, it’s a vanity truck.
I own a 350 and am very aware of just how big this truck is. But I do need the pulling power for work related things. I’ve also used it to help people that have broken down.
I haven’t seen a new truck without a bed liner in decades. I apparently thought they were standard equipment.
If you need one, you need one, but I’m confident that a tiny percentage of these things are used for actual work. Also: still ugly. Sorry.

Plenty of 'em out there homie. I bought a used DMax in 2019 and despite being a Denali edition it didn’t come with a bedliner, just a rubber mat for the floor. I should have had one sprayed in when I got the truck because my box is now beat to shit.
I think all the previous owner did with it was tow a horse trailer.
My DMax is a pretty truck but the beat to crap box, without bedliner, is under a tonneau cover so you can’t see it. Another thing you can do is check the receiver hitch, if it’s scratched / rusty inside then you know its being used to tow something. 🙂
My favorite thing is to just leave a note that says, “I’m sorry about the scratch.”
2nd option: “I saw who broke into your car. Call me at (leave fake #)”
is the rickroll number still operational?
God I hope so, what is it?
basically just a phone number you can call and it autoplays rickroll for you. i don’t have it unfortunately, seen it ages ago and never wrote it down
778-330-2389 if it still works.
There’s these too… The UK one at least doesn’t work.
New Zealand (09) 886 0565, Australia +61 (03) 8652 1453, United Kingdom +44 (117) 325 7425 and US +1 (760) 706 7425.
Don’t be too hard on them, maybe this was all that was available when they pulled up.
And so the cycle continues…
When will it end?..
Upvoting for the effort
Better revenge, line up a bunch of carts around the truck, so he has to move them all to get out.
Nice truck, sorry about your dick!
I guess there wasn’t an EV charger available.
Four of the best parking spots, too, judging by the handicap spaces nearby.
You can see on the next line over, there are a ton of empty spots right up front. This is probably some place that’s not open to the public or whatever, or else they just have way more parking spots than they actually need.
I don’t actually mind this IF the person parks in the back of the lot. I get that they don’t want their precious hot wheels monster truck to get dinged, but as long as they park in the back of the lot where there’s no other cars, it’s fine. However, this person is clearly an asshole as there’s handicapped spots next to them, so they’re right up front taking spaces. It should be legal to vandalize their vehicle if a person does this.
Keying this car is a moral imperative.
Ah yes, the Categorical Imperative!
“Key only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same time elude pursuement by the law.” - Kant
My philosophy may be a little rusty…
it’s universalizable. I’d be okay with someone keying my car if I purposely parked like an asshole, so it survives the ax murderer paradox
This should be a felony
This is a parking job screaming for a keying!
In the old days, a friend of mine would carry some paper(?) stickers(?) (labels?) that said something like “I park like an asshole” and superglue it to one of the windows of someone parked like this.
If you wanted to be nicer, you could get some proper pre-printed stickers (most online print/sticker shops should have them) and place them. Wouldn’t cause any damage but would maybe make them think about it a little bit.
I also saw a post recently where someone replaced all the tire valve caps with bright orange or pink little dick shaped caps. This would cause more inconvenience and embarrassment, but not be damaging or dangerous.
I knew a guy that had a roll of custom-printed “I park like a jackass” stickers. They weren’t very large – I think they were originaly labels for folders or something.
But they were on tamper-proof stickers, the kind that were metalic and broke into a bunch of tiny pieces when you tried to peel them off.
He’d slap two or three of them on the driver’s side windshield and window out of the main line of sight, but you couldn’t miss them when driving.
They’re a pain in the ass to get off. I know, because he put one on my car that said, “I lick sweaty ballsacks”.
Wow what an asshole
Holy shit I just found penis tire caps on AliExpress, definitely buying some lol
Edit: I realized I don’t have the courage to actually do this to someone in public and risk getting caught, so I didn’t end up buying any, but they are readily available from your preferred discount app if anyone else wants to
Get the stickers. Faster to apply and less worry about getting caught.

Fuck that; not going to put my own vehicle in the crossfire.
While I normally don’t advocate fucking with another person’s property, keying every single panel of this vehicle is absolutely justifiable in this situation.
If they were disabled spots, I’d agree. I don’t know how many times my disabled ex and I had to park super far away from the grocery store so we could find two spots together to park in so she could use the side ramp because not only did people park in the disabled spots without placards or plates, but they would park half way in the buffer space between spots that’s meant for ramps. And it was Texas, so the cops weren’t exactly interested in helping disabled people. Not that they are anywhere, but especially in super conservative places since many conservatives look at them as a drain on society and a hastle to accommodate.
Was even worse when people would do it when we were in the store even though there was a big warning on the side that said it had a ramp. She had to bang up several car doors with her wheels while trying to jump the side of the ramp with her electric wheelchair. I definitely couldn’t pick the thing up alone, even if I carried her inside first. Usually took at least three people to pick it up totally off the ground. And I couldn’t drive the van without a driver’s seat to pull it out with. It wouldn’t let it move without either the seat installed or the wheelchair locked properly in place, as a safety feature.
Not really. This guy’s an ass. He’s not harming anyone else’s property, though.
This car is a status symbol. It’s completely over dimensioned. It pollutes much more, without any added value in transport, harming air quality (people’s health) and climate, it diminishes other’s views on the road, it diminishes driver’s own view of a child crossing the road, it kills much more easily any unfortunate pedestrian. it’s a very strong statement of “fuck everyone else but me”, damaging this car count as self-defense.
There is so much anger to unpack here, I don’t even know where to begin. Violence directed behavior such as yours is just the start. In the near future you’d be trying assault people who think differently from you and could potentially kill someone. I think damaging your person before that happens would count as self defense.
It’s such a ridiculous argument that people in the United States driving pickup trucks are solely killing the planet. When it comes to climate damage, it ses to fall exclusively on the west. Not China or India, but exclusively Tundra drivers in the US.
Did I say that? Did I say they’re the only ones? I didn’t. I said that that extra pollution serves no good purpose. It’s for a status symbol and it’s not just in the US. Of course it’s not the only thing killing the planet but it’s the easiest thing to cut, and not even that is being cut.
Many people, myself included, use pickups this size for their livelihood. Mine is purposely modified with a lift and oversized tires for the daily off road use that is required for my work. Contractors use vehicles this size to haul loads of materials, tools, or people to jobsites. If you want to remove all of these vehicles from the road, then tell me what your replacement is. Tell me what I should be driving to get through 2+ feet of snow or 8+ inches of mud to do my job. You seem to want to dictate what other people are allowed to use, so in your infinite wisdom, what is the alternative?
Many maybe, but not most. Full-size trucks should be work only vehicles rather than personal ones. With audits done to ensure some work boss doesn’t just order some for fun when they don’t need them.
