the whole small dick thing

2019-11-30 00:06:46 UTC  

Wait, is destiny relevant again?

2019-11-30 00:06:52 UTC  

lol

Just remember, you may make fun of truck drivers all you want. However, they were the first responders in their lifted trucks in hurricane Harvey because the military's were drowned;.

the rednecks save the day

2019-11-30 00:09:42 UTC  

for me there are "trucks" and "pickups"

2019-11-30 00:10:58 UTC  

"trucks" are big and build to haul goods, most of them have trailers. they are build by the likes of Mack and Freightliner.
then there are "pickups" and those are built by the likes of Ford or Toyota.

2019-11-30 00:11:45 UTC  

Chevy?

2019-11-30 00:12:00 UTC  

they make pickups sure.

2019-11-30 00:12:23 UTC  

basically the difference is Volvo and Chevy.

2019-11-30 00:12:33 UTC  

truck is an umbrella term for me

2019-11-30 00:12:46 UTC  

there are semis and pickups

2019-11-30 00:12:53 UTC  

yah, I know.

2019-11-30 00:13:03 UTC  

I usually call the pickups trucks

2019-11-30 00:13:09 UTC  

so when i say "truck" you need to read "semi"

2019-11-30 00:13:15 UTC  

:)

2019-11-30 00:13:20 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:13:29 UTC  

that clears up a bunch

2019-11-30 00:13:32 UTC  

a pickup is still just a 4 wheeler to me.

2019-11-30 00:13:37 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:13:43 UTC  

In the UK truck = semi/box van etc. and a US truck = pickup, I think the same goes for Aus and NZ too

2019-11-30 00:14:01 UTC  

hmm

2019-11-30 00:14:16 UTC  

thanks for the terminology @TheRandomist

2019-11-30 00:14:36 UTC  

It gets confusing, and that's without mentioning pants!

2019-11-30 00:14:46 UTC  

i'm a US truck driver.

2019-11-30 00:15:11 UTC  

I figured that you drove a semi

2019-11-30 00:15:23 UTC  

so a "truck" is gonna be a U-haul at least.

2019-11-30 00:15:25 UTC  

the whole 12'

2019-11-30 00:15:36 UTC  

So a truck is a pickup, but truck drivers drive semis? 🤦‍♂️

2019-11-30 00:15:51 UTC  

uhhhh..... yah i guess.

2019-11-30 00:16:00 UTC  

different terminology for different people

2019-11-30 00:16:04 UTC  

language doesn't always make sense.

2019-11-30 00:16:06 UTC  

we aren't as united

2019-11-30 00:16:24 UTC  

but we still are united by Country

2019-11-30 00:17:01 UTC  

well that was a good conversation

2019-11-30 00:17:57 UTC  

I mean, both are short for pickup truck so it's just a different perspective I guess.

2019-11-30 00:18:01 UTC  

i'm trying to find a road sign that is the perfect example of discrimination against trucks.

2019-11-30 00:18:16 UTC  

lol

2019-11-30 00:18:33 UTC  

I know the sign i want, I know the pice of highway it's on.

2019-11-30 00:18:37 UTC  

I know those max clearance for highways

2019-11-30 00:18:40 UTC  

I have no idea how to quickly search for it.
