    I realized she was laughing derisively. She was like, “What kind of person would drive something like that?” Or, “That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.”

    Granted, she could have been having a weird reaction to a stroke or something, but I’m pretty sure I saw what I saw. Then today, I was at a four-way stop, and a guy in a Nissan Titan/Toyota Tundra or something smiled and then chuckled like: “What a tool.” Or, who would drive something like that?”

    Mate, these thoughts are in your head. My partner has bouts of anxiety where she assumes people are always thinking the worst of her, so I’m hesitant to make fun of the dude because I’ve seen what it can do to someone, but he’s clearly bought a dumbass car to get attention and now he’s feeling insecure about it. It’s sad.

      I’m leaning towards the poster being a troll.

      That is way too self aware to be a cybertruck owner.

      That’s fair that it’s mainly in the head of the person in the story.

      That being said my partner and I actively point, laugh, and make fun of any cyberturds we see on the road very obviously. I’m sure we aren’t the only ones.

      But this is really what people are thinking, not just in his head. I’ve chuckled to myself when I see these things, and they definitely are noticed by everyone so someone straight laughing upon seeing one is not out of the ordinary.
