"Balls" dangling from a truck trailer hitch
Yep, I saw a set of oversized balls or men's y'know -nutsack hanging from one of those monster trucks on the trailer hitch. WTF?!!! Excuse me? Surely the kind of guys that are boasting these things are basically lumox-like right? What kind of animal displays them? I bet his kids look up to their Dad! How does he explain it to them?

I guess we should feel sorry for those poor delusional bastards! I must say it was good for an undelivered thump on the head.


THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO -eeww!:eyes:

16. What if a woman decided to hang a
plastic molding of her vagina on a trailer hitch, wouldn't you think there was something "wrong" with her? I think there's something "wrong" with guys who think it's cool!

23. A vagina is a good idea
It's better than a tennis ball for keeping the rust off the hitch ball! ;)


(I don't know if that's what it's called, but it should be.)

*big truck overcompensating for something missing* jokes. Only now the display is proof that the entire "package" is lacking. :wow:

Someone with his astute knowlege of the meaning of the girth and size of balls...LOL

BTW that poor guy has elephantitis. I can't think of a worse place to be afflicted with it.

45. Yes, it's elephantiasis, caused by a filarial (thread-like) worm called

Dracunculus medinensis. People get it by drinking "suitably contaminated" water containing microscopic organisms that contain the eggs of the worm. It can be prevented by filtering the water before drinking but it's always been a problem convincing people that there's something in the water that they can't see.

The worms grow very long and block lymph flow, causing grotesque swellings. This man's testicles are an example but the swelling can also cause grotesque swellings of legs and/or buttocks, or breasts. I've never seen a photo of anyone with elephantiasis in the arm but it must occur.

27. Trucknutz are funny
I wanted to get some when my ex had the mercury tracer.

Get really big ones.
I noticed big trucks with little ones.
Bout time a little car got BIG ones..LOL.

Anyways it kinda can either be rude, or a clever statement against the idiocy of trucks used as prosthetic penises for some insecure men. Depends on how you look at it.

My folks are southerners but not all of them lean to the right or are stupid..Some are liberal like my grandma was,some of my family hold BA's and other degrees,.There are alot of southerners out there who are NOT typical ignorant bully rednecks..Some are not white at all.

Reality is there are ignorant crass bullies everywhere in many forms and styles and not all of them like trucknutz.

48. So what would you do to Mexican-Americans with colored lights under their cars

or low riders? Make them wear a huge flashing sign saying "I'm a stupid wetback" or "I'm a stupid spic"?

Stop stereotyping people and using insulting terms, okay?

54. "Inbreds in pick-ups"??? "Those people"???

Are you saying anyone who drives a pick-up is inbred? Or are you just trashing people who are inbred? You do realize no one asks to be inbred, right? It's not a choice.

The term "those people" should not be applied to any group of people, except in sentences such as "Those people standing over there are very nice people/friends of mine/a good-looking crowd, etc."

37. I thought it was just a way of saying the truck was dependable as a mule ...
or a reiable "Ol' Hoss" ... not that it didn't strike me as a little tasteless.

These are guys bragging about their rides, not their other "equipment".

for women who drive them.

I just saw these on a pickup the other day. I was thinking "Is that...?"

47. Yeah, I wouldn't read too much into them.

My take is that people just think they're funny.

Some people like to trick out their rides. I guess it started in the Fifties. Remember the hula girls who swayed on dashboards, fuzzy dice, dogs with bobbing heads, rugs for the area behind the back seat just under the window (a place there's gotta be a name for but I don't know it), fender skirts?

More recently it's been decals, bumper stickers, those " ______on board" triangles. Mexicans around here like those lights underneath the car and, of course, low riders.

I never liked the decals of Calvin (of "Calvin and Hobbes") pissing on something but they were popular, usually with Playboy bunny silhouettes on the other side of the back window.

42. It was a woman who invented them
She's from the Tampa Bay area. I've seen women driving trucks with them. OK, I won't hang them on my hitch, but they're good for a laugh - loosen up.
