    It’s both in this case though. People are pretty outspoken in how ridiculous that thing is, and he knows it too.

      He knows it and he did it intentionally, but the people laughing at him are his imagination. He’s projected these thoughts onto them because he feels self-conscious, nobody said a word to him. It’s just as likely the woman was laughing because she’s on the phone, or the man was smirking at something on a podcast he’s got playing.

      Edit: Will you people stop telling me you laugh at Cybertrucks. I don’t care, that’s not the point.

        I’ve pointed and laughed at every Cybertuck I’ve seen for the reasons the guy referenced in the post thinks. I’m full-on laughing at the people who plopped down $100k for those 4-year-old’s-drawing-of-a-fucking-Halo-Warthog pieces of shit. Bullying serves a social function and these dumbasses are in need of it.

        As a counter-point, I’ve seen Cybertrucks out in the wild on at least 3 occasions now and each time I thought to myself, “Look at this fucking idiot.”

        One time someone else was in the car with me when we passed a Cybertruck and he did point and laugh at it.

        I have actively pointed and laughed at multiple cyber trucks driving around San Diego this week. I have witnessed other people are doing the same. There’s an absurd number of them here, 3 parked on my street alone. One is wrapped in fucking fake gold leaf for fucks sake. How do you not openly laugh at these idiots

        “I want to draw attention to myself”
        “Wait not like that”

          Pretty sure I’ve seen the fake gold one in IB. I got a good look at one yesterday. They aren’t even trucks. There’s no bed. They are hatchbacks!

          I’m calling them cyberbacks from now on
