Ed MarshallToday I saw someone refer to the X logo as a "sans-serif swastika", and now this is going to live in my head forever.
charles aylward@esm between that and the cybertruck getting tagged the "incel camino" the internet is really coming through...

Aka wankpanzer

sortius@PatrickOBeirne @cda see, I have a problem with it being called a wankpanzer.
It really should be Panzerwankwagen.
Incel camino is much better, though. I'd pay that

your auntifa liza 🇵🇷 🦛 🦦LET ME WELL, ACTUALLY Y'ALL on the incel camino vs. wankpanzer. had a poll that became a thread because the answers were all amazing.

Great thread! .social wouldn't allow me to like the scholarly ones 🙂 , it asked me to login first.
It looks like wankpanzer is of UK origin and Camino, I assume, is a truck in the US. Camino to me is a Spanish pilgrim trail.

@blogdiva @ToniScott @PatrickOBeirne @cda my point was "wankpanzer" is grammatically incorrect, and just means "armour(ed) wank", as it comes from "Panzerkampfwagen" (armour fighting vehicle)
So, Panzerwankwagen, or even Panzerwankerwagen, would be much more appropriate

There's grammar, and there's the demotic appeal of the staccato dactyl, to quote from the thread 😉

@PatrickOBeirne @blogdiva yeh, I'm not much for reading threads posted to me (I'm 100% against quote tweeting). The reality is, for many of us, "wankpanzer" lands bad.
There's no rhythmic advantage to "wankpanzer", IMO, its appeal is purely through ignorance of the root word.
The root word, when "kampf" is replaced with "wank" or "wanker" is much more amusing to me, especially when said with Germanic phonetics: Pan-zer-Vank-Vag-en, or Pan-zer-Vank-er-Vag-en. The latter being much more rhythmic
LOL @sortius @PatrickOBeirne "many". dude, tis the innanets. you're being a wank about panzers 🤓
@blogdiva @PatrickOBeirne you're the one who messaged me with your quote tweeted poll, "well actuallying me".
Maybe take your idiotsplaining elsewhere
