ADHDeanASLAs a Gen X adult, I am sadly disappointed in the lack of friendly truck drivers tooling around the country with chimpanzees in their big rigs and helping people in need.
4everpushingaboulder@adhdeanasl Right turn, Clyde!
Paul Chambers🚧@adhdeanasl 10-4 , good buddy
Brian Perry@adhdeanasl Major disappointment, I feel it. It’s the people in need that pay the real price. Where does help come from if your town isn’t visited by a teen superhero that lives in an RV with a kindly uncle, or a rag-tag crew of on-the-lam Vietnam vets in a striped van?
Peter Cohen@adhdeanasl I mean, now who's going to rescue us from Gen X's biggest existential threats: quicksand and killer bees
Pseudo NymAnd the sleeping sickness from tsetse flies!
And given we are living in the ecological disaster foretold in the ancient scrolls, and need to cross the streams with helpful chimps, where are the scientists to bring us salvation?

Daniel Terhorst-North@adhdeanasl While I share in this eternal disappointment, may I be the 94th person to point out that Clyde was an orangutan?
Also, I miss CB radios.
@tastapod OK, but I’m talking about BJ & The Bear. Bear was a chimpanzee who hung out with Greg Evigan. Clyde, from Any Which Way But Loose, was an orangutan who hung out with Clint Eastwood.
@adhdeanasl Ah, fair enough. It was all the 'Right turn, Clyde!'s in the replies that confused me.
I still miss CB radios.
jack@tastapod @adhdeanasl I installed a couple in a gliding club's tow vehicles a couple years back... at least I think they were CB. a losing battle to stop people using the airband channel for admin purposes
@jackeric @adhdeanasl That is so cool! I remember mine was a home-based Barracuda and I set up a huge aerial in the loft. At least it was huge to me, I think I was about 12.
Dean Graham@adhdeanasl and mean truckers tooling around the country with orangutans getting in fights.
