@TheBreadmonkey I’m not buying anything called a “Geely Galaxy Battleship 700” unless it comes with artificial gravity, a cloaking device, photon torpedoes and an onboard computer made of a giant brain in a tank as standard.

@Nickiquote @TheBreadmonkey The brain in a tank is an upgrade. The stock model comes with a freshly graduated ensign.

Reports of captains using their ensigns to DIY the upgrade are baseless.

@TheBreadmonkey Slaps roof, “Don’t worry about the oil crisis, this baby runs on pure, clean melange.”

@Nickiquote @TheBreadmonkey

Thinking of an able passenger powered Flintstone style Touringcar.

Onboard drummer indicating when to hum vrooom. Not buying anything, period.

Free Public Transport!

@TheBreadmonkey Trying to decide between land mines and FPV drones as the best way to take out these wankpanzers and the goppingly awful oxygen thieves who are going to be spunking money all over them? It's a head-scratcher alright.
@brad @TheBreadmonkey .50cal anti-materiel rifle. make nice neat holes through the engine block
@jackeric @TheBreadmonkey Oooh yes, gimme the Barrett and pass the ammo 😄
@brad @jackeric @TheBreadmonkey a can of Fix a Flat sprayed into the exhaust pipe . The ensuing engine issues can take a lot of money and time to diagnose and repair.

@brad

Lol you clearly do NOT have mixed feelings

@TheBreadmonkey 😂 Am I that obvious? Also, clearly the answer to my question is "Why not both and also Jack's suggestion of going all Eric-Bana-in-Black Hawk Down on them, preferably from a helicopter for extra cool points".
@brad @TheBreadmonkey
Was going to mention that there was quite a bit of #SmallDickEnergyAtGetALifeDotCom (© young Swedish woman) but you express it so much better.

@TheBreadmonkey
There are quite a lot of Jaecoo SUVs starting to appear near us and they really do look like Range Rover knockoffs. now the Chinese are coming for the Land Rover too?

I don't have shares in European car manufacturers and I doubt many people here do, but if you do you probably want to think about selling them.

@TheBreadmonkey

It's pretty big, I guess.

Edit. I take issue with "Battleship". It's a cruiser at best size-wise.

In relative terms, a Suburban would be a battleship and the F350 dually would be an aircraft carrier.

😆

@TheBreadmonkey
Hybrid Shit and Slop machine 😬

Nope.

@TheBreadmonkey Ooer, it's 'AI'-powered? Cool, so it doesn't take petrol or have to be charged up with electricity; it just runs on potable water, then.

As to the rest of it: Battleship, yeah, sure, kthx. Get to the good part! Is it a _flagship_? Is it an _all-new_ flagship‽

Attached: 1 image Catch of the day. There is a junction at Tooting that has achieved legendary status. FUVs* try to cut the turn by ignoring the clear markings and driving over the pedestrian walkway - only to meet the sharp end of a nicely placed metal bollard. Driver was ‘outraged’. 😂 I have 20 of these ‘catches’ Will post some more choice ones, when I can find them. Edit: I’ve been inducted into the #WorldBollardAssociation * FarkU #suv #waragainstcars #waroncars

@blabberlicious @TheBreadmonkey Can't park there mate
@afewbugs @TheBreadmonkey
I'm thinking of writing that on the Bollard, now it's painted. But it might ruin the hit rate.
