[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 26 points 18 hours ago (1 child) This is an old(-ish?) copypasta, but it's a good one. permalink fedilink source hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 20 points 16 hours ago I've read it before. I'll read it again. I have a truck, it's ugly, it's old, and it runs, so it gets used to haul stuff, most recently a refrigerator. The owner of the fridge was out of country. I had to be elsewhere at the designated time, so I was not the "arms", just the guy with a truck. I've owned it for decades. I could not possibly sell it for anything like it's value to society. permalink fedilink source parent
