Monster trucks are also redneck shit, that doesn't make them not rad as hell.
Sorry, a truck with giant tires is not "rad as hell."
It absolutely is, it must suck to have an innate aversion to fun.
Amazingly enough, there are many ways of having fun that do not involve looking at trucks or drinking shitty beer.
I feel life draining from me just reading your comments
Homie is the wettest towel on Lemmy.
Like shitting on things poor people like on web forums?
Sorry... shitty beer and monster trucks are "things poor people like?"
That sounds like a crazy and weird stereotype.
You're the one that called it "redneck shit".
And? Are you suggesting that all rednecks are poor or that all poor people are rednecks? Because, as an Indiana resident I can tell you that first one bullshit, and the general lack of black people at Monster Truck shows suggests that second one is also bullshit.
Edit: looked up monster truck show tickets on Ticketmaster for a random show. Tickets range from $35-$75. It's a funny kind of poor when you can afford a $75 ticket to a one-night event.
