Next sign: ok, you're just an a-hole for buying a 22ft vehicle.
He's nice enough to make a sign, at least give the man some benefits of the doubt.
Maybe it's company issued car? Or maybe his work really need a 22ft pickup?
I did give them the benefit of the doubt... by not actually putting that sign on their car!
If they're one of the very rare "I actually need this vehicle", fine, but we don't know.
If they're one of the common "I NeEd tHIs gIAnT veHicLE" people compensating for their own insecurities... not done, but also more likely.
No one here genuinely hates tradies (etc) who genuinely use large vehicles... we hate people who buy them without needing them, because too many of them suck for everyone.
