What's something you immediately judge a person for when you see them wearing or have?
-
they work in private spaces too
Too late, ya been judged!

One of those big trucks but they are immaculate, clean, scuff free. So not used for they are meant for: working.
Now they are just taking up space and being dangerous to the public just to try and help prop up someone's ego.
City trucks

Edit: What do you judge them for?
Anything clearly expensive = fucking idiot

I don't. Just the dickheads driving them. It's beyond me why they choose that particular vehicle, but there's definitely a pattern.
Sounds like local subculture thing. Rangers are the small trucks that polite truck guys own around me.

I would never wear a dress, but I would refuse to wear pants!

Probably. It's a fairly different market in Aus than in the US, although we're seeing an increase in Dodge RAMs and the like being imported, usually by the same cashed-up bogans that have apparently decided that Rangers aren't compensatory enough. I realise even those are fairly 'small' by US standards. Y'all are insane with your trucks as daily drivers.

Hood height, engine size, and the physical exterior dimensions of many vans are similar to those of pickup trucks. When used for work, it often just comes down to personal preference. One key difference is towing capacity - most vans are limited to around 750 kg, whereas trucks typically offer much more. Mine can tow up to 3000 kg.
Edit: Also, rear visibility in a van is much worse due to the enclosed cargo area. With a truck, you pretty much have 360-degree visibility.
Here's a great video by Fort Nine that explains how and why the shape and size of these trucks are a threat to everyone outside the vehicle.

smart glasses with built in cameras, and for the same reason teslas
old Tesla's yes. New Teslas are HORRIBLE people

It's against flag code and is considered not a proper flag.
Seems like a dogwhistle confederate flag to me.
-
Any kind of of bumper sticker collection on the trunk(boot) lid.
One sticker with a snarky or clever saying is fine, but I do instantly judge anyone with a collage as a tacky person with poor taste and no sense of boundaries.
It matters not if I tend to agree with the advertised messages, it’s just a huge red flag to me.
what do you think about purses/bags with them?
I also have 2 frog bumper stickers and no other ones

Cybersecurity people with iphones. Not strictly judging them but it is a grim reminder that even the "professionals" barely understand the technological privacy dystopia we live in.
I work in IT and I harshly judge anyone else in IT who willingly chooses an iPhone.
When I started with my current company they gave me my choice of iPhone as a company phone (basically last year's model at no cost, or I could pay a bit and get the latest model).... when I asked if Android was an option I was told "oh, no... Android is open source, so it isn't secure". If I didn't need the paycheck I would have quit right then. I just stared at my boss and didn't know what to say. I mean, I knew what I wanted to say, but I also didn't want to tell my new boss that he's a dumbass.
So now I carry 2 phones and last year I broke my Android phone and had to use the iPhone as my daily driver for a couple of months. I figured I'd come to appreciate the iPhone but no, there was almost no redeeming qualities.

I try not to judge people for what they're wearing or carrying, but sometimes it's difficult.
Just today, I saw a guy in all black, sunglasses, black cap, etc, standing waving a Don't Tread on Me flag.
Beside a Pride parade.
In Edinburgh, Scotland.
WTAF?
You see some fantastic outfits in Edinburgh. I think it's the inability of the locals to accept that sometimes it's hot. They don't really get the idea.
The best I ever saw was someone wearing shorts, white trainers, and a black bomber jacket. Very much giving off a vibe "it's bloody hot outside but I only own the one coat, so I'm wearing it"

I really love how there's one conservative going through the comments and ascribing a solitary downvote to any mention of conservative values, like trucks, crosses, Cybertrucks (cause it's super specific) and the like.
Hey asshole. How does it feel to be part of a community that hates your fucking guts?
wrote last edited by [email protected]I feel you— but also what does this declaration of hate garner us? Is it anything beyond the base tribalistic fervor: “we are strong fear us”. It makes sense if we were in person— but I fear this is how we create silos.
If there are conservatives here, and we continually assault them directly then perhaps they’ll leave— and while personally I may feel that would make the discourse more favorable, they do not disappear; they leave and find a more homogeneous pasture. We shouldn’t isolate ourselves lest we contribute to make debate a toxic no man’s land.

Bonus hate for intentionally loud mufflers. These people really don't care how their decisions affect others.
The only exception to this would be for motorcycles. I get that they want to be heard so that some driver doesn't pull out right in front and cut them off, or attempt to change lanes right into them.
It's a potentially life saving tactic.

What about white undies?
Giggity.

I don't know what they look like over there, but in the US, Dodge Rams are often oversized trucks. The mirrors stick out like they're trying to high five every vehicle (though useful if you're towing.) They're often lifted, dually (double back tires) with oversized exhaust. Drivers sometimes like to "roll coal" which means to spew thick black diesel exhaust everywhere. It's as obnoxious as it sounds. Is that what you're seeing there?

Really really long fake nails. Less judgement and more confusion I suppose. How do you do normal everyday activities?? I'm baffled

wrote last edited by [email protected]Pretty much that, except 'rolling coal' would get them a massive fine over here. Edit: not a fine initially, but they'll tell you to fix it, but it is finable ($495 and 2 demerit points)

wrote last edited by [email protected]This applies to vans just as well though. This Ford Transit is little over a meter longer than a Toyota Hilux so these pictures are roughly to scale.
