What's something you immediately judge a person for when you see them wearing or have?
-
Anything clearly expensive = fucking idiot
I must say this seems a bit shallow...
There is a saying in my country - I am not rich enough to buy cheap stuff.
This means that buying cheap stuff, which usually has poor quality, means you need to pay more to either buy new cheap stuff when it breaks or pay for repairs or maintenance. An expensive item would probably pay itself off and be cheaper in the long term simply due to better quality.

Crosses.
99% chance it’s performative.
I am convinced most people aren't religious, or at least agnostic. If they truly were they'd not be living like they are and wouldn't give a shit about anything but their holy book. I call it being alibi-religious.

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?
"Don't tread on me because it's really hot and I'm all sweaty in this getup - you could slip on the grease and hurt yourself."
-
Does a shirt worn upside down as shorts count as pants? A long sleeve?
I seriously thought about this and in my opinion, no. With it upside down, the head opening would be right at your privates making them more like pantalettes (old timey open-crotch underware).

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"

Too much so, im fact, since it started pouring down at one point!

Edit: What do you judge them for?
This is a german thing, but "Camp David" shirts are the first thing that come to mind. There is a good possibility the person wearing it is the most dense and arrogant person you'll ever meet.
Könnt ihr doch sicher bestätigen Germanbros, oder?

Camp David = the weird but friendly Boomer neighbour that turns full racist after three beers.

A certain little moustache was generally popular and harmless before Hitler came along, but after the war it forever became the Hitler moustache and shaving one's face in that style nowadays invites the comparison whether or not one means it that way.
wrote last edited by [email protected]TIL Trumps father wore a Hitler mustache until 1950.
After World War II, toothbrush variants were worn by a small number of notable individuals, e.g. American real-estate developer Fred Trump (who wore a split variant), and former president of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe (covering only the philtrum).
Trump wore a toothbrush mustache from c. 1935 to 1950, about when it fell out if fashion due yo associations with Adolf Hitler

old Tesla's yes. New Teslas are HORRIBLE people
In the UK our car number plates actually tell you when the car was first registered - the third and fourth digits are either the year or the year +50. Normally I object to this, since it was only introduced as the result of pressure from British Leyland to try and sell more cars, but it serves as a handy way of instantly categorising anyone with a, say, '23 or newer cuntmobile.

Arc'teryx (hardshell) jackets.
If you're walking around downtown you don't need it.
If you actually needed it you wouldn't be wearing your expensive gear downtown. -
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.
Ford makes (or at least made) and E-350 van. It can tow anything your truck can. And seat 11 people. And keep your equipment secured and safe from the elements. And it has a backup camera.

It's against flag code and is considered not a proper flag.
I mean, if it's on clothing, it's not a flag, it's a flag image. Ergo, the flag code doesn't really give a fuck.

What's your point? That thing is bigger than my pickup.

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.
I generally want good things for all people. However, modern conservatives in my neck of the woods have grown increasingly vile over the course of my lifetime. I like the idea that they might feel isolated because the ideas they champion are backward and negative. And because they seemingly delight in causing harm to others, especially groups who have less power.

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.
But the front/hood is much shorter in length. Also, people driving that type of van are much more likely to be doing so in a professional capacity and are significantly less likely to be asshole drivers fucking around with their phone while driving. People are bad drivers at baseline quite frequently, but if someone is on the job in a van used for commercial purposes, they're more likely to at least be paying attention and not speeding everywhere.
Edit: I marked up your image to illustrate the point made much more eloquently in the video. Because of the length of the hood, the truck has a much longer distance of road obstructed from view in front of it, and this is with a standard truck that doesn't have one of the very popular lift kits (and assuming that the driver is relatively tall.)

Wanna know the difference between a Harley and a lawn mower?
The lawn mower has a reason to sound like that.
I've heard part of the reason some people choose a Harley is because the sound makes them more noticeable in traffic, as a safety thing.
The merch is fucking stupid, but at least the noise does have a safety benefit, plenty of motorcycle riders get killed because other drivers didn't notice them -- good luck not noticing a Harley in close proximity.
-
what do you think about purses/bags with them?
I also have 2 frog bumper stickers and no other ones
Bags are very different to me than cars for some reason. They are more personal, perhaps, as one can usually see the person and the busy bag together.
Thinking about it, perhaps I see bumper stickers as impersonal and maybe even agressive (probably passive-aggressive even). A cute frog or two is vastly different to me than a collage of political sayings and it hardly matters if I happen to agree with the particular statements.
Maybe it’s a matter of taste or perhaps I feel disdain because it looks like political activity but is actually utterly worthless at changing minds?
-
What's your point? That thing is bigger than my pickup.
The point is that both of your points are factually incorrect.
