Conspiracy theory: The reason we have the Chicken Tax is to keep the Hilux out of the US because it’s too effective a weapon against the military

It is so smaller more competitively priced and actually usable trucks stay out of your country

That’s too credible for me to believe

Top gear put a Hilux up against a 1984 chevy half 4x4 they found on craigslist. The old chevy won, only vehicle running at the end.

That’s Top Gear America, which is very much not Top Gear. Plus they didn’t run the Hilux head-to-head. I bet none of those guys have even driven a Hilux.

John_McMurray ,

Anyways, point has been made, and proven. They did run head to head. Hilux was the runner up, 2nd last to break. Watched the episode years ago. Now I know you’re thinking of what amounted to a hilux ad on the original top gear. It’s not really true to life. No 85 Chev half tons in England either.

John_McMurray ,

You gotta remember hiluxes are just a quarter ton truck. Yeah they’re tough enough, so were old Datsuns. It’s never really mechanics and hard core off roaders that fanboy hiluxes, and those old chevys were fucking tough.

No they aren’t. The number that’s increasing is a price tag, not cash. That’s why no one’s wallet or bank account gets bigger when that same number goes down.

stormeuh ,

Who do you think the profit of increasing the price tag goes to? The workers in the factory to help them deal with inflation, or the rich shareholders?

damnedfurry ,

Who do you think the profit of increasing the price tag goes to?

Whoever sells the appreciated asset to someone else, who was willing to buy it at the new, higher price.

And if they don’t sell, there is no profit, it’s still unrealized.

Zink ,

Unrealized on paper, but not in a practical sense when they can borrow against those assets to access their wealth tax-free.

damnedfurry ,

borrow against those assets to access their wealth tax-free.

…until they pay the loan back, you mean.

Hell, loans better be tax free, it’s not income if you have to pay it back.

P.S. Some food for thought: if workers’ labor is being ‘skimmed’ by employers, making workers into a source of profit as a result, then why would a company ever downsize as a measure against financial difficulty? Why would any business ever fire anyone who’s doing their job, if worker = profit for the business?

I need flushable and non-flushable wet wipes on this.

Edit: I did not know that in some parts of the world “flushable wet wipes” and “wet toilet paper” are not synonymous and learned that e.g. the USA has a problem with companies being allowed to advertise their wet wipes as “flushable” not because it is okay to flush them but because one is able to.

B1naryB0t ,

It’s not recommended to flush any wet wipes and companies that put flushable get away with it because you physically can flush the product

shalafi ,

I can flush 'em. God knows how fast the septic tank would fill up though.

FreshLight , (edited )

I do not know where you are from but if the flushable wet wipe, that is called “wet toilet paper”(translated) here, almost completely falls apart without the support of a sheet of normal tp, I am pretty sure that it’s okay to flush it. Feel free to check out this product page.Edit: The link seems to be down now. No idea why. There are a lot of other examples, though. Here’s the archived link.

LwL ,

Those are probably fine, yeah. Though germany has just as much of an issue with “flushable” wet wipes to my knowledge. I’ve certainly never encountered actually flushable ones in the wild.

Really cool product though, needs to become more widespread (or just bidets lol)

balderdash9 OP ,

where would you put them

Jessica , (edited )

The trash? That’s what I do. They create fatbergs as strong as stone that destroy your cities infrastructure: m.youtube.com/watch?v=O4ECz4NPPf8

peopleproblems ,

Ah so it’s not my problem it’s the city tax payers problem. Oh wait

FreshLight ,

They create fatbergs (…) that destroy your cities infrastructure

So it would be in one of the evil panels for you as well?

Kusimulkku ,

You put the shit wipes in the trash? Nasty

ASeriesOfPoorChoices ,

also, the shit TP goes in the trash as well, in most of the world.

(Yes, most of the world doesn’t have American-level poop plumbing and processing)

Kusimulkku ,

That’s nasty too

(Yes, most of the world doesn’t have American-level poop plumbing and processing)

And definitely not the level we have

FreshLight ,

I’d replace lawful neutral with the image from lawful good and use lawful good to add one or two packages of wet toilet paper.

The non-flushable wet wipes alongside an empty roll could get added to the chaotic evil panel.

And the chaotic neutral panel doesn’t get anything.

pancakes ,
@pancakes@sh.itjust.works avatar

They’re both neutral evil since neither are flushable.

FreshLight ,

Doesn’t the problem stem from the fact that they are flushable?

phorq , in Alignment Chart Shitpost

I would swap lawful good and neutral good honestly. Neutral good technically has more toilet paper available, and you can’t always expect the roll in the holder to be brand new.

partial_accumen ,

Its not just about quantity but effort too.

  • Lawful good has of a full roll on the spindle with no backup is technically the minimum good. No points deducted for that, but no points earned.
  • Neutral good still has a partial roll on the spindle, but they also went to the extra effort to provide an additional backup roll. Extra points for extra effort of supplying an additional roll when they didn’t have to.
Battle_Masker ,
@Battle_Masker@lemmy.world avatar

I’d change lawful good to chaotic good and make lawful good a combination of it and chaotic neutral. that’s what I’ve always done at work when it was my turn to clean the bathrooms

QualifiedKitten , in Alignment Chart Shitpost

I am very much “lawful good” to “lawful neutral” in general, but when I’m fostering kittens, the TP has to go in the cabinet above the toilet. Where does that land?

CaptainEffort ,

Kittens truly bring out the evil in all of us

When you have a cat lawful evil really helps with “finding out the mf had a lot of fun during the night and completely destroyed this brand new roll”

ChicoSuave , in Alignment Chart Shitpost

Chaotic evil would be a box of socks. Will it clog the toilet? Will it be effective? Will any even be used? Who cares, it’s not my problem.

KISSmyOS ,

Chaotic evil would just be normal toilet paper.
I’m purely selfish and only care about my own advantage, so I sure as hell don’t want you to smear your shit wherever when you’re sitting on the toilet in my house.

Socks, sandpaper or duct tape would be “stupid evil”.
