“I can’t give this thing away.” - Guy who is asking $89,000 for a used vehicle that now sells new for $72,500.
Don’t buy vehicles from a company led by an unstable Nazi CEO, dipshit.
Also, “give away” typically means $0. $89000 is to the best of my knowledge larger than $0. I’ll bet he could give it away, but he doesn’t want to do that.
“giving it away” can also mean selling it cheap.
Edit: damn I’m not defending this price, just explaining the metaphorical phrase. Chill yall
No, “giving away” means giving something for free. A better way to say it would be “practically or as if I’m giving it away”.
Of course, in daily discourse you might say “I gave it away” instead of “I got rid of it” or “I sold it” since it sounds nicer and is probably more informative when someone asks you “What happened to your car?” and you want to mean I gave it to someone else and didn’t take any money for it, not when you post it for sale on Facebook Marketplace.
The fact that people list “giveaways” where you pay for anything other than shipping, tax, etc. does not change what the words mean.
And even if we’re cutting it close with “practically giving away”, the max price I’d give on such a “given away car” is $500. Anything more is cutting your losses.
$90k is 180 times that amount. Does that mean he wants to give the car away 180 times?
It’s the same underlying wordplay.
I’ll shit on anyone for buying a cybertruck but you’re being very pedantic.
I am giving away the chance to read this comment. Since you have already done so, where should I send the $89,000 bill? Or are you thieving scum?
So there’s this thing called exaggeration…
Going from $89k to “give it away” is not exaggeration, it’s whiny pissboy bullshittery.
“can’t give this thing away unless I lower the price to probably $79k. Sucks.”
A brand new AWD CT from Tesla is $79,990.
Headline is clickbait. Seller is a whinger. Trash all round. Saved you a click.
Sorry to ask, but what is a “whinger”?
Whiner. Whinging is a synonym
I believe it means “whiner”. As in one who whines and complains.
I don’t know where @CurlyWurlies4All@slrpnk.net hails, but I just know this because I am a dad, which means I watch Bluey, and sometimes the dad on Bluey will tell the kids to “quit whinging”.
from the tardygrade’s perspective is it playing a large violin or a normal-sized cello?
Size-wise, relative to him, it’s much closer to a violin than a cello, maybe slightly larger. So a viola would be the best fit. I think the picture is of a cello though, just sized strangely.
Edit: that image is strange. It’s really popular, but bad. He’s playing the strings from the wrong side of the bridge. How do you get that wrong?
Because of the size difference between humans and tardigrades, it’s hard for tardigrades to attend music lessons and otherwise learn about human musical instruments, so give him a chance, he’s probably trying his best.
It’s impressive enough that a creature without thumbs is able to hold the bow in the first place, and you want to criticise him for how he’s holding his cellolin?
He’s holding the bow perfectly though, its just weird of him to miss the bridge
I can’t give this thing away
Sus
The Cybertruck owner listed his truck for sale for $89,000.
The same dual-motor Cybertruck AWD variant now starts at $80,000. However, starting in 2025, the vehicle qualifies for the $7,500 point of sale tax credit. This further lowers the starting price to $72,500.
Tesla is also now offering a $2,000 discount to anyone who applies a referral code when buying the vehicle. That further lowers the starting price to $70,500.
LOLOL.
Everyone expects top dollar for used shit these days.
This fucking article goes on 3 more paragraphs after that about how great the current offerings from Tesla are. Feels like the whole thing is just a Cybertruck sales puff piece in disguise.
Off topic: it looks waaaaay better in black. 😳
You can paint a turd gold too.
