Why not just take the money and get a non-nazi mobile?

This was a stupid purchase the first time. Learning Elon is a Nazi won't make this person smarter.

Will the price eventually hit 0 or is it asymptotic?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Eventually, Elon will pay people to take his "trucks."

No, as there will always be a lot of metal for scrap. What is the price of aluminium at your local scrapyard? That will give you an idea for the price floor.

Oh, I know this one! It's like the Hans im Glück (Hans in Luck / Variants) tale: Hans starts with a cow and ends up with a rock, through a series of "advantageous" swaps.

Because they are a Nazi. It’s not rocket science.

At least Nazi rockets were supposed to explode.

Swasticar Wankpanzers are among the most effective and modern ways to advertise that you are both single and really fucking horny.

It also advertises that one has a really tiny dick and is a total asswipe, which is the combined reason for the first part.

Wankpanzer is good, but I prefer Deplorean.
