PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

Among other things I've been profiled for..

Long hair
Earrings
Tattoos
The car/truck I drove (as in the kind, not that it had safety malfunctions)
The town I lived in, specifically that my kind was the freak
Being 17-18 and hanging out with 2 guys who were 15..reality is we'd been friends close to 10 years by then.

@TnShooter mine are all on my arms, 2 are covered by short sleeves..1 can stick out a little from a short sleeve..1 is on my forearm. I have no regrets myself

Yup, especially males back in the day were taught you don't talk about those things.

 

I was 1 of only 2 guys that had long hair in my high school.
Unless you knew me, you’d swear I was stoner.
But I wasn’t, Hell. I went to work at 15. Then at 18 (still in high school) went to work for a lumber company. I had the drug test to prove I wasn’t.

I think I’ve told the story once. But I got put through 4 of 5 drug test my first 6 months at the lumber yard. Finally the boss man said, we aren’t sending you any more. You got enough paid time off taking those damn drug screens.

I still had long hair then, and I don’t think the owner of the lumber yard was too keen on me at first.
My brother played baseball with the managers son, so that is how I got the job. Quite sure the owner would never have hired me. But eventually he took up with me. Hell, he even gave me ticket to the University Of Tennessee football games when him and his wife didn’t go.

 

Being a millennial
Being autistic
By my own aunt for refusing to go to church on Christmas Eve one time because I find church boring and wanted to stay home and watch TV
Not wearing a face mask properly during the pandemic
Driving a Japanese truck

 

I've looked like a stoner at times, but in reality I've only smoked weed once in my entire life and have never touched any other drugs...

 

I choose not to partake in those activities. (I’ve seen where it can, but not always, leads)
But I have no problem at all with others that do.
Some of my best friends were/are addicts or alcoholics.

I don’t care what others do so long as it doesn’t affect me.

I’ve always said, “You do you. I’ll do me. And we will all get along just fine”.

 

I smoked it once, with a friend/coworker I trusted; I would not smoke weed now because of the fentanyl they're putting in it, among other things, and I've also heard that it can lead to psychosis.

 

I have no idea. I’ve only known of one person to die from fentanyl.
And as far as anyone knew, he had touched drugs since the 1990’s.
It was a friends brother. The family was in shock. He either hid it well, or people failed to notice it.

I don’t like to spend money on things period. So I guess I got that going for me.
About the worst thing I do is drink too many energy drinks. And even, then I buy the cheap off brand ones for 99c.

 

Apparently you were no longer interested in BEING her vibrating dildo so what else could the poor girl do? LOL

I think I would strongly suggest you never take up motorcycling. People really ARE out to kill you when you're on a bike!

 

I wish she wouldn't spend government-provided money on a vibrator, but it's really her business what she buys. The disgusting part is that she casually texted one of my friends a picture of this hot pink vibrating dildo butt plug thing when she bought it as if it were a shirt or a piece of jewelry.

 

Are you the one who got hit head-on by a Civic on your bike while on vacation?

 

Yep. That was me.

Bought another FJR1300 exactly one week later to replace the destroyed one.

 

Just can't help myself but laugh about this one.

Hope all of your shots are up to date after you were hooking up with that!

 

Yup! It's been almost a year and I'm fine; I think she's gonna be dead before the end of the decade from complications of diabetes though.

I really want to move to Florida, for numerous reasons; I would miss having seasons like we have in Pennsylvania, but I've got family in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. My friend and I are Fluid-Filming my truck this Sunday, so if I brought it to Florida, it would probably last forever if a hurricane doesn't wash it away.

 

You can have Florida. No fun there for motorcycles. Too much traffic and the only good turns are the on/off ramps for their highways. Humidity in the summer would be killer. I have some friends there and most of them are planning on relocating when they retire.
Georgia and South Carolina wouldn't be too awful. Seashore on the eastern side and some nice mountainous terrain to the western end of the state.

 

Low property taxes, no state income tax, no car inspections, and some things I can't talk about publicly on TW are pretty big incentives; As stated above, I've got family in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina.

That's ironic that your friends in Florida are planning on relocating when they retire, because it seems like people tend to relocate to Florida when they retire. I unfortunately haven't been to Florida since May 2011, when my dad took me to Key West for Memorial Day Weekend.

In June 2020, I went to a car meet in Fort Washington, PA and there was a 1992 Toyota Celsior (JDM version of the Lexus LS400); I believe I've told you about a former friend of mine from Hong Kong who's into Rolls-Royces, who turned out to be a judgmental asshole...

He likes the Lexus LS, and I sent him pictures of the black Celsior from the car meet. In at least one photo, you can see my face reflected in the black paint and I wasn't wearing mask. It was well over ninety degrees and there was nobody around, so even back in late spring-early summer 2020, I think the transmission rate for COVID was pretty low in that particular situation. Nonetheless, he immediately noticed my maskless face reflected in the paint, and asked why I wasn't wearing a mask; I told him, as stated above, that I was outside, it was sweltering, and that there was nobody around. Mask mandates are obviously a lot stricter in Hong Kong, and not only could he not comprehend why I wasn't wearing a mask, but he seemed insulted and believed that I was putting other people in danger. We argued about this for a bit before the issue was dropped.

This same guy also berated me when I told him that I did not wear a mask when driving alone in my Tacoma...

He did ultimately lay off on the issue of mask-wearing because he knows that I have sensory issues that stem from wearing masks for extended period of time, but I still ended up severing ties with him for good in January 2021 after he said some incredibly insulting stuff to me that crossed a line.

 

I took the stickers and magnets in question off of my truck last night, because I believe they were the primary cause of road rage incidents where another motorist was harassing me for seemingly no reason. They now reside happily on the old refrigerator in my parents' garage!

 

Luckily, I used protection, but that is definitely advice I will heed from here on out...

A bit of similar advice is "Never bang anyone crazier than you are!"
