Well, I would say the test results were conclusive, if nothing else.

    If I had a nickel every time a Cybertruck driver re-enacted the end of The Perfect Storm while casting themselves as George Clooney, I would have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

    Comedy gold.

      I’d say weird except it was advertised as a hybrid boat (and would have been advertised as a rocket or plane too if he’d thought of it) so like, doing what you are told it can do is not stop weird.

        doing what you are told it can do is not [too] weird.

        It is when it sounds unlikely and the ones making the claim are notorious for constant embellishments and flat out falsehoods

        They key word there is “advertised”. Remember, bonless chicken wings don’t have to be boneless. In the US, if your advertisement isn’t lieing, you aren’t trying.

      😂 Some of the time, the jokes are hard to shoehorn into the articles. This time? The jokes practically wrote themselves
