Communism is exactly the opposite of that. You're thinking of late stage capitalism.

Or I could do the work myself. Donating to charity is just throwing money at the rich.

It's cheaper if I do the work myself, which is the only kind of work worthy of respect.

If I had that kind of money, I'd buy ruined, exploited land just to restore it; regrow a clearcut forest for instance. Then just give it back to the native tribe who lived there centuries ago. I have always wished I could do that.

Just feed birds next to the showrooms.

I can wrestle a modestly sized gator on land. I know I can catch certain nonvenomous snakes. Catching turtles and tortoises is pretty trivial, aside from snapping types.

Size really does count for a lot. So does a creature's inability to bend enough to bite you if you grab it a certain way. Finally, how willing are you to deal with some pain? Because you're probably gonna bleed.

People can get out of prison. Full pardons sometimes.

Correct. Most didn't survive. Of those that have, very few are in excellent condition. Of those few, almost none are all original. Those rare few are collectable now. Furthermore, it was featured prominently in a hit TV show. Rarity and notoriety will make a very, very few Cybertrucks into collectibles. It's probably going to be a while though.

Rarity and notoriety drive collectability.

Yep. My dad believes you can cure a venomous snake bite, ANY species, by giving yourself an electric shock, preferably from a spark plug. Works equally effectively (it doesn't work, don't bother) for literally any insect bite. He also believes witches are eating babies in the forest nearby. Needless to say, he doesn't understand evolution either. He falls for scams left and right, always has.

Really sweet guy though.

Well obviously more slices = more pizza.

Well, that's all water under the bridge now.

It might slide into the doorframe with a sci-fi hiss and recognize your approach to unlock, but it's a 100% manual, electric sliding door. If you walk out of your basic apartment and don't manually close the door when you leave, it WILL be open when you get back. It'll stay open the whole time you're home. Who ever saw a manual, powered, sliding door? If you didn't realize this was a dystopia, there you go. That's hysterical. I wonder if they set it up so you'd get burglarized for neglecting basic security. And if not, why not?!

Whoever thought that up is an evil genius.
