Say what?!?!?

No professional contractor worth his name is going to be seen at a job
site in a prissy truck like the Turdra any more than they're going to
be buying their lumber on a Saturday morning at Home Depot. These are
suburbanite pseudo-trucks driven by white-collar types who are
probably there to get some Behr paint or a Black & Decker drill,
something else the pro's wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

Jeez man, what planet are you from anyway?
