Fuck them right in the...?

It looks like someone crossbred a VW Bus with a panda bear then startled it.
- I mean, you gotta have a hobby 🤷
It's pretty disgusting that here in 2024 they would still use outdated and inappropriate terms like horsepower and foot-pounds.
- For some reason one of my calc classes in college used imperial instead of metric and it really highlighted the absurdity of it
- Footpounding is a legitimate, if waning, practice.
not a single gay or young person on whatever team decided the name lmao

or maybe there were some, giggling in the background
- We had a project once called Asset Analytics which the steering team decided to shorten to AssAnal. It lasted a couple of months until it was changed to metrics
  
  I bet a certain Analyst/Therapist was involved in that.
  
  I can barely imagine how funny that must have been
  
  They knew
- Some of these names must be handed to the higher-ups with pure malicious intent, I love it
  
  Not malitious - this is a case of chaotic good. If it's funny and harms noone, roll with it!
It's called an XBus now. Yes it's not better.

But this is actually a pretty cool ev, the bed is swappable.
- The next one will be called xbus 360, then xbus one, then one s...
- The day is saved, we found a totally not memable name for our vehicle.
- Would possibly create some confusion in Denmark where the public inter-region busses are called X-Bus..
- I don't get it. Please tell me the double entendere of "XBus."
  
  XXXbus
i don't know what bussy means and at this point I'm to afraid to ask.
- boy pussy, so just a man's ass
  
  I’ve also heard both "back" and "butt."
  
  thank you
  
  And then there's wussy, or woman bussy
  
  Ooooohhh 🤣
- "A calzone could also be called a pizzussy"
  
  i am learning so much today
  
  This is the funniest damn wiki entry I've ever seen.
  
  ...different uses of the suffix, such as the merging of "Margaret Thatcher" with "-ussy" to create the portmanteau Thatchussy.[2] Other examples include clussy (clown and pussy) and grussy (Grinch and pussy).[2]: 6
Just 20 HP? I need something that is able to survive while I'm farming. At least give us 40 HP.
- It has plenty of MP and protective spells, though..
  
  It's supposed to be a tank class, who decided to make it a mage?
- I think thats room for plenty members of parliament
- Don't worry, older tractors used to have 25Hp. You'll be fine.
  
  You speak like someone who never had a giant rat infestation in the cabbage patch not far from here
So how many people fit inside your ebussy?
- At least 7
  
  At once, or consecutively?
- All right! Shut up a second and I'll tell you! Jesus! I didn't freak out like this when you told me how many girls you fucked!
  
  Hey! my girlfriend fit 36 people in his ebussy!
20 Hit points for a car isn't much if we're going by traditional RPG metrics, but I suppose I'm not sure what the creators were using as a template when they made it.
- Depends on how traditional you want to get. The original metric was the number of 14" shells something could survive. Given that, 20 seems pretty good for a car.
  
  So the average human is, what, 0.05 HP?
- How do we know it's RPG and not RTS?
- But that attack... Nnngh.
They renamed it

- Truly a sad day in history
- The XBUSSY
I hate EV torque ratings. They're not even remotely comparable to ICE vehicles.

The power ratings for the eBussy don't adhere to SAE-J2908, btw.

Please at least use SAE-J2908.
- Where do they even measure this, is it at the wheels?
  
  You measure the bussy.
  
  Exactly my point. You get it.
It's X-bus nor ebusses

x bus official website site

I found it's a nice concept, manually remplaçable battery, modulable, light and long autonomy
- Is it really modular if it doesn't have lego compatible nubs
- remplaçable
  
  bom gia
- I was excited about it as well... in 2021. They're never going to build these and if/when they do, it will bomb hard. It has become way too expensive and there are cheaper real electric cars now. There isn't a market for these overpriced quads anymore. Only ones going to drive these are those with a death wish.
Either it’s max defensive and evasion, or it’s the glassiest glasscannon since power-trick Shuckle.
- I wonder what its typing is.
Finally, I can have a bussy.
Yeah, fuck those imperial units.

Lb-Ft, pfff ...
Me and the boys entering the eBussy:
I see someone was down bad for hatune miku
- She's real TO ME damnit!
Ebussy sounds like a dating or porn service for femboys
... I want one so badly now
- Down bad on the eBussy
- Do they come in Sailor Moon coloring?
Grab 'em by the...
- ... Charging cable because it's time to leave
Ich liebe die e-Busse
- Sehe auch kein Problem hier. Alle lieben doch Bussis
- eBussy hehe sounds like pussy
  
  Gen Z humor...
  
  (B)oy p(ussy)
  
  It’s a gay thing not a Gen Z humour thing
I don't understand the joke... send help.
- Couple of years ago the use of slang that consisted of making portmanteaus of the word "pussy" (using the suffix "-ussy", also word of the year 2022 IIRC) with other words rose. At first it was mostly for implying said thing was used as a pussy (thrussy: throat pussy, bussy: boy pussy) but then it evolved into a comedic way to refer to "hole of said thing" (chussy: hole in the chest as in pectum excavatum).
  
  In this case, this vehicle is called eBussy because it's a tiny electric bus. But due to the slang, it can also be interpreted as "electronic boy pussy (as in a guy's anus, for gay sex)".
  
  Oh, that's hilarious. Thank you very much.

  Thanks, that's pretty funny.
Torque is a stupid, meaningless figure in almost any situation, but particularly in a vehicle where there is a transmission involved.

  Are you the one overtightening all the bolts in my shop??
  
  Maybe.
It sounds cool
