I like it. It does make sense.

I think I've only been guilty of this once or twice

You speak the truth so often. This leads me to believe that there is indeed a collective of people on the internet that aren't (to put in a rather comical way) "weenies"

Motion to add 'Its a perfectly normal thing to do' to the list, your honour? BV

I'll allow it... I want to see where this is going.

Can't say I've heard 'dumps like a truck' before, but I'm on board!

... Wait, am I? Hm...

I am fairly certain it was born and died entirely in "The Thong Song" by Sisqo. Either way it has bugged me for years as it seems like a very bad way to compliment someone's butt.

As a rough guess I assumed it had something to do with butts.

Oh is that what it means. It sounded more like a way of describing someone's abnormally large... well, dumps. Of the sort one deposits into a toilet. Granted, I haven't had the benefit of hearing it in context, but that was my immediate reaction.

You must be joking.

Well I'm not REALLY angry about it if that's what you mean. I just think it's goofy.

That was for the dude above me. FA hiccuped. I can't believe people have never heard that term or can't put 2 and 2 together.

Yeah, as fun and clever as euphemisms are why can't it the phrase "you have a nice ass" be honest and earnest?

Now to wait for someone to disagree in the hopes that everyone will reply with "You're just jealous."

what's your opinion on the use of "they're just gelatinous fruit-based preserves" in its stead?

Hm. I am conflicted. I like saying that *I* am 'jelly' of things because it just sounds adorable. I picture a little gelatian mold with a cute little face on it.

However, accusing others of being 'jelly' suffers from the same problems described by its parental phrase.

I'm really happy you said "quibble"!

What does "dumps like a truck" mean anyway?

Ask Sisqo.

Thighs like what?

Best response, right here

I think you need to sing it again.

lol

All night long?

Just looked it up: http://www.urbandictionary.com/defi.....ke%20a%20truck

Basically means big ass.

Guys like what what what what

I have dumps like a truck, but only after Mexican Beans and Steak Cutlets night.

The title made me star singing

Though rants are fun to have.

You're just jealous of those people that use it.

What I hate about the phrase " you're just jealous" is that: 1. it makes an assumption of what the person is feeling and treats the person as if it's factual, as in, will always think any hostility from the person being called jealous will ALWAYS be jealous. 2. It's usually completely wrong and 3. People who use that usually have a bit of a god complex, they think whatever it is the person is mad about is purely because that person is not like them or does not have it, so instead of feeling bad about doing something or owning something maybe they shouldn't, they get a sense of power and greatness for having it, making them feel more above you and missing the point entirely .

As Vanilla Ice would say, "Yep yep."

Drop that zero, get with the gyro.

I knew I could count on you.

Sometimes I feel like saying 'lord I just don't care', but you got the love I need to see me through

oh wait, that's not Vanilla Ice at all

You're just jealous that you didn't come up with the phrase first =P *runs for cover*

Yeah I can't count how many times I've seen random rant journals about other people and half the post contain that phrase in some way or form.

I actually haven't encountered "Dumps like a truck."

Yes.

It happens. Sometimes someone really IS jealous. But lots of times, person A dislikes person B because person B is a douche, not because they're lusting after their talent. That's a good enough reason, I think!

LET ME SEE THAT TH-*whack*

Seeing this phrase being used seriously in Raine Dog was the first sign that it was going to turn out to be crap.

Oh DC Simpson, you are old enough to know better! Tsk tsk.

I especially loathe this phrase when connected with cases of tracing/art theft/manips/etc. There's not even anything to possibly be jealous of in that case.

I love these so much. May be because I feel the same way most of the time.

Pie for pope.

Is that Reginald from Nedroid in the jury?

"Dumps like a truck".... that sounds disgusting...

You know what always pisses me off when ever someone says it about an artist or their work? "They have way too much time on their hands."

Because I'm sure the person saying just TOTALLY spends their time in more meaningful ways than creating passionate intricate peases of unique art.

Er...pieces

Yeah, me too! It sounds one or two steps removed from "Hey, I work for a living so how dare you have a hobby?!"

"Ma'am, if you insist on not wearing pants to court, could you at least close your jacket?"

Baby move your butt, butt, butt... I like to sing it again!

We should come up with a counter statement. Something equal in simplicity, while still getting across that the previous statement is invalid, and that the person who said has lost footing in the argument for having resorted to making it. Or something.

there really is a lot to say about "dumps like a truck"

You just coveting

What? ..What?

B-but Pie! It's a perfect way to dismiss someone and make yourself feel good without ever having to admit they might have a point!

I see this a lot everywhere, Youtube is the place where it's use is most rampant. I saw it literally thousands of times and only 3 were of actual things said out of actual jealousy.
What indignates me the most is, the self condescending meaning of this phrase: anything said negative about someone is absolutely irrelevant and should be ignored as any negative criticism is done out of spite jealousy of their superior [insert whatever the shit they think they are better at or have more that they most likely don't]. So instead of seeing their mistakes, they can't really believe that anything they do is wrong so if people don't like, is because they are too good at something and that's why they get hate.

I could take you seriously if you didn't go to court after raiding Barry Manilow's wardrobe.

We use the 'dumps like a truck' phrase at the casino i work at, and it fits, so what's the issue :IIIII

Can we also get rid of the term "haters"? Which is more commonly used to mean "person who has genuine grievance which I do not care to address and will dismiss by downplaying their arguments and suggest they're just negatively opposed for the sake of being negatively opposed"?

I'VE GOT A FERRET STICKING UP MY NOSE

Haters gonna hate

Motion accepted, counselor. Next on the docket, saying "you're a *blank* nazi!"

I don't see the problem, then again I only hear "they're just jealous" from moms.

Most people just call them "faggot-ass-tards" then proceed to get in a fight with someone that corrected their grammar.

You're running out of soap-box material luv!
My favorite being "Grown ass man!"

I will -never- run out of soapbox material!

What, nothing about YOLO?

I hate the phrase "We can't judge".

go atty kitty go!!

"Dumps like a truck"? First time I've heard that one. I'm gonna assume it's as dirty as I think and then just forget I ever heard it. =P

History lesson

Watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtNyRC0ZpMc

Now you know

...and this is supposed to be flattering to women with large posteriors?

Sometimes, I do not get humanity at all. O.o;;

Brah, you jelly? =3

guys like "whut? whut? whut?"

baby move your butt, butt, butt.

I THINK I'LL SING IT AGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN

I favor curry...and rather than saying " they're just jealous." I say " dickery is lurking about." It's more non partial...and let's me wuss out/man up all at the same time. *nodnod*

Baby if think It'll be all right/ I could just crash here tonight...

You're just Jello... delicious jiggly jello..

Your Honour I will not only prove that comparing asses to brick houses is not only inaccurate, but that they aren't even made of brick most of the time.

Except for that one time.

That was a good house.

...about sums up my feelings on the matter

I love it when people can't even spell it right.
Case and point: I've been told "Your just gelatinous." Which somehow sounds even more insulting! :P

This just made me play the thong song. Ah, good times from long ago. :D XDDD I love not just this pic, but the comments it attracted x3

Pie is fucking shameless about her cleavage, in court of all places.

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

*gives you a fluttershy for your efforts.

OBJECTION!
uh...

I discovered the phrase "thought terminating cliche" recently and it perfectly sums up so many intellectually bankrupt internet catchphrases like this one.

I find myself using it all the time now as a simple shorthand that circumvents the need to provide a longer form argu- oh crap

So what side? Team Edward or Jacob?
