Nuts? Like in anaphylactic shock nuts? I don't get it

There's a thing called truck nuts. It's a rubber ballsack that hangs from the trailer hitch.

No way. You're making it up

Edit: OMG why didn't I die before knowing that

It's always good to witness a lucky 10,000 situation

The two men sold Truck Nuts through the late 1990s and 2000s, competing both in the market and in private, exchanging angry phone calls and emails. This conflict escalated into public relations wars, social media conflicts, posts on review sites, blog attack posts, and finally to legal cease and desist orders. Vice News published an article about the feud titled "Balls Out: The Weird Story of the Great Truck Nuts War".

I am so not surprised

That was step 1. Step 2 is the fact that now you’ll see them everywhere.

I don't live in the US, so probably no
