    GAAAAAAHHHH!

    The only saving grace of TruckNutz was that I couldn’t see them in the dark!

  2. Special Agent Jack Mehoff says at 9:46 am, October 7th, 2008

    Oh good, everyones nutz glow red after shaving. Whew!

  3. greatgooglymoogly says at 9:48 am, October 7th, 2008

    I thought that belly-butt guy got another implant or something. Glow in the dark belly-butt, yay!

  4. magic titty says at 9:49 am, October 7th, 2008

    Haha. Aren’t those the glowing trucknutz from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom?

  5. CrunchyKnee says at 9:55 am, October 7th, 2008

    It is officially the end of times.

    Selah.

  6. Dientes says at 9:55 am, October 7th, 2008

    These will go great with the Street FX on my Civic.

  7. WagTehGod says at 9:56 am, October 7th, 2008

    You’re braking my balls, Wonkette.

  8. Juan McMaverick says at 9:58 am, October 7th, 2008

    I wonder what Rich Lowry would say about these here, illuminated testes.

  9. CankleBiter says at 9:59 am, October 7th, 2008

    Best alt-text ever.

  10. Serolf Divad says at 10:01 am, October 7th, 2008

    But would they look good on a snow mobile?

  11. O-kay.

    Good pumpkin-carving pattern, though. Hm.

  12. Tommy Says Soooo says at 10:02 am, October 7th, 2008

    If you stare closely, I think you see a kitty. Why a kitty is standing behind translucent man-danglers is beyond me, but there you have it.

  13. Cool. Priktonite.

  14. El Bombastico says at 10:07 am, October 7th, 2008

    This will send the Dow skyrocketing up another 150 points.

  15. …but can they play Free Bird?

  16. Delicious says at 10:11 am, October 7th, 2008

    I think this is what Sarah Palin means by “exceptional America.”

    Yes, indeedy.

  17. ManchuCandidate says at 10:13 am, October 7th, 2008

    That’s a pair of hot nutz!

  18. Iggy Plop says at 10:19 am, October 7th, 2008

    economic collapse? check. charismatic muslin presidential candidate poised to take control? check. red glowing truck nutz? double check.

    it’s official. the apocalypse is upon us.

  19. Gopherit v2.0 says at 10:22 am, October 7th, 2008

    Yay! Sara is back!

    Do you ever tell your family about us and the glory of your job?

  20. If they’re orange they are good for Halloween. Strap some to your eight year old and tell everyone he’s going as a rural southern Ford F-150.

  21. Perfect for my Mini

  22. NoWireHangers says at 10:39 am, October 7th, 2008

    Can’t you just hold a flashlight up to your balls and get the same affect?

  23. Chuck Fildren says at 10:42 am, October 7th, 2008

    Ah! That’s fucking scary! Truly these are the testicles of the Devil!

  24. Gopherit v2.0 says at 10:43 am, October 7th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Maybe with a halogen, but that gives you a wicked contact burn if you aren’t careful.

    Not that I….nevermind.

  25. QuestionEvil says at 10:51 am, October 7th, 2008

    Shouldn’t those be blue?

  26. Chicken Smack says at 10:59 am, October 7th, 2008

    I’ll be damn. TruckNutz are, apparently, their own meme.

    *sigh*

  27. btwbfdimho says at 11:02 am, October 7th, 2008

    Perfect for my bicycle’s seat.

  28. HuskyMescan says at 11:05 am, October 7th, 2008

    Even the nutz have left-leaning bias. jesus christ!

  29. Truculent says at 11:05 am, October 7th, 2008

    All I can say to those who complain that America is no longer the innovation and industrial leader of the world — Kiss our Nutz

  30. “Yeah Ima over the road trucker carrying quite a load”

  31. ProgHead777 says at 11:13 am, October 7th, 2008

    I have the most unsettling feeling that your nutz are staring at me.

  32. This is what E.T.’s testicles looked like.

  33. President Beeblebrox says at 11:15 am, October 7th, 2008

    I thought the right nut hangs lower, not the left nut. Unless, that is, the TruckNutz are viewed as if the wearer is facing away from the truck, such that his peen would be the truck hitch… oh, never mind.

  34. PublicPretender says at 11:16 am, October 7th, 2008

    I see a holy vision in those nutz. It’s just like when I picked a booger that looked exactly like Pope Boniface III or was it the II, I disremember.

  35. PublicPretender says at 11:23 am, October 7th, 2008

    From the great singer/songwriter C.W. McCall (Anybody want to read my “Convoy, a Broadway Musical” adaptation?):

    It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
    And a Kenworth pullin’ logs
    Cab-over Pete with a reefer on
    And a Jimmy haulin’ hogs
    We’s headin’ for bear on Eye-one-O
    ’bout a mile outta Shakeytown
    I says “Pigpen, this here’s Rubber Duck”
    “And I’m about to put the hammer down”

    (’cause we got a little ole convoy rockin’ thru the night)
    (Yeah, we got a little ole convoy, ain’t she a beautiful sight?)
    (Come on and join our convoy, ain’t nothin’ gonna get in our way)
    (We gonna roll this truckin’ convoy ‘cross the USA)
    (Convoy)

    Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
    had some very shiny ‘nads
    and if you ever saw them
    you would be completely glad
    All of the other reindeer
    went around with glands so dark
    They wouldn’t let poor Rudolph
    roughhouse with them in the park

    Then one foggy Xmas eve
    Santa came to say
    Rudolph with your plums so bright
    We need you as a tail light

    Then all the reindeers loved him
    They’re brown-nosers, let’s face that fact
    Rudolph the red nose reindeer
    glows all the way from ‘rack to back!

  37. OzoneTom says at 11:28 am, October 7th, 2008

    If they would alternate between red and blue flashes we would have a great replacement for the Drudge
    flashing light, dog on it!

    Whoops, I didn’t mean to bring Santorum into the discussion.

  38. 2druk2phluq says at 11:31 am, October 7th, 2008

    Really, seeing this is my fault. I should have known something like this would happen if I clicked on Wonkette. It’s like Lucy and the football and Charlie Brown, like the Presidency and the White House and John McCain, like tax money and domestic spending and voters, like circus and children and Michael…

  39. Gopherit v2.0 says at 11:39 am, October 7th, 2008

    Garble: Best. Haloween. Costume. EVER.

  40. bushsbunghole says at 11:45 am, October 7th, 2008

    I wonder if Bristol and Levi are registered at BrakeNutz.com?

  41. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:46 am, October 7th, 2008

    They’re BEAUTIFUL.

  42. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:57 am, October 7th, 2008

    And holy hell the description of them is just flat out secksie!

    “WHAT I KNOW ABOUT BRAKE NUTS”

    “There was a brand called TruckNutz out of Florida that were perfectly symmetrical and smooth. There was a brand called Your Nutz out of Santee California that were wrinkled with veins and one nut hung a little lower. There were some that looked like bulls balls out of Bullhead City Arizona. Then there were some that looked just like the Your Nutz truck nuts called Bumper Nuts, but they were made of aluminum. The BullsBalls brand were just a bit larger, but much heavier and more costly.”

    We are all brake nutz now. This dood knows his Truck NUTZ and therefore deserves business from all of us. Buy your brake nutz, today!

  43. JadedDIssonance says at 12:00 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Servo: only when you squeeze them.

    I’ve seen 2 pairs of Ghetto Truck Nutz (KHROME BAYBEE) hanging off of escalades here in Chi. These brakenutz need blingee.

  44. I must be very unobservant, because until your pic here, I was completely unaware of exactly what “Truck Nuts” or “Break Nuts” were. Sigh. I do stupid things when I drive, like pay attention to what the brain dead drivers around me are doing so I can avoid being killed.

  45. shortsshortsshorts says at 12:07 pm, October 7th, 2008

    shoeho: I apologize to all of you for jamming this post with shortsylike comments, but how can you not know what Truck Nutz are? Are you a communist? Do you paint everything pinko and wait fer yer quota to be met everyday? Truck Nutz are a part of the American dream, er nightmare, whichever you prefer.

  46. Gopherit v2.0 says at 12:21 pm, October 7th, 2008

    shoeho: Now, of course, you can blame wonkette for your almost-inevitable future accident whilst scanning every passing truckopotamus for a set of these beauties.

  47. PrairiePossum says at 12:28 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Can the lights be changed to red and green? If so, I want a couple dozen to decorate my christmas tree.

  48. Hedley Lamar says at 12:33 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Do they come in blue?

  49. PublicPretender says at 12:39 pm, October 7th, 2008

    There’s a brake nutz video, with audio commentary. Left turn signal - left nut blinkies (assume you are facing the nutz), right turn signal - right nut blinkies.

  50. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 12:43 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Great, now all I can picture is Sara buried under all the glowing trucknutz sent in by Wonketteers..

    Gopherit v2.0: And imagine how much more fun you can have with the 12 volt strapped to you to keep them glowing?

  51. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 12:58 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Wait a minute, Sarah. Why didn’t you mention in the article that there is an actual movie of the trucknutz in action on the brakenutz site? That’s the story!

  52. GoshDarnitSarahPalinCom says at 1:01 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Someone should Tea Bag Sarah Palin with these nuts.

  53. GoshDarnitSarahPalinCom says at 1:02 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Someone should Tea Bag Sarah Palin with these nuts!

  54. btwbfdimho says at 1:26 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Lionel Hutz Esq.: Excuse me but our editor is Sara, not Sarah.

  55. shortsshortsshorts: I drizes very small but powerful furein car. Has to make sur monstertruks do now squeesh meez be4 I kin getz out uf way. No timez to dwell on nutz.

    Gopherit v2.0: Thankyou, thankyouverymuch!

  56. StrangelyBrown says at 2:06 pm, October 7th, 2008

    “I’ll be right here, Ell-i-ott.”

  57. Gopherit v2.0 says at 2:23 pm, October 7th, 2008

    StrangelyBrown: Thank you. Another childhood memory thrashed beyond recognition.

  58. Weeping Jesus says at 1:57 am, November 12th, 2008

    11/11/08 was the official date of TruckNutz ascendancy. All your nutz are belong to us.
