    Super Trucker: also like Ditch Bait (or ditch beoch) with the added flair of knowing it all, letting everyone know it, and bullying everyone out of their way then soon being found Out of Service (OOS) at the local chicken house or hiding in the sleeper with flashers on just barely off the road waiting for a tow truck ride. Typically means Stupid Trucker in this strange new modern age of sarcasm and apathy and we all know you can't fix stupid, but on the other hand it can often lead to healthy rounds of uncontrollable laughter after the fact while talking about it at the counter of the next Nuke'n'Puke (Greasy Spoon or fine eating establishment directly attached to the Truck Stop). We've all got our own humbling stories so don't let 'em fool you with that clean record nonsense. Some just have better lawyers than others. :biggrin_25525:

    I believe it's a reference to the fact that homosexuals started using them as their hangouts at one time. Sorta like the bath houses in ancient Greece (or was that Rome?)
