Woman Posts Pics Of Her ‘Slashed Tire’ On Twitter, But Someone Quickly Proves She’s Lying And It’s Hilarious
Nothing ruins your day like finding slashed tires on your vehicle. And then finding out that it wasn’t actually slashed, it just gave up on life because you refused to change it. And then continuing to say it was cut anyway.
Conservative activist and chronic attention seeker Laura Loomer recently took to Twitter to inform the world that a dry, rotting car tire on her jeep had been savagely brutalized. That’s right. Someone was mad enough at her to leave a slashed tire, but not all of them – just one, multiple times. It’s a harrowing story, except for the fact that Laura’s bluff was humiliatingly busted by one car-savvy commentator, which unleashed a relentless stream of car memes, spin-off Twitter accounts for the fallen tire, and even a fake GoFundMe page that showed Laura supposedly raising cash for a new tire AND car (which, sadly, has now been taken down).
Poor Laura tried to recover her pride, but alas, she only fueled the fire. She may have failed at creating a publicity stunt this time, but at least the rest of us learned an important lesson from it all – don’t drive on tires from 2006. Just don’t do it. Find out what went down below, and tell us what you think about #tiregate in the comments!

A conservative political activist named Laura Loomer recently made a shocking discovery
One Twitter user, however, decided to look a little closer…
Michelin even stepped in to back it all up
Laura got a little cross that people were being mean to her tire, and decided to bite back
It was too late, though, as the floodgate of memes had already opened wide
Someone even created a GoFundMe page in loving memory of the unfortunate tire…
Which Laura was quick to politely refuse
Someone else went drop-dead savage and updated her Wikipedia page – read the last sentence
Trying to salvage the last of her pride, Laura posted documents that supposedly confirmed her ordeal…
But even that fell apart, as it appears to be her handwriting on both reports (oops!)
Now that you’re up to speed on #tiregate, let us know what you think in the comments below!

Probably a combination of things. Having been a James O'Keefe disciple, she is used to confrontations. But mostly she is like the overwhelming majority of women, and the majority of males: they have little, or no, mechanical aptitude at all. Anybody unable to see what caused the wear and tear on a tire like that, is also blind to curbs too. :D

She's not too bright (to put it up mildly) and she clearly doesn't have any sense of humor. But more people like her should exist nowadays in order to entertain all the bored pandas there. Because people who are not amusing or stupid-looking on purpose are the funniest of all! ;)

Some people just WANT to be a victim, they think it validates their ideas if other people are attacking them. In her mind she thinks that if the liberals are attacking her that just proves that she is right and they can't argue with her so they resort to violence.

Here is the best part. The tire shop she stole those forms from said she never had tires serviced from them! DGaw5kWUQA...cca89d.jpg

F*****g conservatives. The extent they will go to to save their egos after they've lied, time and time again.

It just goes to show that people on both sides of the aisle attempt these shenanigans. As someone who works in the auto business, if I appraised that car those tires would be marked as "need to be replaced." They sure wouldn't pass a state inspection. Second, while it may not have been a blowout from hitting a curb, she sure looks like she's hit a lot of curbs, to the point that the metal in the tires is showing. They look like they have dry rot.

So why hasn't Drump tapped her to be Secretary of Transportation yet? She has precisely the skill set to fit right in.

It looks like she should've replaced those tires ten thousand miles ago. Look at that cracking.

She was probably driving along the road when the tire blew out and just said, "hmmm. That's a strange noise." And forgot about it 10 seconds later cuz the best part of her favorite country song came on and she just had to sing along!
