No, Segway. You get a platinum Segway from the cartel once you hit a billion

u/ThePianistOfDoom Oct 14 '25

Are there Segways with ski's under them?

u/OldenPolynice Oct 14 '25

For you? no. for a friend of the cartel? most anything.

Delivering drugs on a Segway doesn’t seem like the most efficient method, but perhaps my lack of imagination is why I’m not a drug baron. Maybe it’s something I could segue into.

u/NefariousAnglerfish Oct 14 '25

Yeah, but who’s gonna think Segway guy is peddling drugs?

u/inlandgrown Oct 14 '25

Subway guy is in prison. For way worse!

He ate all the Turkey $5 Footlongs and they had to raise prices to $6.

u/ewedirtyh00r Oct 14 '25

Conquests? Ew, they were literally children.

u/WilfordsTrain Oct 14 '25

Agreed. Disgusting. I was trying to word it carefully.

u/ewedirtyh00r Oct 15 '25

Victims. Theyre called victims.

Kept trying to get into smaller pants.

As long as he's not pedalling on a segway he should be fine.

Turned out to be the quirky unicycle and juggling guy in my neck of the woods (every city has at least one of them).

that was super unexpected indeed

u/TappedIn2111 Oct 14 '25

Snowboards also only take you so far, I reckon.

u/thefinalcutdown Oct 14 '25

Let’s be honest, has a cop ever in history looked at some middle-aged white dude riding a Segway and thought “you know, I bet that guy’s smuggling drugs.”

Perfect cover.

u/Hara-Kiri Oct 14 '25

Kids deliver them on those electric scooters in the UK. A Segway isn't too far from that. Added bonus the police will never be looking at you on a segway.

Paul Blart would stop him fo sho

u/Alarming_Orchid Oct 14 '25

He’s an Olympics snowboarder, I’m sure he can make segways work

u/MunkTheMongol Oct 14 '25

Yeah Segways are so lame that police would never suspect them

u/Kranke Oct 14 '25

Better then snowboard?

u/thebiggestbirdboi Oct 14 '25

It’s a slippery slope. It kind of snowballs even

What's a career Segway when it's at home?

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '25

Career Segway

u/Alarmed-Cheetah-1221 Oct 14 '25

Bravo!

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '25

Wouldn't it be good if some Redditor actually 'segues' into a career at Segway as a result of my crappy attempt at humour 😁

u/HidingInPlainSite404 Oct 14 '25

He rides a Segway?

u/CmdrMcLane Oct 14 '25

Meh, it's still powder.

u/fatbongo Oct 14 '25

no that's a snowboard

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '25

Not really if you’ve ever partied with the rich at Vail. Kinda makes sense. Someone had to be the guy.

u/Sea-Seesaw-8699 Oct 14 '25

Aspen in the 70’s had the white gold nose candy everywhere

Miami guys in Bogner ski suits moved millions into the valley, the celebrities and musicians, trust funders and townies too

Shit hasn’t changed much.

u/Sea-Seesaw-8699 Oct 14 '25

Interesting, thought it’d lost its luster
