A screenshot of a post showing a red pickup truck with a mechanical arm structure attached to its bed, holding a magnet in front of a metal plate mounted on the front bumper, titled “Okay explain why this wouldn’t work”. Below, a comment from the official Volkswagen account reads “We sent this to the engineering department and they blocked us on teams.”
Neither carrots or donkeys are magnetic 🙄
And yet… there is attraction. I propose, until we’ve studied it enough to come up with a better name, the “donkey carrot attraction force”
I don’t care whom you’re attracted to, but you might want to keep this one to yourself… Unless you’re in the FBI!
Can this attraction be improved upon? Like if the carrot wears some lipstick or some such?
I don’t think the carrot is attracted to the donkey the way the donkey is attracted to the carrot…
Perhaps in a few years, after I’ve published my paper on Donkey-Carrot-Attraction-Force, you can design an experiment to study the asymmetry of the effect. I look forward to your citations!
Have you met every single donkey? No? Didn’t think so.
Everything is magnetic if you try hard enough.
Then you tie a big chunk of metal to the front, just like they did with the car
