“So if you’re going to pull a random rant about a dead guy remotely related to cars who used to date underage girls...”

Nobody is calling him Jimmy Saville, that man was a literal rapist and the devil incarnate. But it’s not great, and it’s worse because he’s Paul Walker. When it’s some middling dude with no prospects who winds up with a 16 year old because they’re impressionable and fall or an older man then while it is creepy and

Less than half his age?

Maybe this is just me speaking for myself, but I think dating someone less than half your age is intrinsically creepy.

I’m trained to administer Narcan and we can only get the vials and needles in my area — the nasal spray is cost prohibitive here and they can’t get as much to give away for free. Not saying that’s the case here as he probably had enough money to carry the spray on him or give doses to those around her perchance it is

“Makes it sound like he was continuing to take the pills as he feared overdose” not really. “overdosing” is commonly used to describe the state of being in a overdose, not just the act of taking an overdose

I’d have to be a dude before I could marry “another” dude. Us girls want to know if we can be part of the scene too, you know.

I wonder what your “girl” thinks about being in third place.

Even if it was a joke, what is rule number 1 in car culture?

I say it rhyming with “rogue,” too. Because it's obviously supposed to be like "dog." 

Not remotely suprising. A quick look at the female characters in LoL itself tells you tons about their mindset toward women.

Thank you for this very thorough and detailed reporting. This seems the result of several different toxic cultures (Business, Gamer, Start-Up, etc.) all intersecting and building on one another. Very disappointing...

I uncomfortably pronounce it with a hard g wondering if im saying it wrong. I’m still hip with the kids and the internet, I swear!

Back in my day, we listened to the dub step! wubb wuubb wubbin it!”

There’s no contention on that topic, you and everyone else that doesn’t use the J are just wrong.

If you get a kick out of Zed, have a Brit say “H”.

They think “Drink driving” is a thing, despite the fact that Drink is not an adverb and that phrase would only make sense if an anthropomorphic drink happened to be driving a car.

And they are completely confused about “aluminum.”

Well that would make his opinion null and void. People from the UK don’t even know how to correctly pronounce the letter z or spell the word color. 

Or he is from the UK.  I have noticed, and it has been pointed out, that in the UK it’s very common to call it the ness.

I think you are an outlier. I also don’t remember anyone referring to it as either the NES or Ness back in the day. It seems like in the late 80's and up until SNES was released most people just called it Nintendo. I honestly don’t remember many people referring to them as NES/Super NES/SNES until after the year 2000.
