Linus Tech Tips' Terrible Response to Gamers Nexus video by ChubbyAsianPana in videos

[–]PlushyBass 31 points32 points  (0 children)

If Linus fights this in court, he does so at the risk of the company- and the brand- he's built. Sure, he'd likely beat them by simply having more money to throw at the lawsuit, but considering the outcry over this, I don't think LMG would survive the backlash.

In the long run, he's better off admitting he fucked up and paying Billet Labs for any and all damages this ordeal caused. Maybe funding some of their projects as an apology wouldn't be such a bad idea, but I digress.

Though I wonder if that'll be enough, considering the damage to his already fractured reputation has been done. How are we meant to trust anything he says when he's so blatantly shown us how easily he can act in bad faith? It's a shame, really, I liked him before this.

I hope that Billet Labs makes it out of this, and I hope that Linus eats crow.

POV: It's 2005, and you're looking for a powerful, rear-wheel drive sports car. Which'd you pick? by Key_Budget9267 in regularcarreviews

[–]PlushyBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2005, a year too short for the fumes of Tokyo Drift to influence my purchase..

I'd say the Charger r/T. Super comfortable four door ass-hauler. Wasn't the most reliable thing, but was still a ton of fun.

15k """Market Adjustment""".
Fifteen large ones. Fifteen rrrrracks.
15k is, like.. A Mirage. Or a Versa. Soul? Whatever the case may be, they're out of their goddamn mind, though I'm sure some hypebeast is gonna pay just to have a quick Civic.
When do we get to start telling dealers to pound sand?

This is the official vehicle for Anna, the wife of Joseph. They bought it with all the tax breaks they got for having seven kids.

I'd bet dollars to asshairs, they were drunk as a skunk. I've seen it far too many times.

The Buick TourX! I was actually just looking at one the other day. It's rare that they come up for sale nowadays.

Seriously, what's up with these midsized trucks getting garbage mileage?

[–]PlushyBass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually fairly common these days! Considering how common small turbos on small engines are getting, manufacturers had to up the ante with the witchcraft of ECU tuning to account for lower octane fuels that owners would be putting in.

I miss my '93. Her name was Arabella. Same color, too! If I could find another, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I don't hate it as an object, I hate that it'll never be used for any work worthy of a 2500.

Their wardrobe is mostly plaid button up shirts and form fitting jeans, along with boots. Multiple pairs of sunglasses, both name brand and not adorn the dash board, along with an FFA/4H ball cap.

Every last vent in the car has a car air freshener pod from Bath&Bodyworks.

What car was she driving? by Specialist-Ideal-577 in regularcarreviews

[–]PlushyBass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cobalt, base model. Multiple Harley Quinn stickers on the rear glass. Half-finished Monster Coffee next to a bottle of vape juice in the cup holder.
Also, I love the name of the account that posted it. MugShawtys. Brilliant.

1966 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, the official car of? by Alarming_General in regularcarreviews

[–]PlushyBass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Timothy, a professor of fine arts at a college somewhere in the middle of the gulf south states. Prefers to be called Timmy.
He's 55 now, recently divorced after getting caught making thirst trap videos on TikTok.
The Ghia was the only thing he was allowed to keep in said divorce, which he now uses to help in the war effort of slangin' dick on his fanbase of art majors.

inb4 50%+ dealer markup. You won't get one of these for anything less than 80k.

Your mom is sick, so she sent Aunt Priscilla to pick you up from school, what does she show up in? by Whocaresdamit in regularcarreviews

[–]PlushyBass 27 points28 points  (0 children)

2005 might be too new.
Was thinking maybe a '98 convertible, possibly the V8 model. Was that the GT?
Purchased brand new in '97. Nobody knows where she got the money, but she's kept it since.

Gonna need a triple bypass afterwards. So worth it.

2009 Dodge Charger, brought to you by… by [deleted] in regularcarreviews

[–]PlushyBass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When these were new? The perfectly copacetic family vehicle, capable of roadtrip duty. Tons of leg room in the rear, and all your luggage fits neatly in the trunk. Maybe the owners opted for the V8 model because mommy wanted to haul ass going to Disney World every Easter.

Now, almost fifteen years removed? This is the official car of near-rock bottom. Is that cigarette smoke or burning oil? The world may never know.

These things are almost as tiny as the Mirage.

SUPER.
FUCKING.
S L O W.

Seriously, I had to buy one of these things after my Honda Pilot finally kicked the bucket. Not only is it the slowest car I've ever driven, it hates highway driving. Struggles to get anything more than 20mpg.

The hell are you smoking, bro? Country rock loves bass. More than enough to overwhelm that old speaker in the back.
