I mean, we just saw a video of someone being confused in the same way you are, but when someone refers to "the hard R" I assume they are referring a racial slur that starts with the letter "N" but is also used in a lot of very popular songs by African American rappers, which makes it hared to sing along to them.

That's apparently what Linus thought, and I've always wanted to ask: if that were the case then what would the soft-R word be? Just lower cased or...?

Colorism and hyper regionalist brainworms are real and loving bizarre. Very much the bitcoin vibe of “no it can’t be that stupid you’re explaining it wrong”.

I have an unnamed family member who explained that no, cops will treat him better because he’s African and not “a ghetto black person”. ??????????????

There’s obviously an element of respectability politics woven into it but nonetheless: there is no racist in the world who will give a poo poo about whether you’re from Barbados, Botswana or Boston. To them, you have one designation and it ends in a rock hard R.

African immigrants saying it is so weird to me because it's like "I'm not sure you're allowed to say it either." But also I'm not going to be the person to correct them. Just give me a White racist I can shout down and show myself as an ally.

If you're being called it I think you have a better right to say and coopt it. Cops don't differentiate btw what country you're from as long as you're black.

E: I don't like to say the n word but understand other black people that do. But plenty of pp have called me it since I immigrated here as a 6 year old, just fat old white dudes yelling it at a little kid in a convenience store trying to buy a kit Kat. It's hosed.

Lol I thought that was just if you drove through an automatic car wash, but apparently just cleaning it at all

I just read something that said you have to put the car into a special "car wash mode" to wash it and if you don't put it in that special mode then that voids the warrant. Also they warn users not to wash it in direct sunlight to prevent corrosion

the warranty is void even if you do wash it in super-special 'car wash mode' (lmao how does changing a setting even loving work, how is that supposed to un-gently caress your piece of poo poo Space Invaders polygon car)

i think the car wash mode is the same as the tow truck mode that disables the motors on the wheels so they roll freely when you go in one of the car washes that pulls your car along

IIRC it is supposed to disable some features like the windshield wipers and also close some vents to prevent water from getting in. Which is something every other car doesn't need to do when getting wet.

Normal cars simply have drainage holes to prevent this exact thing from happening. But one of the dumbass design decisions imposed by Musk was that the thing should be able to wade or even float in high waters, so I guess they tried to make it waterproof from below.

As someone who thought like that Linus video the first few times I heard the phrase Hard R, I thought it meant calling someone retarded instead of using a euphamism or actual medical sounding word. Like a "soft R" is "oh he's so nice but he's quite slow"

Am I 🧑‍🏫 out of touch🤔? No🧐, it's the children👶 who are wrong🤷🏼‍♂️
I have on a few occasions said to people, friends even, when talking a out Teslas that I would never buy one because (aside from all the other quality problems and poo poo) I would “rather buy an electric car from a car company than an electric car from a tech company” and I really don’t know how else to make that statement more poignant and concise yet convey so much.

When I said it to a friend I didn’t know they had just bought one.

I didn’t take that statement back. :colbert:
