I hate that C*NT more than anything

We hired a 22 year old at work.

Yes, she's hotter than my wife.

But she's not my best friend. She doesn't make me laugh. She hasn't seen me at my worst, and decided she loves me anyway.

So, I'll pass. Thanks.

I am a sucker for LEGO games, and once I heard that Hill Climb Adventure was getting a LEGO spin-off I was intrigued. I only played the first one and while it was fun, it didn't have a ton of depth. So I was pleased to find that this game actually has depth and a lot of content. One of the main midgame roadblocks is building new cars, so I thought I'd make a tier list talking about which ones players should prioritze. I have all but 2 cars, and so I feel comfortable breaking the ones I own down:

S Tier

Ace is far and away the best car in the game, in a game where the main hurdles are steep inclines and maining balance, a car that's great at both is a must build. Ace has amazing downforce that makes it easier to control than many other cars, and the speed helps it complete maps better than many other cars. It's only real weakness is that it's bad at getting air time, but that's solved with the other S tier.

Old School is really good for how early you can get it if you're smart. It was the 3rd car I unlocked, and it helped me unlock a bunch more cars that weren't as good. It is super lightweight, making it ideal for reaching high parts of a map. Once it picks up speed, it also goes extremely quick. This car also has the ability to go through roadblocks, but tbh that isn't a big deal and only makes the other car with this ability worthless. It does have one major weakness involving the fact it has poor grip and is thus bad at inclines if the car isn't already moving fast, but the Ace can do that.

A Tier

Hill Climber MK 2 is a fine car, and for being the starter one is pretty solid. As with any starter vehicle in a game like this, it does a bit of everything, and is a solid fallback if you don't have a lot of the specialist cars.

Race Car is a perfectly fine car, but it's actually harder to unlock than the Ace and is not quite as good in nearly every way. It is faster, but I find that isn't very useful.

B Tier

Bus is better than you might initially think, as it has good speed, control, and fuel. However the wheels being far from the sides of the car makes it a bit hard to control and I often find myself running over the passengers at the worst times.

C Tier

Cave Crawler is not a good car, it's slow and hard to control. However it has an exclusive gear item that is required for unlocking everything, so it can't be lower than C tier.

D Tier

Buggy has only one redeeming feature, it is unlocked early. Thus it has some use in the early game and is used in a decent number of side quests. However the car is really bad, with terrible controls and cannot stay grounded. The car is pretty much a new player trap, and should be dropped as soon as a better car is built.

F Tier

Hill Climber MK 1 is a funny concept, but it's worse than the Old School in every way, it's harder to control and has trouble staying grounded. I wish this car at least had some redeeming qualities, but it really doesn't. Even the ability to go through roadblocks is also given to Old School.

Monster is far and away the worst car in the game. It's slow, big, weak, and hard to control. It has literally no redeeming qualities. It is also one of the last cars you unlock, making it even worse. I can't think of a single good reason it's even in the game.

Law Rider and Hill Climber MK 3 are not included, as I haven't built those yet, my best guess is they are middle of the pack in terms of quality. !g*mers

Glad it's a damper to your comfort going out to eat. I suggest you stop. You clearly can't afford and you're compete and utter buttholes. Make your own food at home. People never cease to amaze me. (-32)

Basedness: 🔥🔥🔥🔘🔘

Good! You deserved to be uncomfortable for doing that. Simple question, no response to bad answer. I'd say the server handled themselves well. You didn't deserve that much courtesy but they can't force you to be decent people! (-38)

Basedness: 🔥🔥🔥🔘🔘

I was chased after when I had left already. That level of tip begging was what surprised me. (22)

Server didn't beg. They gave you a chance to have made a mistake. You failed the server/customer mores, not them. I def wouldn't go back there again! (-27)

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Serious question. How do you justify not tipping even with a rude and obnoxious server? I have tipped twice, once for our original server who disappeared after delivering our food and the server who actually waited on us. What should I have done with our original server? She wasn't rude or obnoxious. It just seemed like she didn't care or was lazy. (2)

i've never not tipped. the one very rude and obnoxious server i've had in the last 6 years as an adult, we just walked out after she brought us our drinks an hour later. wrote a bad review and called her name out. i've never been so displeased with service that i have tipped under 20%. these broke butt bitches are walking out every single meal they eat out feeling guilty and cheap? jesus. i only eat out with my girl like once a month and i know servers. they're there for your tip money. i'm going to ruin some young woman's day, and ruin my mood because of guilt over $10??? this sub is a joke. anti tipping should be a thing when you're getting ice cream, vape pods, or any other service that's given to you right at the counter. it shouldn't be targeted towards wait staff. (1)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Because we all know those waiters, driving around in their Mercedes and BMWs, they definitely are the ones we should be taking our anger at the system out on! (1)

Maybe I live in a more affluent area or whatever but I've definitely seen restaurant workers that drive BMWs or Benz's. Sometimes it's obviously a teenager of somebody that lives in the area. Sometimes it's not, though. I personally know one person who works a good paying office job but has Fridays off, and they serve at a restaurant on Fridays and weekends. Why does it really matter what they drive? I tip 20% no matter what, unless something egregious happens, like getting my order wrong twice somehow. The only other time I'm super tempted to not tip is when I get a clearly bad attitude from someone that isn't just having a bad day. The ones that treat you like you're annoying and inconveniencing them for just being there at the restaurant as a customer. That entitled and flippant attitude drives me nuts, and most of the time I still tip because I think to myself that they probably just haven't been through enough of life's bullshit to realize they probably don't have it so bad in ... (1)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

The audacity seems out of control these days. Many times the service sucks and then they still want a 30% tip when I have to wait 30 minutes for a drink and 30 minutes for my check. I don't make that much money either and I don't get a raise every year. I don't go to full service restaurants at all anymore and they still want a tip at the service counter. people have tip fatigue. The wait staff should be mad at the self-service kiosks that started begging for tips because that's really when people started getting tip fatigue (5)

This is it. Those things are the death knell for tipping culture. People are realizing more and more that it is a scam and taking advantage of people's good-hearted nature. No one likes to feel emotionally manipulated just for buying some food. People are largely sick of it, as this sub indicates. (2)

Crimean Wind and other UA sources are reporting the possible destruction of a new Russian S-500 Prometheus air defense system near the Dzhankoi Air Field in occupied Crimea.

NASA FIRMS thermal imagery shows a fire at the presumed location of the MGM-140 ATACMS M39A1 Block I missile strike which was acquired at 1300 Kyiv Time (1000 UTC) on June 28, 2024 (today).

Another report: https://bulgarianmilitary.com/2024/06/28/rumors-say-atacms-hit-the-radar-of-russias-latest-s-500-system/

According to these "sources," while the launcher remained intact, the radar of the S-500 battery sustained damage.

If this is true it will be hilarious

Russia only has one S-500 regiment. It's like US losing their only THAAD system with 2 weeks of it being deployed to the front.

Edit: He kept editing the word minor in and out of the tweet.

He admitted to texting a minor, he's getting a megathread for the fallout

​

his response to the accusation with ”Jake seriously... I get it, it's a hot topic but this has been settled, no wrongdoing was acknowledged and they paid out the whole contract.”

​

His response to the accusation and his response blowing up, "I didn't do anything wrong, all this has been probed and settled, nothing illegal, no wrongdoing was found, and I was paid."

​

Midnight Society, the company he co-founded, announcing that they are dropping him.

​

A bloomberg article written about the situation, saying they asked 3 twitch employees to if it's true. they all said yes.

​

Dr Disrespect admitting he did it, but tries to downplay it. despite him speaking with out a filter, he tried to edit out the fact he spoke to a minor, forgetting that you can see a tweets edit history, so he edited it back in

both versions of the tweet will be here, they are both super long and would make this reddit post a lot bigger than it should be

​

currently we are at his downfall, as people who were once defending him (outside of his fans) are now on the side of him attempting to groom a minor (notably Actman)

I thought he had retired? He isn't even innovating or leading anything special last I checked and his primary hobby appears to be to sue spaceX whenever he gets the chance. So why is his net worth 214.5 billion USD while Elon Musk is barely ahead with 221.2 Billion USD?

https://www.forbes.com/real-time-billionaires/#67e46d1d3d78

Honestly, I can't see Jeff being worth more than 160 Billion USD at best.

At least Bernard Arnault is about to fall out of the top 3 so only Americans will be in the top 3.

Logically the top 10 richest people in the world should be all Americans. It's strange that a Frenchman is up there.

When Elon Musk's net worth crosses 300 billion USD will Jeff Bezos be able to keep up?
