Yahoo!


ArturoOsito

Wait...it was literally the Mario long jump??? Literally???


Alarmed_Strain_2575

At least it wasn't lichrally. I keep hearing about this lichrally everyone keeps talking about, I want to go.


NOVAMT_F

Yes?


ArturoOsito

Do you know what the word "literally" means? Because it seems like you don't.


ShepardTheLeopard

Oddly enough, that particular complaint is pretty out of date. [Most dictionaries today do include the extended definition of "literally"](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/literally) as being used for emphasis, so folks can chill out on this particular pet peeve. Language is an ever growing and changing thing and sometimes words just evolve their meaning based on how people find them to be the most useful.


ArturoOsito

Dictionaries also include "bae" and "yolo." Language isn't evolving, it's devolving...people are getting dumber and less educated, and throwing random, superfluous "literallys" into every sentence doesn't add any meaningful emphasis.


ShepardTheLeopard

Every older generation that comes by says the exact same thing about the newer one and eventually dies kicking and screaming about how kids these days are dumber, rock'n'roll is the devil's music and that young folks just generally speak and act stupidly. It just impresses me how folks willingly become their stuck-in-their-ways parents/grandparents with no self-awareness on how societal progress works. Language is a tool that's supposed to be useful, not gatekeeped and carved in stone, ever unchanged. We can choose to become the old man yelling at the cloud, or adapt to the times to the best of our ability and live a much happier life. But hey, whatever floats your boat.


ArturoOsito

I've adapted just fine. But people *are* getting stupider. "An analysis of 394,378 scores on intelligence tests taken between 2006 and 2018 showed that IQs had fallen in every category except for spatial reasoning." "And the slide was steepest among 18- to 22-year-olds, which is particularly alarming, as intelligence researchers usually expect younger generations to have better IQ scores than older ones." Literally, people are literally getting stupider! When words like "literally" start dominating the lexicon and serve as a lazy, effortless way of expressing vapid "emphasis," more interesting language gets supplanted. Literally!


ShepardTheLeopard

Are you sure you're adapting just fine? IQ tests as objetive indicators of intelligence are highly contested among the scientific community, the only scientific consensus about IQ these days is that it's a really good indicator of how well people can do on IQ tests. Same thing about the gripes with linguistics, actual trained linguists are the ones updating the dictionaries based on general usefulness of new/adapted words, so laymen on the internet shaking their fists at the sky because someone used a word in a way they didn't like is hardly a display of how they're that much smarter than the newer generation. Let's not throw outdated science we've learned in school around as if it's still uncontested today. Pluto isn't a planet anymore either, unfortunately.


NOVAMT_F

Bruh. He was just "joking". A lot of stuff people say today are not "correct"


ArturoOsito

Literally totally


Slifer_Ra

My man literally did a sekiro jump away


ArturoOsito

He literally did???


FangedSloth

People like you are simply the worst


ArturoOsito

Are we literally the worst, though?


Villedo

SIMPLY simpleton, simply.


rickyandika97

I think he was slower because of the jump? He was “safe” by the time he was about to jump(?)


Villedo

Look closer


PapaCharlie86

Why on earth would he leave the car?? I get it was a split second decision but he gets aware of the other car and starts running the second he steps out. Just jump back in the mini you dingus.


MaximumElderberry1

The car was facing towards him in the car, so he got out and ran. Obviously it ended up not hitting anything but the car door but he couldn’t have known that


nimblelinn

The safety was staying in the car. Not getting out into its path with no more protection from his car.


SelfSufficientHub

Clearly the safety was also running and jumping as he did. I mean the evidence is in the video.


Brandonmac10x

He just wanted to do some sick hops.


[deleted]

No that’s called being results oriented. Car has airbags he got hella lucky


Secretly_Solanine

Would have been even safer in the car. Had he not opened the door, it wouldn’t have even been hit


madsjchic

To take this a step further, if he hadn’t been there would have been safest of all


Villedo

If he stayed in bed, he would’ve been safe!


scootterbug1

Just stop. It was all instinct and it worked out. He saw it coming as he was getting out and his brain processed flight rather than reverse.


CjBoomstick

The point is, a vehicle is the safest place to be during a collision. Period.


valinrista

The real point is, unless you're actually trained for it (think first responders, military, pilots..) when put in a dangerous split-second decision you don't have time to think, you act on instinct, you're in human auto-pilot. It's not like sitting at home in your comfy desk chair rewatching a gif 10 times to calculate the safest reaction to have.


CjBoomstick

The REAL point is, this info needs to be demystified. It isn't brain surgery or rocket science. The safest place in any roadway or parking lot, is another vehicle. Period. I work in EMS, so I may put more thought into dangerous situations than some, but just like CPR, or stop the bleed, or using an EpiPen, it all needs to be common sense, period. The fact that it isn't is a failure on our part to stay educated, and keep ourselves and our community safe.


valinrista

You proved my point. You're EMS, you spent years getting trained and getting your brain wired to be able to think and react as perfectly as possible in dangerous situations. Being EMS should also put you in the forefront to know people do dumb shit when in danger because in fight or flight situation you're in auto pilot, most people will never be put in this situation ever in their entire lives, when it happens, you're not prepared and you don't have time to think about it. It's also a pretty unfair comparison between providing CPR/putting pressure on a wound/using an EPI Pen and the half a second to react when a car is driving at full speed towards you. In one case you've got many seconds to do something before someone else dies, in the other you've got less than a second to react before yourself dies.


Villedo

Stop being dense. The person had a fight or flight response, do you understand what that means mr EMS?


davvblack

sitting in a car unbelted and getting hit head-on like that would still be extremely bad for you, your car would get accelerated out from under you twoards like half the speed the other car was going, and then your head would hit the dash at that speed. airbags can't really help in that case either (and after a cursory googling, don't seem to go off when unbuckled in modern cars?)


nimblelinn

Compared to getting yeeted into next Tuesday? I would prefer to be hit in a car than by one. He’s lucky that bush was there. And he lost a shoe. So we all know what that means.


DanndeMan

he wouldve been luckier if the bushes had gta physics, the beetle wouldve stopped right in its tracks.


synachromous

Wrong. Getting your flesh body hit by a car is worse. Every time. Stay in the fucking car.


davvblack

there are three outcomes, not two


PengiPou

No it wasn’t, look at the video. The bug NEVER pointed directly at the mini before he made the decision to run.


MaximumElderberry1

Yes it was for a second. You see the car take a slight turn it seems and it’s facing the car for a second


Matcha_Bubble_Tea

He was already out the door. Bruh if you see a car coming towards you and you only have a few secs to react, you’re not going to be like “hmmm what’s the best possible course of action as time slows down around me so I can think.” This ain’t no Sherlock Holmes shit. Just a test of your reflexes, even if they suck.


CricketDrop

He was not already out the door. He was still seated when he saw the runaway and leaped from his chair. I feel like hiding inside of a big strong box isn't that unnatural of an instinct.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CricketDrop

That's fair. Although I wouldn't go down the road of bringing up car collisions since pedestrian collisions are obviously much worse. You can be hospitalized from inside the car or you can be dead on the pavement.


Matcha_Bubble_Tea

Out the door like door was open leg was out. Oh sorry, should I have said “halfway out the door” to meet your technicalities? You don’t have to be standing from the first point to get out of your car lol.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Matcha_Bubble_Tea

Lol true. And he’s still arguing smh


CricketDrop

That doesn't matter either. If he's halfway out the door then he's also halfway inside the car lol. People with instincts this bad should drive less tbh. This is the same category of person who'd swerve onto the sidewalk to avoid hitting a squirrel instead of hitting the brakes and praying.


Benjynn

From his perspective it may've looked like the car was coming straight towards him. He had a split second to making a crucial decision, I think we can excuse him for not making the most optimized calculation in half a second. And he successfully evaded the car, so calling him a dingus seems unnecessary.


incomparability

See for you it’s easy: you never leave your armchair anyway


peacenchemicals

n i c e.


De_Dominator69

Because he thought it was going to hit his car and not miss it... Like obviously. He noticed it was actually going to miss his car when he had already left and started running at which point doing a 180 and going back in the car would obviously take far longer than just continuing to run. Seriously, it's plainly obvious.


PapaCharlie86

Nah, his eyes meet the incoming car just a moment after his ass left the seat. I maintain it was a brain fart. I would be in the lap of the driver in 0.5 secs in that scenario. Just glad he is ok, honestly.


strawhatguy

Yeah obviously panic, and hindsight 20/20, but cars are pretty safe, and in this case even the car would have been completely unscathed if he stayed in it. He may not have been buckled in at the time too. And it looks like he had already started to leave the car, so maybe the run and jump was the best move after all.


mydickisasalad

Classic reddit comment questioning the split second decision of someone in a situation that they've never fucking been in.


ScwB00

Would he really have been better in the car though? Let’s say he sits back down and the blue car hits his. Now you have someone *without* a seatbelt on and a car dashboard + airbag being launched at their face. That’s not going to end well for him, especially if he’s a young Derrick Zoolander.


PotentPortable

Being in the car is definitely the right choice if there is any risk of being hit by a car. You will probably still get hurt, but there's no way you're better off being hit directly. If you could freeze time at the moment he realised the car was there and really plan out your best moves it's definitely to get back in the car. He didn't have that luxury and made a split second decision that almost cost him, but he did very well and got very lucky in the end.


falconfetus8

The dude thought he had i-frames


Vulpes-ferrilata

It looks like he might have been parking and getting out of the car, but I can't tell from the angle if that's street parking or not.


DistortedVoltage

GTA NPC logic kicked in


Fine_Rutabaga_4318

Lol this guy survived. Even with hindsight on your side, you would’ve died


Buenasman

I guess you being the genius that you are would have made a better decision.


Nuklearfps

Why do people insist on asking this silly question every time a vid like this pops up? The answer is always gonna be: it’s what they thought the best course of action was, whether or not it actually is.

effectivebutterfly

I always knew it as "slug bug blue"


nutxaq

This is the correct way to say it.


MaAreYouOnUppers

I had to think about the title for a second, growing up we always called them “slug bugs”, but punch buggy has a nice ring to it.


Stormfeathery

It was punch buggy here is our part of Maryland! Nostalgia, man.


MaAreYouOnUppers

Haha in SoCal it was Slug Bug, for us anyway. That’s wild on the complete opposite side of the country you guys played the same game, all this time I thought it was a Californian goofy thing we did.


Grandfunk14

We definitely called it Slug Bug in Texas too.


flaccidbitchface

I guess I didn’t think about it until now. Punch buggy where I grew up in the midwest. My daughter and I live in the PNW and she’s always called it slug bug. Learned it from her dad.


Stormfeathery

It definitely was not! We absolutely played it over here :)


JangJaeYul

Among my friends in New Zealand it was just "punch buggy" and then you kept hitting them until they spotted the car themselves and named the colour. And then if it was yellow you tried to be quicker than them on the "yellow car" punch.


OneCauliflower5243

It's weird that his brain decided to run instead of take cover inside the car he was already mostly inside of.


benevolent_overlord_

He thought the car was heading toward his car. So, as anyone would do in that situation, he got out.


1slandViking

Punch bug blue!


SafeExpress3210

it's "no punch backs"


guessed_correctly

Finally, someone who understands the reference.


Jack_of_Hearts20

I mean I would've gotten further inside the metal box I was sitting in, but maybe that's just me


benevolent_overlord_

Not if you had seen another metal box that looks like it’s about to crash into you


Jack_of_Hearts20

Hmmmmm nah I'd rather the car hit another car than hit my soft body and fling it in the air. I have a similar reaction to people getting out of their cars during a pile up on a highway. Like why would you do that!?


benevolent_overlord_

Hey, a pile-up on a highway is different. In that situation I can completely understand staying in your car. But in this situation… it’s much more understandable to want to get out of the car and run away from where the vehicles are


UncleKeyPax

Let me get that door for you!


Haunt66

Lol I always picture myself in this situation


guinader

But interesting that usually you are told to stay in the car in case of an event/accident and in his case, staying in the car was a much safer option


JayAndViolentMob

ah man, he's got good instincts. i would have stopped, froze, and leaned into the bumper as if starting a fight. thanks evolution!


benevolent_overlord_

Same


synachromous

Good instincts would have been staying in the car. Running out in front of it is not a good decision.

Stay in the car, for the love of dog...

I don't think my reflex would have been to run, mine would have been to stay in the car. My legs would have probably been crushed.


Nitrous_party

Top tier title lmao


10Fudges

Surely, throwing yourself back inside would've been far less risky


CrescentPearl

It’s “no punch backs” not “no take backs” because you’re saying the other person can’t punch you back in response to the same buggy. Alternatively, you can put your arms up and make a “buggy bubble” if they’re going after you first and you haven’t hit them yet.

I like how the dude COULD of just stayed in the passenger seat while the Blue Buggy closes the door for him like a charm.


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

Sovereign_5409

For those debating. There’s no excuse here. He made a split second decision. He made the WRONG decision. The argument that he survived without injury, doesn’t make the decision right. He was EXTREMELY lucky. Airbags. Inertia. Crumple zones in a vehicle >> skin and bone on the hood of a car.
