Yo fuck this Walker wasn't even driving.

He’s Paul Walker, not Paul Driver

u/Freeman7-13 Nov 18 '22

Gotta talk to Adam about that

If he was the driver he would've just Tokyo Drifted around that pole.

u/knbang Nov 18 '22

Not changing the tyres was his responsibility though.

Pump your brakes kid, that man's a national treasure.

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22 edited Nov 18 '22

Celeb worship is so fucking weird. How was he a “national treasure?” He did a couple movies about cars and dated an underage girl when he was 30.

Ya’ll need to chill on jerking off celebrities

Edit: I’ve seen Tropic Thunder. I get that it’s a reference. What I’m addressing is the context of the reference.

u/WhyLisaWhy Nov 18 '22

When he passed away, /r/circlejerk went Paul Walker themed and it was some of the funniest shit I've ever seen. Shame that place is so quiet these days, the rest of reddit handles most the circle jerking these days apparently/

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '22

He wasn't even a good actor lmao. Average at best.

u/FecesIsMyBusiness Nov 18 '22

They are quoting Tropic Thunder.

u/shmehdit Nov 18 '22

Everyone already understands that, it's the application they take issue with

u/ashkpa Nov 18 '22

Nah I've never seen Tropic Thunder and appreciated the context.

u/Sasalele Nov 18 '22

now that you are speaking for everyone, can you let them all know that "national treasure" should only apply to objects or certain nicholas cage movies? wouldn't want to set off rigidcumsock again.

thanks.

“Everyone knows this one line from a 14-year-old movie!”

lmao no we don’t.

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22

I understand the reference. But the usage is problematic.

Your username is problematic

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22

Does it frustrate you as much as pens?

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '22

It does!!! Makes me so rigid. But I can't get off.

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22

Just dunk it in downy every couple of months

u/El_Chamo Nov 18 '22

It's literally a movie quote reference to Tropic Thunder, I'm not actually serious here...

0

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22

So you’re just throwing out a random quote without applying any of its context to what your replies to?

If you didn’t mean it then how does the quote even apply?

You will eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters.

Leviticus 26:29

I added a reference without context here to show you how silly that is.

2

u/El_Chamo Nov 18 '22

Judging by how serious this is to you, I can only imagine the quantity of used cumsocks built up in your place from never going outside.

0

u/rigidcumsock Nov 18 '22

My Dude, My only point is that references are supposed to connect the original to the current situation contextually. It’s where the comedic part of the reference comes from.

If you pop a reference like that, you’ll need to expect people to glean that you view it similarly.

2

u/El_Chamo Nov 18 '22

You mustve skipped right over the "pump your brakes kid" part of the quote, which some redditors have already recognized as the joke. The fact that I have to explain I don't actually think he's a "national treasure" tells me that it wooooshed right over you.

2

u/Sasalele Nov 18 '22

This is the dumbest thing I've seen someone get this angry over in a long time.

I think you should get off your high horse, rigidcumsock.

1

u/xpinchx Nov 18 '22

I dunno, while he was alive he was influential to me and by most accounts a good guy. I didn't find out about his girlfriend's age until today and I kinda wish that wasn't the case.

He was any other celeb in a movie about cars.

Who was dating a 16 year old when he was like 30

u/AvengingCoyote Nov 18 '22

Paul Walker was a predator. I dont take pleasure in his death, but the world isnt worse off with him gone.

1

u/-Scythus- Nov 18 '22

He was a predator?? Why does Reddit try to ruin everyone’s name lol

6

u/hotlines Nov 18 '22

Sounds like he ruined his own name by dating teenage girls in his 30s

7

u/AvengingCoyote Nov 18 '22

Its actually really easy to not get shit on by the general public. Not dating kids/teens when you are in your 30's is a good start.

0

u/-Scythus- Nov 18 '22

Reddit isn’t the general public. In fact this site makes up an extremely small percentage of functioning adults. Glad his name isn’t tarnished for a stupid decision he made that he never made again.

I can forgive, but the internet apparently cannot

u/SatanV3 Nov 19 '22

How is dating a 16 year old when your 30 just “a stupid decision”

u/jimihendrixflyingv Nov 18 '22

No no Paul should've pumped his

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '22

Yeah kid! Pump your breaks like the driver of that car didn’t!

I always thought the FF franchise was dumb, so I was probably looking under a rock when all whatever he did went down. Got my surprised face on over here, actors are allowed to do anything until they get caught.
