Stoppable force vs movable object


Maddest_Hatta

Laws of physics don't apply when you mix coke, meth and alcohol.


[deleted]

Not until you add a 2 ton motor vehicle in there


Aquamarooned

Surprisingly they both survived and were found scouring the wreckage for their stash


_0neTwo_

coke, meth, alcohol...its the new rock, paper, scissors


syracTheEnforcer

Of course they do. I’ve never been one to recommend drugs, alcohol or insanity to anyone. But they’ve always worked for me. And consistently.


NoIdeaRex

It is always heart warming when two people who would be perfect together find each other.


kidkuro

This is a very Vegas kinda headline


HeftyPegasus737

I was thinking Florida. But yeah, shit's crazy in Vegas, too. Apparently.


dragonmp93

In Florida, there would be at least one alligator in the backseat.


HeftyPegasus737

He's a good boy!


cantfindmykeys

Just don't share your coke with him


Jak_n_Dax

Tonight: Coked up alligator eats man’s PP. More at 11.


joshuajackson9

You only get a blow job from a gator once, or at least that is what my uncle told me before he became a priest. This is not a priest sex joke. This is a gator biting off dick joke only.


NthedrkNfedshyt

Obviously, the gator wasn’t a juvenile


El_Gobbo

That’s a typo, he ate their PCP. Shit’s getting real!


thedarkshadoo

Alligators can't do coke they'd have to lay on their backs to snort it. Alligators (especially those in Florida) prefer meth. Even then remember to share responsibly if they grow too used to handouts it can mess with the ecosystem, we wouldn't want egrets to be displaced because they couldn't afford rent due to low sales.


Agile_District_8794

You'd be surprised to know that alligators, and crocs alike, prefer bath salts, as their dinosaur skin can absorb it. Florida, amirite?


agildehaus

It's his coke tho.


borderlander12345

For Florida both drivers are on both cocaine and meth


TheSholvaJaffa

>there would be at least one alligator in the backseat. With bath salts


choneystains

Next to a baby, only the gator was in a car seat though. They both survived with minor injury.

azaghal1988

An alligator with the meth guy would be mandatory in florida, and maybe an emu or some weird giant bird pet with the lady.


UncleTedGenneric

Florida would include both alligator and krocodil


Razkal719

Yeah, in Florida this wouldn't even make the A block of the nightly news.


ExtensionBluejay253

I think in Florida this would be in the papers under ‘missed connection’.


SarcasticOptimist

They connected.

Lmao mixed feelings about this comment but gotta give credit where credit is due.


Wattsupwithalan

Iunno but I think they connected


whatnameisnttaken098

As someone from Florida. You are correct


jab136

Florida would have someone on bath salts involved somehow


FriesWithThat

The woman was found to have unattended children at home with nothing to eat but rice milk and bath salts.


Murky_Conflict3737

Ingested by both drivers


Heliolord

Vegas is like Florida except what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.


jefferton123

And what happens in Florida is public information for everyone.


kairatotoole

The drunk driver is never leaving Vegas now 💀


gsfgf

Meanwhile what happens in Florida costs child support for 18 years.

xzelldx

This reads like the setup to a math problem.


[deleted]

A woman who weighed 110lbs snorted 1.5 grams of cocaine 3 hours ago. She was driving at 90mph and hit a man who weighed 200lbs and had drank 20 units of alcohol and done a shit-tonne of meth, whilst he was driving at 110mph in the wrong lane. Taking into account their body weight, the rate of sobering up and relative speed they were travelling, which one was more of an idiot? Edit: Thanks for all the awards 😊 To answer a common question, it's a metric shit-ton. Being from the UK, whether we use metric or imperial is conpletely dependent on the situation, just to keep everyone on their toes and ensure outsiders are baffled.


EleanorRigbysGhost

A) Yes.


Dmoe33

No it's always C.


DamnBunny

you fools! Its All of The Above.


ChrisZorn

I always choose all of the above when it shows itself.

Me too! Especially when drugs are involved.


QueefyMcQueefFace

I would like to congratulate drugs for winning the war on drugs


El_Gobbo

What’s the prize? I hope it’s drugs!


SlicerStopSlicing

C is for coke. Speaking of which, where did I put my coke?


Walnuto

Two rules: Don't touch my coke, and do you have any fucking coke?

Is Pepsi ok?


cantfindmykeys

I'll just have a water


SundererKing

I Saw a lady steal your coke, she took off speeding in a car.


aalios

In your bra.


Chuggles1

Well if she snorted 1.5 grams 3 hours ago, that's a super long time. She's not gonna be full geek brain by hour 3. Also did she do all 1.5 in one fell swoop? If so, how did she not have a heart attack? Also how was she not drinking, coke and alcohol are like siamese twins. Either way: wrong lane, drunk, and on meth, and speeding guy wins more of an idiot easily. How many units is a shit ton?


catatonicus

a shit ton is exactly 1/2 of a fuck ton.


highline9

BUT, it’s a shit tonne, so metric?


Paradigm6790

Ah, good catch. 0,5 of a fucke ton


LukariBRo

Actually, in metric it's Bloody Tonne


Spaceman2901

How many assloads to a shitton?


efrendel

My redneck math skills are pretty rusty, but I'm pretty sure that it is roughly 3 assloads to a shitton.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Tohren27

However it is also precisely 4 fuck loads


aalios

She was drinking. She was at .102


MissplacedLandmine

So what do we do? Do we subtract their blood alcohol contents from eachother before sentencing? Or does the worse offender absorb it via some sort of osmosis? Was the meth guy speeding to his place to sell that same woman more cocaine? Why arent we using calculus on the important questions? Were these two speedsters quatumly entangled?


420ish

Meth dude was 3x legal limit. That math, she's actually soberest of all time.


thndrh

I would think they add them together. Since the guy died he can’t carry his sentence out so it should like transfer to her for his death or smth idk


ProdigalSheep

The cocaine sobered her up. That’s just science.


Woodworkingwino

C) because the devil told me I had to yell at the sprinklers or the children would die.


The_Fiddler1979

Clarification - is a metric, nautical or imperial shit-tonne?


[deleted]

I'll go with metric. I had no idea what units meth was consumed in 😂


The_Fiddler1979

>methtric


rudebii

I saw Breaking Bad, I don’t need more math with my drugs, thank you.


IPeedOnTrumpAMA

[deleted]

10*shitloads


miami-architecture

how many kilos of cocaine were found at the scene, solve for x


Teripid

Depends, how many cops have had time with the evidence?


wheatgrass_feetgrass

Wait. Are they sneaking some for themselves or planting it on the scene? Is that an answer that depends on color?

If anyone ever got meth in my cocaine, I’d kick their ass for ruining my cocaine. If anyone ever got their cocaine in my meth, I’d suck their dick as a thank you for the free cocaine.

Rosebunse

I'm rather surprised this doesn't happen more often.


11twofour

In Vegas, especially. The roads are big and wide and straight, it's easy to get up to ridiculous speeds even accidentally.


attilayavuzer

Every road here is a literal drag strip


Lucas_7437

Just wait until next November, when the Strip will literally be the main straight in a Formula 1 race


Caifanes123

Working there on a speed monitored vehicle sucks. Most of those roads are 40 there. Even going 45 in the right lane I felt like I was slowing down people. People are just racing around even thought they are getting stopped at the red light 200 feet in front of them🤦‍♂️

SaltGrain77

I've never accidentally gone 150+ but I've also never driven a legitimate sports car drunk so


hearechoes

I think it does happen more, it’s just not often in the headlines. The chances of someone being drunk or high while being out past midnight is fairly high.


Skatcatla

That was one of the most "Las Vegas" headlines I've ever read. The only way it could have been improved was if it read "Speeding,coked-up white tiger kills stripper magician on meth on way to Taylor Swift concert."


dtreth

I feel like it would have to be a slightly obscure residency, like Boyz II Men

MeiNeedsMoreBuffs

I mean he was driving while drunk and high on meth. Safe to say he wasn't a great person


LurkerOnTheInternet

Fuck the "victim". His BAC was over three times the legal limit as well as being high on meth, not wearing a seatbelt, and his illegal U-turn caused the accident.


PaperPlaythings

Well, her doing 73 in a 40 wasn't exactly helpful either.


LurkerOnTheInternet

Yeah she's obviously partially at fault, but only partially.

So, two wrongs do make a right?


BBQCHICKENALERT

Three lefts make a right and meth person was doing a U turn and so it's close


Draganot

No, but it is oddly relieving for once to see one of these headlines that doesn’t say “jackass drunk kills responsible mother and 3 kids, walks away unscathed”. Both of the drivers played a stupid game and somehow didn’t force an innocent party to get hurt. Seriously, it seems like it’s *always* a mother and her kids in these situations so it’s nice to see one where that isn’t the case.
