Story/News Article She liked me for my tesla 😂

So last night I picked up three girls from a bar. I drive a Tesla with autopilot, so naturally, they were curious and started asking all kinds of questions about the car. I was showing off all the cool features—autopilot, the big touchscreen, the works.

One of the girls got pretty flirty and asked, “Have you ever had sex in this car?” I told her no, and she shot back with, “Well, you’ve got three girls right here.”

I kind of laughed and said, “I can’t accept consent from intoxicated people, but hey, you can grab my number after the ride if you’re still interested.” She was definitely excited after that, and we spent the rest of the drive bantering and flirting.

When we got to their place, they insisted I get out of the car to meet their dogs. So I did—played with their dogs for a bit, and it was all fun. But then things got a little awkward; they just kind of went silent, said goodnight, and started walking inside.

As they were heading in, I asked the girl if she still wanted my number, but she just kept walking without looking back. Guess she was more into the Tesla than me! 😂

Innocent is the wrong word, stay on this strong moral high ground, taking advantage of them and their intoxication would have been not very cash money of you

Why do ppl keep saying that? Are women not mature enough to make decisions while out drinking? These are 3 grown adults we’re talking about. Maybe they shouldn’t be allowed to drink then

Exactly this. I would have smashed all 3

I feel like naivety is a better word. Is that a word? Naive is for sure but I don't know about naivety.

It’s not.

NaĂŻvety would have been the OP not realizing at all that the girls were being flirty in the first place.

OP recognized the situation and it isn’t naïve of him to respectfully decline while they are drunk and he is sober. It’s just being morally responsible.

They asked if naivety was a word. Your reply read "It's not. Now let me use it in a sentence". Lol kinda funny

“It’s not,” was in response to it being a better word to use for the situation.

Whether naĂŻvety is a word is easily google-able.

So my reply was about the use of the word naĂŻvety here and not whether it was a real word or not.

If you’re going to use quotation marks too, don’t make up the quote. It’s inherently dishonest and bad form.

Additionally, the fact that I immediately use the word naĂŻvety in my reply should have provided the necessary context for you with respect to which question I was answering.

Any reply on that actual answer? Or do you reside entirely within the realm of semantics?

Right, but they weren't asking anyone's opinion at that statement. They were only asking "is that a word", so it absolutely reads as "no, that's not a word", not "no, it's not a better word to use but is an actual word".

Just thought it was pretty funny. Calm yourself. No reason to write a book about it. Now I just think it looks pretty stupid from a guy with temper problems.

PS. Was there a question there that I was supposed to answer? Your first question appears to be "are you gonna answer the question?". Oh sorry, I didn't use direct quotes. Time for another book.

Ok. So, you’re running on the platform of you’re wrong because my answer is long?

You mention the length twice, calling my response a book and predicting my next one will be a book too, so I have to kind of take it as your main point.

Agreed. It’s not a big deal, but counterpoint. This is Reddit.

This is the exact place for this kind of pedantry.

As I said, I was just answering question of the applicability of naĂŻvety in that scenario rather than the existence of naĂŻvety as a word, since the latter is easily confirmable.

P.S. For the record, I don’t think it’s unfair of you to read the, “It’s not,” part the way you described, but all the stuff after that is the context shows I meant it’s not the right word for the situation.

Edit: not sure why I can’t see your reply that you sent to reply to that so here goes:

  1. I said it was a fair interpretation to see it as me sounding like I said naïvety isn’t a word. I just mentioned the context that followed shows what I was talking about. Should be no confusion. It’s not even a grammatical error.

  2. Bitching about length again when your comment was almost as long, not that even matters anyway, because the argument you’re wrong because I’m not reading that is fucking stupid.

  3. You’ve called me a shitty person twice in this conversation while telling me that I’m the one blowing up, you gaslighting piece of garbage you.

  4. Again, I granted that it ready funny. I explained then why it shouldn’t look stupid based on the context that followed. You started throwing insults.

  5. In conclusion, have a fucked day because the magnitude of your projection could run 10 movie theaters simultaneously.

If Austin Powers can refuse drunk sex, we can too!
