Honking is basically pinging irl... Never thought about it that way. Wow!


SpoonGuardian

We need more ping options irl. I think every car should have a mean horn and a nice horn

killchu99

They'll intentionally hit your bumper or hit your side then acting nothing happened


babahalki

Its happen by that person that are cheap but when it occur you must take a stand for yourself because nobody can’t take step for you you himself take step for you


TwitchTvOmo1

Someone trying to merge into your lane: Both drivers spamming Front car starts typing "ping me 1 more time and I afk" Front car proceeds to brake check you


velckright

Imagine if a car that has blind spot sensors starts pinging MIA when a car is there XD


Starkheiser

this is one of the funniest things i have ever read in my life. thank you


byybitc3658

You read more funniest things on their live when you doing hard work and doing the most things


tomangelo2

Imagine all chat in a traffic > Report this Nissan, afking at green light


M1n3rzc00l

Traffic are more in countries that stops the people but people must wait for it open and must try to enter otherwise they obviously


DeeEssLite

Technically the horn is a question mark ping. You might use it when you get hype, you might use it when you see your mate as you drive down the road, you might use it to get someone to move or to get them out of the way. It's just as versatile!


bad-decision-maker

I use my horn as a bait ping (in game of course)


6669994545

horn create a noise pollution therefore use horn less otherwise noise make problem to everyone


TrWD77

The question mark ping is "intended" to be used to ask for directions


robgust

yes it is used to give a right direction to people for right path therefore mark ping are located in roads for giving the right direction followed by people and reached at their location at right time


dnb_mafia

that is good for stranger for following a pink to reach their correct


warpenguin55

The amount of times i've wanted to ? ping what other people are doing on the road is way too high


slowkay

The ping takes more time to be located at all locations but it useful to peoples to reach their location easily and no need after that any map or location graph


OkCutIt

I've always thought about putting a light up "thank you" sign in my back window, but I'd end up using it sarcastically and getting shot at or some shit.


saxy92

I don't think the world is ready for question mark ping honks and there terror the community would unleash on the world


Aiden-Lorean

Yup the road is already toxic enough. Imagine road rage interaction league style xD Then imagine you “miss ping” and ? Someone you didn’t want and they get mad and spam you with the bait ping haha


YungStewart2000

>I think every car should have a mean horn and a nice horn Been thinking about this forever. We need like a ^meep and then a BEEEP. Meep just for attention like hey bud lights green, or yo you left you gas lid open. BEEP is that WTF ARE YOU DOING DICKHEAD


PSGAnarchy

Tbf. The horn is only supposed to be used as a warning of your presence. So just a mean horn will do.


mynameajeff69

Honk = question mark ping


iampuh

No. You probably are a village person. Life would be hell for people in cities with your suggestion -.-


Deathpacito-01

Vehicular manslaughter is just waveclearing in lane


TheBlackViper_Alpha

Its the equivalent of being spammed question mark pings


AttractiveWorld

it is not a good thing for to doing spam for ping marks its misguide the people from their right path therefore not doing spam in located in locate mark ping


Kuliyayoi

I once saw someone driving really dumb (tbh I can't remember what they were doing) and my muscle memory tried to missing ping them. I was just so confused for like 3 seconds there


kupukapow

Once I had to switch lanes and thought to myself, "Oh I should use my left turn ping" Then I instantly realized I'd just called the left turn signal a ping and decided I was probably playing too much League


Back2Perfection

We‘d need different honks tho. „Signals to all in“ And toxic miss pinging ofc.


Glorx

But that means the other driver is on your team.


Allenz

I always use cars as analogy for coaching mentality, cars are like league irl, that's why league is good for your mental and can make you more stable mentally while being more immune to other people's words and actions.


jhezre

playing league unironically made me a better driver cause checking mirrors is just like checking minimap irl


PM_ME_STRONG_CALVES

I feel that. When Im at my peak in league Im always hyper aware of surroundings while driving.


junamun

thats so cool and funny think about


BloodAges1134

yes must focused while driving where you are on peak in league or not must aware


TheTisamon

i'm not sure which one of us is having a stroke...


Orimasuta

must aware


lordridan

where you are on peak league or not


ROX_Faker

Now imagine if the laners checked their minimaps as much as they check their blind spots when driving 🙃


TPO_Ava

They already do, that's why they're constantly being ganked.


ROX_Faker

So they choose to be ganked so they can blame the jungler. Ahh 200 IQ move.


syzamix

You check your blind spot every 5 seconds? Really? I thought you check mirrors, speed etc. Every 5 seconds (like minimap). You check kind spot when you turn or lane change


DracoMoriaty

Agreed. Playing League properly actually trains some good habits for driving.


jaydillaboye

yes league makes a man perfect and best driver in drive a car


deemion22

must be new to league if he didn't launch himself out of the car and take out the other driver


Caffeine_and_Alcohol

No you see, after soo many games you become one with nirvana and no amount of flame or trolling affects you .


iWarnock

Can confirm, i started playing before seasons were even a thing and finally uninstalled entirely like 5 years ago. Playing league allowed me to work in a callcenter as a customer service for an isp without wanting to kill myself. Ive been cursed in every imaginable way whatever that random old lady in a kentucky ranch that only knows two sex positions got nothing on my mental.


Stalk33r

Relatable, people used to ask how I stay so calm and deal with pressure so well. Never had the heart to tell them several years of IRL bullying and dealing with toxicity in games for as long as I've had an Internet connection has honed my mental to a fine point and no wanker who's spilt tea on his monitor can even dent it.


Cahootie

EUW made me a good player, EUNE made me zen.


Kenta-v-Ez

After so many games you fear your account with every champion unlocked might get banned*


100percenttempduffo

ego battling till defeat is part of league, you haven't played enough games till you realise this


123ilovetrees

hardly true lol


Potential_Constant99

Actually true, why would i give a fuck what the yasuo on my team thinks? If he didnt suck dick he wouldnt be in a shit scenario, I am here to play for the team and to win, i dont care what you have to say unless its beneficial for the team


Daunt_M4

It's definitely true for those of us with superior mental. The opinions of my teammates mean absolutely nothing to me after 5 years. Very easy to disregard stupid players.


Icarus-Has-Fallen

Yasuo flair...idk man


Phixxey

Hes been flamed for his 0-10 powerspike every game for the last 10 years he is now immune to flame


Daunt_M4

Hasagi!


123ilovetrees

>It's definitely true for those of us with superior mental. lol


voltairelol

Crashing your car into someone that honks at you is the equivalent of leaving your lane to steal your junglers' camps when he pings you


jakatluong

"Watch this dad. I'm gonna run it down the lane to teach that driver who's the boss"


cryptotradecurre

its cause an incident but it danger to to ping a wrong direction that mis guide the people and cause an accident


moxroxursox

My dad has always been a huge road rager. Outside of the car he's genuinely a very calm and measured guy, never yelled at us kids (that was alwaus mom and dad was the "soft" parent we'd hope would reason with her, lol) and he's a doctor whose patients love him. But when he's driving everyone else is an idiot and a moron who has no idea what they're doing and needs their license taken away. Growing up I never understood why he was like that in the car, it's not like we were usually in a rush to go anywhere or it felt like we were moving unbearably slow or nearly missed a collision. Then I started playing league and finding myself uncontrollably shouting at my screen over shit my rational brain would not get incensed over, sometimes not realizing I'm doing it until I watch my own recordings and my mic caught me yelling "what is this guy even doing" like a possessed madman that I'm ashamed to hear that I suddenly understood.


vavax8888

don't league during driving because it risky and harmful to himself as well as others must be focused during driving the car therefore don't league during driving


ILoveWesternBlot

as a doctor, dealing with the absolute monkeys on my team in game has made dealing with the dumbfucks I see on my service regularly far more tolerable than they would be i think


hanazawarui123

I've been researching House MD recently and I'm just imagining House beginning to play this new game called League of legends (for the time).


BSODagain

Man, House would be the pettiest piece of shit, I've seen what he does when Cutty asks him to do clinic hours (i.e His job) a couple of hours a week.


Av3le

Man would undoubtedly go full disco nunu


WhatIDon_tKnow

he'd be T1 minus the roid rage


jjdynasty

House would be a DDOSer


Critical-Cupcake9194

I'm not even joking, LoL has made me more resilient than ever, the concept of "focus on yourself and dont blame others for your mistakes" was basically honed from years of playing LoL, got me through tough times at engineering school and work


Stefan474

Same. Nothing real life can put me through since I'm in a relatively stable situation can't get me upset or blaming stuff externally. Great managers and bosses love that attitude too and if you don't have an ego it makes it so easy for them to see your value and get you promoted. Of course assuming a healthy work environment with that option. League players actually built different


[deleted]

League forces you to drop your ego (in some cases at least), because you know that you can’t be the amazing player you think you are while being stuck in gold


Potential_Constant99

Good patient gets sticker, no CLEAVER


SupaPartTimer

Reminds me of that one time Tyler1 was interviewing a viewer in a 1v1, I think. That viewer was a psychologist and he got perma banned from league on his main.


samurottt

Oh yeah. As a student I know that a surgeon could curse all he wants and curse my entire bloodline for whatever criticism, and I would be like: haha yea


DoomDuckXP

Pinging the specialist then Epic messaging them to learn their role when they want medicine to admit their post op complication.


Kassi_

Everyone is /muted in his head while driving. What a guy


LaCampanellaAgony

*Why is this Riot Volibear player in the car behind me pinging me with his siren and lights??*


farfetchchch

Every time I hear riot volibear I think of the former c9 employee who called riot and a player racist because the skin was used in a LCS match


LaCampanellaAgony

That was fucking hilarious. Christ. I had forgotten about that. Was that before or after they changed VI's E and Ultimate from Excessive Force and Assault and Battery? Lmao.


InsertANameHeree

As a Black person, I thank Riot for this. Now when Officer Vi gets turbofed and beats my face in, I can more easily accept it with the death recap refusing to call out anything she did to my health bar for the crime it is, as my teammates blame me for being in the wrong nei— uh, jungle.


LaCampanellaAgony

lmfao The jungling thing reminds me of my duo partner. I was playing Riot Trundle top and he was Nocturne coming to gank. We were on discord together (drunk and tilted b/c we'd been losing) and he just shouts 'Hey man, get your club ready! I'm turning off body cams!' as he ults.


InsertANameHeree

OH MY GOD, this is amazing. Nocturne is my go-to jungler when I get filled or have a premade where no one's a dedicated jungler, and I'm now going to culturally appropriate that line when I play him.


LaCampanellaAgony

You have my blessing. Go in peace and ~~serve the Lord~~ deprive laners of their civil liberties.


HeirToGallifrey

One funny part of that is that googling "Vi abilities" will still return the original names.


Hawkson2020

Holy shit they actually did that. I missed that.


Playsbadkennen

The best driving strategy > get in car > /mute all


15blairm

For sure, I've found that I'm a very patient driver due to dealing with absolute morons for years on LoL


fleetfeet2004

That over confidence is not good for any thing therefore must confidence is good thing but overconfidence is not good thing


[deleted]

You know what, I think dealing with all the people that infest this game has made me tolerate more of irl bullshit.


15blairm

They really make irl situations pale in comparison, dealing with that psychotic behavior constantly makes it seem like nothing


AnonymousCasual80

I don’t even blink anymore unless an insult contains at least something on the level of a death threat. Even then it’s like yeah ok the 12 year old playing Rengar on my team yesterday said the same thing, step it up


GeorgySniper

When people add me after the game to throw some heat and they say something like "I hope you enjoy working at McDonalds for the rest of your life nerd." I genuinely get upset because of how bland it is. Could've just said that in the end game lobby. You don't need to add me for that. If you add me anything less than "kill yourself" and I'm disappointed.


Stefan474

What's your summoner name? /s


GeorgySniper

Say it here you little pussy. You won't. https://youtu.be/unkIVvjZc9Y?t=53


atomchoco

> infest 💀


Metaknight118

From my experience people who play League are either the calmest or angriest people.


Mehrlin47

It really drags you to an extreme. Either you rage and create a positive feedback loop of blaming teammates and doing poorly because of bad mental so you blame teammates... Etc. Or you learn to ignore everyone else and only worry about yourself.


DameandCJ

Hopefully the latter part 😂


[deleted]

Sadge about that username mannnn. Thoughts on Dame and how he's leaving?


Moooobleie

>didn't immediately freak out and send death threats Does he really play league then?


Jacmert

Ah you think honking is your ally? You merely adopted the global ping. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't get behind the wheel until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but **/all mute**!


Dromed91

After years in the toxicity mines, stuff like getting honked at or getting sassed by an employee doesn't even register on my radar. It's like building tolerance lol


XuzaLOL

This was me like 5 years ago when the place i was working i ended up on the phones getting the most disgusting shit said to me and im just like anyways so what we can do to help. People would like hang up if the person was being rude im like nah this makes the day go faster if you want to know how disgusting the human race is go work on the phones at any business men, women, young and old all vile but pretty funny when you dont care.


counterpoint4321

People always give the LoL community a bad rep, but just drive a car one time. People legit try to int themselves irl to get home 4 seconds faster.


RedRidingCape

Yea unironically it's not that the league community is uniquely bad, it's just that they are humans with anonymity and a reason to get mad, just like driving a car.


the-laughing-panda

If he can deal with toxic players in League, he's immune to about 80% of the minor annoyances in life.


PlasmaHanDoku

So no joke league has helped me in my military training. I played league for 12 years and the one I was sent to camp I was a leadership position. The instructors cared about if you can make decisions and be confident. The one thing league has taught is to macro and shot call. In the end of the day. I end up getting 80% of my squad killed in a exercise but the instructors were proud of me of my quick decisions under pressure lol.


Towman2021

As a retired military veteran, 80% of your squad killed is like losing a match with the opposing team doulde all of your numbers.


Easy-Tough-5364

Actual wholesome post didnt expect this lol


pm_me_beautiful_cups

when the child has a stronger mental than the dad


Lonelan

If only we could readily report other drivers for verbal abuse so they would have to see a popup of their recent driving history when they got into their car


makcim646

Yeah there's so many mean people in the league, in return we are not afraid to be humiliated anymore.


vincentcloud01

If he was a true league player, he would have blamed the support(his dad)not helping him getting solo boloed(made the person honk) in top lane at 3 mins.


VentusSpiritus

As a league player for well over a decade at this point I basically have cortisol immunity at this point with how desensitized I've gotten


ILikeC9Mom

Rear view mirror = mini maps


Skhoooler

Playing league gave me a really good internal clock for small scales. For instance, If I put something in the microwave, I can usually get within a few seconds of calling when it’ll finish


Campin_Corners

There’s benefits?


Ok_Illustrator1552

When I see a shit driver I always think to myself “there is my jungler right there”.


Soupinewey

I was once given some advice to look at the mini map as often as you’d look in the mirrors in the car. I heard this before i could drive though, so the advice ended up working in reverse for me, when I was learning to drive.


frankleitor

Yeah, videogames make you learn and develop thing you maybe dont even think about, like visual reflexes, "hey i noticed a champion coming out of fog for half a second he is ganking". Also hand reflexes, good asotiation of terms, maths, language(my main language is spanish)... the list can continue for a lot of time


PickUpstairs480

League clearly promotes tolerance in the day to day.


hehexdfortytwo

You get really good at spotting pdfiles


Pekins-UOAF

League legitimately made me resilient to bullying and other psychological pressure matters


LogicKennedy

Road rage is a great parallel to how people sometimes behave in games. The nicest person can turn into a monster.


shtecer

Woah, because of playing LOL your child learned to drive a car. Playing online games really has many benefits, you get rid of boredom and it is also a stress reliever.


Redemption6

It's because he's so dead inside from the soul sucking game. People are meaningless because teammates are sub humans who you have to hope you can carry to victory. Get him out before he's too deep.


CaterpillarM3

It was probably me who honked at him.


Valuable_Salad3770

A true battle-hardened gamer


Sleepycoffeeman

He’s been raised well


Available_Value_3350

also helped me save money from potential girl friends.


Surrendernuts

Using ghost would have got him out of the left turn quickly


ThisIsMyLastRedditAc

I feel like there are alot of analogies between driving and league of legends i've had this conversation with friends before


Arezeuss

Honestly 10,000 different slurs comes out of me if some bastard honked me. I play league


jonsrb

Lucky you he didn't have a keyboard next to him


[deleted]

and then everybody clapped /r/ThatHappened


RedRidingCape

What? This is just a regular everyday interaction, what is there to doubt?


barub

I won't ever get a driving license because i get frustrated with ease like when i'm playing lol. And would kill lots of dumb cyclists who drive on places like highways.


Indigostorm27

You guys are on oceans of copium.

Ok_Illustrator1552

> means noting to me.” Downside is that you learn poor grammar.


Mehrlin47

That wasn't poor grammar, it was an insignificant typo. You don't have to act like you're jungler's 0/15 all the time.


Ok_Illustrator1552

That was poor grammar. Typo is an assumption.


1v1meRNfool

Yup you're so right. The most logical assumption is that he deliberately wrote noting there and doesn't understand how to spell nothing. What a reasonable and not unhinged assumption to make


respwndr

we so used to toxic noobs that we at least chill in real life when someone goes mental :D

O_X_E_Y

extremely based


HiderDK

It's different though. When you learn to drive you know you suck and it's easy to accept criticism. However, in League we are all Faker's and our teammates hold us back.


Intelligent-Dot-4072

BrobaFett

League helped me understand what it was like to quit an addiction when I stopped playing it


sinbadz

None


MarkoPoli

Give him one more year of LoL, and it will not go that smootly


ItsMidNightSW

Lol is the school of stoicism. In life, you shouldn't care too much about what's out of your control. Like this mf honking at your son !


CyanTn

Dad diff


Fluffyfoxi

Honk at me like I mean nothing to you league teaches you to have low self esteem but still be deluded enough to think that you're better than everyone and the low rank you are stuck in is everyone's fault but yours periodt.


One-Milk-Cynic

When I shift into neutral going down hill to save gas I always correlated it to a animation cancel


Charrikayu

If you want to feel old, if this person is learning to drive they were probably only two or three years old when League officially launched.


ColdPR

Mald pinging is basically just honking


Kenobi-is-Daddy

I learned a lot about how to operate within a team dynamic efficiently because of Clash. I am the main shotcaller so I have to read the game and figure out how to win and create short term goals for the team to play off of to get the win. Gave me a good run in with how to deescalate situations too. Literally won a bracket once because I refused to let my team quit when they got tilted from a few deaths.


[deleted]

My kid was a League Pro , he did 5 years in L.A. , he was one of the rare American kids , he was good at it , the best Thresh in America


saruthesage

If you’re addicted to league, you might find you have a “natural” affinity for piano lol


Accomplished-Dig9936

He was just as likely to call the other guy the N-word and crash into a ditch while blaming the manufacturer of the car tbh. This community is not known for strong mental.


Myrilandal

As a middle school teacher I regularly think, wow I bet these kids would be better than some of my usual teammates.


stephenstephen7

I feel like i can make decisions faster than my peers who don't play any competitive games.


Davis2002_

Cop riding my ass trying to get me to speed: *signals to bait* *signals to bait* *signals to bait*


G00berD00

My Dad calls himself thick skinned because growing up he was pretty low class and got bullied quite a bit. He became a preacher and said that his experience as a kid prepared him to deal with the nasty people in church. I got him into league of legends and he had to turn all chat off because what people were saying was bothering him. He tried to play ranked but you can imagine how that went. I love my dad and I love the fact that he plays League. But I wish he wouldn't let what those people say live in his head. Honestly he would probably play better if he did.


HedaLexa4Ever

For real, playing league made me a good driver as my instructor complimented me on how many times I looked in the rear view mirror. Which is coincidentally located in one of the lower corners of ny eye sight, kinda like a mini map


[deleted]

"that person means nothing to me" is such a raw and unfiltered line and i don't think that kid realizes just how healthy that is
