I had no idea that this was the actual origin of the terms but yes, I just looked it up, it was due to the unintended acceleration of the Audi 5000 is why its associated with leaving quickly, because that is what this vehicle did.

Yes, I’m Audi/Outtie evolved from the saying I’m Audi 5000. We are about the same age so that tracks.

no for leaving, like you are leaving a place and you say “I’m Audi 5000” to the people there instead of saying Good Bye.

This is old because the Audi 5000 first gen was introduced in the 1970s. Its surviving because I just said it like 3 days ago. It lives on in me 🥹

Verbal memes count? I still say “I am Audi 5000” or “Peace in the Middle East ✌️” when I am leaving. The latter being pretty sad that it is still relevant today from the day I stated using it.

Not sure where you got that from? You are free to become addicted to anything you want.

My unpopular option is that addiction is not genetic, if you take an addictive substance long enough you will become addicted, no one is exempt from this.

I am sure I will be down voted on Lemmy for this but using AI for development by a team who is already experienced in development of the product they are working on is not a moral failing.

This is 100% true for heroin. If you pressed through and still did it enough times even if you thought it was meh, you would eventually become addicted, because that is how brain chemistry works. It is not the high people are chasing when they get addicted, its relief from the withdraws.

Anyone can become an addict, it is not a genetic trait. If you use any additive substance long enough you will being addicted, there is no if, its just a matter of when.

This includes alcohol and more people are addicted to alcohol then they want to admit.
