This is one of my all-time favorite RTGame videos; I end up coming back to it every few months. It really has everything: Drift King lore, Mercedes product placement, the sponsored apology video segment, dark pizza math, questionable Irish testing materials, and then ending with some legitimate Mario Kart rivalry and the final return of the Drift King. Each segment is hilarious in its own way and it's just such a good all-encompassing example of why I enjoy RT's stuff so much. Cheers to you, the Once and Future Drift King.

[@walter3934]

The Drift King isn't a title for the best drifter, Dan. It's about the spirit, the love for the game. A good drifter could pull a drift once. A great one does it many times. It's about the spirit. The heart. It's about drive. The drive to drift.

If I had the Hatsune escape prompt in my pre-college exams, I'd write about her trying to escape all the drooling neckbeards chasing her like AOT titans and wishing she could go back to the digital world. I'd write about her hiding behind a dumpster in an alley, crying to herself, "why did I ever leave," while clutching her head with her head between her legs as the streets past the dumpster are filled with creeps sniffing the air. One would place his hand on the corner of the building next to the alley and when he moves on with the rest of the hunting otakus, a cheeto dust hand print would be left behind. Basically, if she wasn't stuck in a computer, her life would be a living nightmare.

Ah, finally a question RT has posed that I can answer. So, upon my expertise working at an upscale pizza joint, I can say that our store can produce somewhere around 100 large pizzas an hour. However, this is with a working crew of 5 chefs, 4 counters and a supervisor. Assuming the skeleton crew of a dominos, which at peak hours seems to have on average 3 workers of which I assume all can make pizza, they could probably pump out 20-40 pizzas an hour assuming they have a conventional pizza oven. taking the middleground of 30 pizzas an hour, and assuming rt's chat wouldnt wait more then 3 hours (as I dont think ive seen a customer wait more then that long ever), you have 90 pizzas per dominos. As such, for each of the 4000 veiwers to get a pizza you'd need to call 45 dominos to have them work for 3 hours straight. Good luck RT!

Speaking of weird exam questions: during one of my Spanish lessons at high school, we were told to translate the classic song Let it Go, from Disney’s Frozen. We were played the song in Spanish, and had to translate it back to English. I was terrible at Spanish. I got top marks in that exam, and I had to explain that my sudden increase in understanding of the Spanish language did not come from me copying off of someone else, but did, in fact, come from me having memorised the lyrics to a Disney song. My teacher didn’t believe me until I sang (pretty well, I should mention) a part of the song. Of course, I had to stay behind after class to do that, but not having to sing in front of my class did save what little reputation I had left at school.
