People always talk about the decline of the manual transmissions, but dang it, it's a useful life skill. You never know when you're going to be stuck out with someone who DOES have a manual car who's too drunk/tired/whatever to drive it.

I just bought myself a Jeep as a college graduation present. I didn't know how to drive a stick but was determined I was going to learn dammit. The salesman kept trying to talk me out of it because "a lot of ladies prefer automatics." Uhm no dick head I want a fucking stick and a 4x4!!!

You weren't damaged goods. You were healing.

Oy vey. :(

This is really good, for a Lifehacker article (come on, somebody had to do it).

I'm having a wedding this VDay at my new house. It is a very small wedding and, originally, was just going to be the two of us. Several others insisted they wanted to come so they will be there also.

I ate too many gummy worms *turns green*
