You should get out of my way before I get that close.

What if I have your precious baby girl and she’s fallen down and bonked her little noggin and I’m taking her to the hospital and she BLEEDS OUT AND DIES because you are a dick?

It does.. there is a little pulley uppy thingy on the shifter. on the cobra sofa, reverse is so hard to get into that it isn’t a problem.

One of my cars is a 6 speed the other is a 5 speed. I have found myself reaching for the shifter to shift into “6th” on the 5 speed. luckily, I have not (yet) found reverse.

My dad told me not to even pull over. just stop in the middle of the highway or *I* would be buying a new wheel.

What do you think he was trying to tell me?

(A frequent piece of advice from him was “go play in traffic”)

Oh, it works fine, but the namby pamby police won’t let you drive in prison.

Jerks.

I prefer Mel Brooks:

Marge FTW

fair enough.

Raph, sometimes you just have to fuck up to learn. So my Male parental unit was a mechanical genius. I had on old (‘75) Civic that burned more oil than it did gas and he tore into it and oversaw/taught me how to install new rings and bearings. He’d never seen a Honda before.
Flash forward a couple of years and I have…
