Man, I miss my manual transmition. All I drove up until this most recent car was a standard.

I've always wanted to attempt to drive a stick, but nobody I know has one, lol.

I really want to learn to drive stick, mainly because of the fact that I'd love to have one of the old cars. And I think that it would be a good thing to learn anyways.

And I'm really tempted to look up Hellsing/Black Butler fanfics now.

You could probably get an old car that they'd turned automatic. It's probably known as a sacrilege car in that circle, but I don't doubt they exist, haha.

Hey! Look who's back! >.>

Aww, I'd love to learn to drive a stick as well. I mean, there's nothing wrong with only knowing Automatic, but overall? Stickshift gets better mileage, the cars are at least a little cheaper and I think you need to know how to drive one if you plan on going overseas (and driving). So, it has it's perks. I'm just not terribly patient. Learning to drive once was irritating enough.

Oh gawd. Learning to drive. I'm glad that's shit you only have to do once. >.>

And, really? Are the Europeans so lame that they still only have stick shifts? Wow.

Welcome back, btw. :)

haha Thanks!

I don't know. I think it's just because in order to drive over there you have to get an International License. So you have to know a LOT more about driving. And if you're renting a car, there's no guarantee that an automatic will be available. Though, it really wouldn't surprise me if they mainly drove stick shifts. If driving stick gets you better mileage, and gas over there is way more expensive than it is here since they charge per Liter so that they're paying basically double what we pay for a usual tank of gas.

I could be wrong on the details, though. I'm only going off of what my dad told me years ago. :lol: I'm trying to research it more now, since I got myself curious.

@ Ely: Yeah, no thanks. And there's something that I find oddly charming about stick shift, especially in an old car.

How is it that an anime as dark, creepy, and just plain insane as Black Butler is this funny!

I like stick shift too. :) I know that if I ever went and got like...say...one of those new Camaros I'd probably give a stick shift a thought...I think it looks cool. And, well, they go faster. :ninja:

That's very interesting, Starr.

I seriously think it would be in my best interests in getting an international driver's license so that I'd be able to drive in other countries once I move out of the US.

I almost lost my mind at work. I'm so damn tired and in desperate need of a real day off. I'm gonna get smashed tonight while I do work. It's the next best thing.

I'm hardly keeping myself sane. And procrastinating and oversleeping isn't helping at all. Bah. If tomorrow isn't productive, I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

Yeah. I agree with Taiyo. If college doesn't make you insane, it needs to be fired for not doing its job correctly...I, however, was insane before I met College.

I know what that's like. You're sleepy as hell, but you can't get to sleep no matter how hard you try.
