    I just don't see the point of driving stick if you don't have to. If someone made me drive stick, I'd think I was being punished.

      Manual transmission is just another thing for me to have to pay attention to while driving and my honda accelerates perfectly adequately.

        So...no.

        ACK!
        Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

            I know, it's hard enough juggling my phone, McMuffin, and Sudoku puzzle while driving.

              Are there any video games where you can literally kick people in the ass?

              I have a need to do this now.

                I've never driven one, guess I should give up my car stealing dreams.

                  I bet he learned real quick.
                  No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                        Me too. The dealer taught him how to drive it on the lot.

                          I sold my brother's manual to my sister-in-law and had to teach her before i turned it over. It was not a fun experience.

                              I learned to drive on a stick shift, but my car is an automatic. I can't wait for self-driving cars to become available.
