Why you should apply the brakes:

I don't have mine, at age 20 - but I'm struggling to get it now. At 16, I was the most unpopular kid in a town full of hicks, where the only attraction was the Wal-Mart.

Of course, now that I'm seeing a guy who lives in the next state, I dearly wish I had it already.

I'm licensed! I actually used to work as a delivery driver before I got all educated and left my blue collar behind for a high profile job with a massive salary.

In other news, I don't currently own a car because I can't afford to buy one.

I didn't get my license until the summer before I started college. Just a few weeks before, in fact. And the only reason I did was because otherwise I'd have had to ride with my mom (whose office is only a few blocks from campus), and she leaves at some ridiculous hour like 7:00 AM or something.

I'm not taking a car with me when I leave. Even once you learn how to drive one, they're entirely too much trouble (and expensive) to keep up. My commute is an hour each way as it is, I don't think it'll be much of a stretch to adapt to public transportation.

The hell with cars.

I'll try to get a shot where you can't see my double chin.

I'll just find something else to make fun of, you know that.

I'm starting school again in January, so I have to fucking get mine before then. But until then, three month vacation :-D. Well, shit, I graduated in June so it's more like a 6 month vacation, three months left.

Oh, and Del. Sorry about the car, but I do love the bumper stickers. I can make out the Jesus-Man, System of a Down, "Small Town," "Watch Your Kid," and "Homophobia is..." stickers, but what does the last one say? Is it "Guns Don't Kill People, Those Who Play Videogames Kill People"? Either way, I do enjoy the overall snarkiness of your back bumper.

That came out wrong, didn't it?

My friend put new wheels on his car, and was driving down the street with his newly pimped out ride, when the car suddenly tilted to one side. He assumed he had just driven onto a big pot hole or something, until he looked out the window and saw one of his wheels rolling in the opposite direction.

Apparently he forgot to tighten his lugnuts. Oh well.

And why the hell do you drive a Mercury?!

Because she can't afford a giant robot, that's why.

Or at least that's the case with my family.

Close -- "Kids Who Play Videogames Kill People". And thanks. ^_^ I need a new bumper sticker collection now, though. My new car just sits there, unstickered, and it makes me sad.

I can't drive yet, seeing as I'm only 14. But I'll be 15 in January. All my friends say drivers ed sucks, so I'm not looking forward to it, but I want a license anyway just so I can drive myself to the mall and Gamestop whenever I want. The only bad thing though, is that every fucker at school just HAS to talk about cars to some extent or another, and if you don't like cars than you obviously aren't a "man". But yeah, I'll get my dad's Jeep Wrangler when I turn 16 (thats the one where the top comes down, right?)

Heck if I know. I'm Asian, and I don't know jack about cars other than the fact that Japanese cars > American cars. It's stupid because all these other AZNs are all car freaks that like to faggot up their vehicles and call it "rice". Idiots.

Thank you! It's annoying, even "AZN" kids who aren't even old enough to drive go on about their Asian cars 'n crap. Hell, once I even saw this kid who had put pictures of cars in his little TI-83+ SE calculator!

This was between me and one of my Korean friends:

"You should check out my car afterschool."
"The Honda CR-X?"
"Yeah, you seen it?"
"No, but I know how you ricers love your Hondas."

And I'm glad he thought that was funny, because he could kick my ass.
