It's the difference of having a girlfriend - or paying a "pro" to do it for you.


Different strokes indeed...

So, in your mind, women are like things?

RE: I don't know how they do it.
Obviously anecdotal, but as much as I like making shit, and making shit work..it really doesnt strike me as being anything like fucking.

Maybe you should open a shop, if the two seem so similar? Particularly in light of how, apparently, all the mechanics where you're from are grifty assholes. You'd clearly be good at it, and people like me could pay people like you so that we don't have to waste our time doing the menial labor you describe, in that comparison.

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

You must be very proud of your ignorance and resistance to education.

And you must think that theory trumps real life.


I find that what applies in reality is the method I prefer.

So in your mind parallel means equal?

You know how to tell an honest mechanic?

He doesn't want to work on your car.


He' s got better things to do.

Some people get really pissy with me when I tell them I won't work on their cars.

RE: I don't know how they do it.
I would love to know how mechanical stuff works.
I have a problem, and I'm not trying to be funny, but I can't do things if they bore me.
And I also find it hard to care about money, even though know I should.
Luckily I do have a skill and that is to get other people to do things for me for free.
I suppose they get the benefit of my cheery company.
With a little effort I can also manage to pretend I'm listening to what they're saying about my car while they're fixing it. :-)

Many women are expert at that.

I promise to never get pissy if you refuse to work on my cars.
