Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

I do feel sorry for you other driving-challenged individuals. There is a difference between someone knowing they are a good driver and someone thinking they are.

I expect you (you = people who challenge my obvious skill behind the wheel) are jealous.

Anyone who knows the limitations of their vehicle and safely challenges those limits is a good driver.

You excuse for men who cannot drive just feel threatened by a female driver.

On that note: grow some balls

Because some guys can forgive idiocy if it has a vagina attached to it. This vagina already claims it likes orgasms.

That said, this thread has steadily been declining ever since about halfway down page 1, and I wish I could change my vote from "Whatever" to "Total Crap" right about now.

Since I figure everyone deserves some kind of second chance, here's a bit of advice. Wheter or not you heed it completely up to you, but regardless...

Noone is jealous of your self-boasted driving abilities. We have nothing but your word for them, and it doesn't really impress anyone on the grand scale of the internet. Driving "crazy fast" is indeed not driving safe, unless you are A) Psychic or B) Omnipotent, as it is quite impossible to control everything outside the limited sphere of yourself. This has nothing to do with wheter you have a penis or a vagina. Which brings me to my second point.

Noone is impressed by "grow some balls aight im da shiz playin' it real". In an enviroment devoid of anygthing but sheer written communication you are what you present yourself as - and currently you present yourself as someone who makes contradictory claims, back the up with grandoise statements, and gets flustered, bothered, and resorts to personal attack when people don't take them for gospel.

Or, cliffnotes version that ought to fit your driving interest:

Your ego is accelrating, steering out of control, and heading straight for a brick wall. Slow down and do a U-turn.

My advice. Drop the arguement and let it be. Its impossible to show your driving skills to the board, without some form of video, so people will automatically look to a study over your word. Doesn't mean you can't drive well, its just that nobody can (nor really should) believe you.

Then in a few days, post your pictures. If you're decent looking and don't act like an attention whore, you'll have the inevitable swooning by a large part of the male population of the board and this will be forgotten. The male population tends to overlook any personality problems of female board members if they get pictures. Sexist? Yup. Stupid? Yup. Just the way it happens here, for better or worse. That should balance everything out.

You like driving, great, talk about driving all you want but giving off that 'If you disagree it's because you don't know how to drive'-vibe won't earn you friends. If you said something along the lines of 'Hey guys, I really like to drive.' no one would have said anything but 'Hey guys, I really like to drive, I am also steering wheel Jesus, PS: You all hate me because I said I'm a girl.' prompted the responses you got.

You can upload to a profile or an external host.

Being a good driver does NOT mean that you know how to drive fast. Anyone can drive fast, and with the right amount of luck, never get into an accident. Too bad that kind of luck doesn't exist. Being a good driver has nothing to do with speed, and everything to do with awareness, prediction, and judgement. Driving fast is poor judgement, therefore you've already failed the 'Good driver' test. It's a very harsh exam. I invite you to try again once you feel you're up to it.

Let's take this in order.

1) You mentioned driving along with all the other things.

2) Bloodsage prodded at something you said which was fairly self-contradictory.

3) You defended yourself. In among this you say a bunch of stuff like "speeding isn't dangerous" which is idiotic but REGARDLESS of that...

4) 2 or 3 people challenge you, rather civilly, on "speding isn't bad"

5) Everyone is jealous because you're so awesome.

Did I miss a leap of logic?
