Yes, yes, but can you drive it properly or is it an automatic?
um, I don't drive automatics...
at least, not since my first car...
I prefer the manual stick shift...
so if that answers your question of "properly" then yes of course I can...
if you want to get into semantics of who can drive "properly" then the answer is no one in my city but me...
ha!
Just remember who taight you to drive a stick shift...properly.
Indeed.
Over here the thinking is that people who drive automatics are spastics; the cars are almost impossible to get hold of, and nobody in England will ever admit to being so spaz that they would ever have to drive one...it is hilarious to us that they are so popular in the States...
Hey you - "Christopher", why did you change your name from "Dirty Chris"?
Don't know really.... just that no one has called me that in about 9 years. I think I'll just stick with my name.
Over here it's harder to get a manual shift car, since dealers mostly get automatics since that what everyone buys. Only really cool people like me and Mike drive stick shifts. I've never owned an automatic and hopefully never will.
I suppose I'll always still be "goob" I just don't use that to sign my blog entries for some reason.
i remember, i remember my crash course... ha ha ha
late night at KI parking lot...
then you remember I had to drive the damn thing up from KY... ha ha ha
I miss my prelude
that's wierd... i just noticed your name wasnt dirty anymore... funny that abs picked on it first...
I'm a girl.
We notice things that you lot don't...like new clothes, hair cuts and name changes...
YOU'RE A GIRL????
ha ha ha
um i was kidding...
you see it was a joke cause you said... and i was all like...
*sigh*
okay, i'll shut up now
I'll set the killer koalas on you...
for what???
what did i do this time???
Shhhh!
They'll guess the plan...
who wil??? what plan???
Yes...quite...(ahem)
...Anyway...back to what I was saying - where did the name "Goob" come from?
I'll let him answer that one...
The name goob came when we were all working at Pizza Hut, and a guy named Mike Earl was trying to find a nickname for me. He kept trying a bunch of different nicknames, most of which no one in their right mind would let themselves be called, so I refused to let anyone call me by any of them. One of them was "uncle booby" which of course I said no to, then he said what about "uncle gooby", and I just said that it wasn't AS bad. They all actually just started calling me Goob, and eventually it stuck, and eventually I gave up hoping for a cooler nickname. So basically it doesn't mean anything, just something they started calling me until it became more my name than my actual name. For a long time there were people who knew me but didn't actually know my real name.
Ah, I see.
No-one ever bothered to give me a nick-name; its always been Abi, Abs, Ab, Little Ab or variations thereof. Not that I'm complaining, of course...
Abs isn't a bad nickname though. I can't really shorten my name to anything else other than chris, and that doesn't even qualify as a nickname. So I'm forced to make something up. My old friend Anna was the one who used to call me dirtychris, back in high school. Other than that goob is the only other nickname I've had. Unless you count Gator..... but that's just my fraternity name in a made up frat.
I like the name "Dirty Chris"; it makes me laugh (which is why I wondered why you'd changed it in the first place). Not that its any of my business, of course, I was just being nosy -grin-
ah yes... that good old fraternity... "I Felter Thigh"
that was back in your drinking days wasn't it???
ha ha ha
gator...
what about scuba... i gave you that one too
isn't abs a nickname???
or is that a muscle... i forget sometimes...
anyway, it's a whole lot better than Mike, or Mikey...
bleh
but nobody wanted to nickname me either... wasn't significant enough for one of those... so I nicknamed myself sib before anyone could give me a worse one...
*sigh*
still only two people in my lifetime have refered to me as sib... most still come up with the usual insults... like, "dick, ass, asshole, jerkface, poopy-pant-farmer-boy" you know, stuff like that...
Well, Abs could be a nick-name, but in my case its just short for Abigail - and I don't think that really counts...
I've tried to think some up but I'm not very good at that. Its easier to name my future cats..things like Satan, Bellezbub, 'Orance (after (l)Orance of Arabia)...
that's true, but at least it's not abby or something like that... it may be just my own personal experience but abby's are always quite rotund girls...
just a side note though...
he he he
abs is like myself being called "my"
hell no, that wont do...
i'd rather have poopy-pant-farmer-boy than that...
Hahahahaha...nope, I'm not rotund!
I'm a dancer for fuck's sake! -grin-
How come they call you a poopy-pant-farmer-boy? I thought you lived in a city?
A long time ago, I used to have this pair of jeans which had plenty of holes in them and the ass of the jeans was quite faded... so the same guy who came up with the nick name "goob" used to call me Poopy-pant-farmer-boy... but that was only when I wore that pair of jeans... which from that point on was not much... at least round him...
Ah...
