US, late 20s. I’ve been driving manual transmissions on the farm since I could reach the pedals. All but two vehicles I’ve ever owned are manual. Its my preference, especially since I’m my own mechanic and hate working with autos.

I like cars, but specifically boring old cars. Supercars don’t do anything for me, I think normal “enthusiast” cars are pretty boring, and the communities around them can kinda suck. But I will totally nerd out about your grandma’s bingo-mobile she bought new in the 80s.

If I had a nickel for every time someone has been disgusted by the idea of me killing and processing animals, while they were eating meat, I’d have like 3 nickels. Which is way too many nickels.
