I went into a servo with a star wars shirt on once, how dare I, I know, guy behind the counter did his absolute best to make sure I didn’t know enough about the franchise to be a TRUE fan, and I was just faking for attention.
Should have told him that Disney started sucking after the original trilogy. Watch him have a stroke.
I’ve experienced the opposite situation lots of times.
Just because I ride a bike does not mean I am a mechanic or fix stuff myself. Far from it, I leave that to a professional. Most people seem to think all men tinker on their bikes.
funny comic downvote because you cut off the artists signature
Did they edit the post? I can clearly see the creators insta in the bottom right corner
The idiots didn’t open the whole image… apparently.
When I open the image it’s still cut off. Using Voyager
Let’s see… both males portrayed suck… who cares about corvettes anyway. And then he burns rubber…
OMG the amount of gate keeping that goes on in car “communities” is beyond the pale, absurd and constantly shift.
Its really funny to see EVs coming on the scene with insane 0-60 times and horsepower numbers only for chuds to now claim that those things don’t matter.
EVs have completely killed “the car guy” to me. Like you can just buy a run-of-the-mill EV and it can easily have better overall performance characteristics, better energy efficiency, and require less maintenance than a random “sports car”.
But hey, I guess it doesn’t go “vroom-vroom”, set off everyone’s car alarm on the street when it passes, and doesn’t function as a dead giveaway that you’re an asshole creep who is having trouble masking their psychopathy.
Seriously.
I had a guy in an I forgot what something manly or whatever with rude stickers about liberals or something on the back try to beat me off the line when was driving my leaf.
It was a complete joke. The instant torque evs have is ridiculous.
LMAO!
but they dont have an Exhaust man!!!
I saw a comment in a car thread in a general interest community that claimed that if you couldn’t drive with a manual gearbox, you shouldn’t be issued a license.
I am a Swede and this was on a Swedish forum.
Most people here knows how to drive manually, I don’t, and I drive far better than plenty of manual drivers.

For people who’ve had a genuine opportunity to learn and couldn’t figure it out then I would kind of support this. If someone can’t figure out a basic coordination exercise then I don’t really trust them to handle the controls of a couple of tons of moving vehicle.
I do realise though that many people don’t have a proper opportunity to learn (no vehicle to do so in or a poor instructor) so most get an exception from this judgement.

I assume, to maintain consistency of your judgment, you also regularly turn off ABS, traction control, cover up the backup camera screen only turning around and looking out your back window when reversing? An electric starter also is a bit of a luxury too, right? Do you usually push your car forward with your feet and pop the clutch to start the car, or are you a true purist that uses an old school handcrank mated to the engine’s crankshaft? Wouldn’t these all be, matching the theme of your definition, basic coordination exercises that someone must be able to handle to control them to control a couple of tons of moving vehicle?

Correct. I would not expect people to know how to do these things but I would expect a competent person to be able to learn them.
As an American, I sort of understand that argument for Europe more, because everything I’ve read says manual is more common, but still, how often are you going to be in some scenario where you’re forced to drive a manual? Like if you’re bad at driving a bigger truck, you just shouldn’t do that on busy roads until your comfortable. I don’t view these types of things as necessary knowledge for driving.
Oh yeah the Manual purists are the worst. I get it for hobby driving and project cars, but to hell with driving a manual for commuting.
Why cut off creator’s signature? 😢
Its not cut off on mine
Can you see it now? Maybe OP edited the post after catching flak.
“Oh? How many of the 45 product recalls on your Charger did you fix yourself instead of taking it to the dealer?”
That’s a Challenger.
No, it’s just a drawing.
it’s a pipe, sir
This is not a Dodge Challenger.
Okay
The Treachery of Memes

“bro, that’s a challenger”
Potato potato, they’re both land boats built like a three legged rhinoceros with the worst front sight lines I’ve ever seen.
Nothing in the world would elate me more than having a dbag who looks and acts like that tell me that I’m not a part of his group.
You need other people to feel validated or elated? Well you can’t call yourself a real lemming then.
I look and act like a tool irl as well, trust me. You’re welcome.
I would wager a shiny nickel that you’re actually quite cool irl.
He’s actually a human guy, not a car guy.
A car guy is Bumblebee from Transformers.The man with the backwards hat is confused.
