You know what dude, I've tried to make a concerted effort to be nicer to you because I'd like to believe this is all in good fun and whatnot, but you're just being a total ****ing asshat towards me and I really don't appreciate it. I thought we all were cool and whatnot, but you putting me on your ignore list and then insulting me at every turn does sincerely hurt man. Whatever. Everyone's tired of my shenanigans anyway so I'll just relieve you all of them.

See you around or whatever.

I am 42 and I have never learned how to drive. Personally I just don't really want my driver's license. Everything I need is within walking distance. Besides I'd rather let other people with better multitasking reflexes and better eyesight drive for me because there's way too much for me to remember and I know I'll get into an accident. I tend to daydream a lot more than pay attention to things around me and I lose my focus. So yeah, driving just isn't for me.

P.S. Vehicles are way too much hassle and cost a lot of money anyway.

I'm sure other people love driving you around too. That doesn't sound like an unreasonable burden at all.
 
So much good **** on this page.
 
I don't drive either, and I'm 2. Learning, though. I just have my own issues with trusting me with a screaming metal deathtrap.

I'm a day dreamer too, but I do need my driver's license.
And now that I got it, I can drive, and focus on the road.

Then you don't want to try riding a motorbike.
I hit the pavement, twice, in training.

I think the reason for my disinterest is that in my family there's a lot of ADD. When I look back in school if I was interested in something, like English or Art class, I was laser focused. But if it was something I didn't have an interest in or a class where the lectures were long with no variety I'd drift off into some other world inside my mind. I recall in 10th Grade Math class I was seated next to the windows (Not a good place to put me if you want my attention by the way.) and it started to rain. Well as the teacher was talking I was drifting off into space watching the rain falling outside the open window. For a few minutes the teacher was asking me to close the window and I didn't hear him, I was that focused on the rain. I did eventually snap out of it when the kid in front of me said the teacher wanted the window closed. It's weird that I can focus on some things with fervor but not be able to in other areas. I guess hyper intelligence in some areas makes you deficient in others, like the stories that Einstein, brilliant in Physics, was rumored to be unable to tie his shoes or walk across a street without help. That shows you the level of laser focus he had on his complex equations in his head.

And you're one of those people, huh?

*shrugs* I guess I might be. I can't tell because when your brain is hard wired a certain way you can't see it for yourself because you think some complicated things others don't get are just as natural as rain. It's really hard to tell what you're a genius in unless you go through rigorous testing to find out what areas you're brilliant in. I wager for most people that live a standard life coexisting around a genius must be difficult because they just can't understand. But seriously I don't know if I could be considered a genius. I do have a high I.Q. and I graduated in the top 50 of my class. But I was pretty good in English, Social Studies and Art, anything that stressed using your imagination. That's where most of my high grade point averages came from.

I'm not a genius or anything, but no you're not.

How do you know that personally? That's a rather rude and insulting comment to make to a total stranger. Geniuses aren't always just people that reside in the Maths and Sciences. Genius lies in many different areas too.

But anyways, I was going to post something a little more congenial and heart warming that I was thinking about while puttering around the downstairs looking for pain killers. I was thinking that when my dad was alive having him pick me up and drive me around town was my special way of spending some quality time with him and getting me out of my apartment. I've kind of been searching for someone that can give me that same, affectionate pleasure. Hence another reason why I don't prefer driving.
 
Greens is just a rude mfer, Zilla. It's part of his charm, if charm you want to call it. :o

In all seriousness that kind of "charm" can get you into trouble though if someone of a certain personality doesn't take too kindly to it.
 
We were talking about driving, where is the talk about driving?
I want to drive WereBender.
 
I need a car so I can do this damned wrestling school. But I don't trust Craigslist. But I'm getting desperate. :(
 
I posted this earlier:

That's about driving people somewhere.

In this day and age that person on Craigslist posting the ad is probably a deranged ax murderer.
