Thursday morning at 8 am German time (i.e. 2 am EST), I am going to take (rather: retake) my driver's license test. Please all wish me luck!

I had a last driving lesson today and it went really well. Wish me luck anyway.

To help you relax for the test, wanna play some Carmageddon?

Good luck! Maybe the pylons be far apart and the parking space be ample.

ya know what..
FUCK YOU NON
Posted by miNus on Aug. 21 2001,02:13
Ok, now I feel bad for telling non to shut up and defending you, jay, because you are a moron. And you really know how to charm the ladies I see too.

Anyway, good luck Liney, I failed my first one too. Twas at a red light, I was instructed to turn right. I stopped for all but .00001 miles/hour (that's 0.00001609344 km/hour ). She said it was an AUTOMATIC FAIL! Argh. So I waited two weeks and aced the test. Funny thing is, I got a perfect score on parallel parking even though I had never done it before and now suck at it.

Good luck. Call me if you need help: 1-401-743-4299
That's my cell phone, don't worry about waking me up, I'll probably still be up at 2 am

watch the road liney...[insert lecture about driving the autobuhn when i was your age]

i will not wish you luck, that would mean you're incompetent (well you are a woman driver ), i do however feel you are up to the challenge. just be cool, don't worry about it. it's not a big deal (the test anyway) don't get your pantys in a wad.

i guess what i'm trying to say is "Hey Charlie, clam down Charlie". its not that hard just relax.

I failed my road test. . .

Twice.

Why? Because at the DMZ in Hawaii (and maybe everywhere else) there is a certain class of mid-thirty-year-old slightly overweight women that hate teenage males. They seem to think it's their lot in life to keep us off the roads. So, the first time I failed, I was told it was because I sped up to 20mph from 15mph because I saw a 25mph sign (Apparently I'm supposed to wait until I actually PASS the sign to speed up...right, okay, sure, like anyone really does that) and the second time, the examiner told me to pull out into the middle of the intersection and wait to make my left turn....WHEN MY LANE WAS "LEFT TURN ON ARROW ONLY" AND RED TO BOOT. So I went to the other side of the island to take my test, got a cool-as-hell hippie dude examiner who just chatted while we were driving around, then passed me.

Oh yeah, good luck, LiNeY.

That second time, did you fail because you did it or because you didn't?

I passed my written test and the driving test the first time, but only by 1 point each.

Good luck, have fun, keep cool.

Don't do anything stupid after you get your license like have some one stand up in a sunroof. It's expensive.

My original statement was confusing. I failed, and when I asked why, I was told that I should've pulled out.

I like this one:

edit: btw I failed my written test once but passed the driving test on the first try, barely. I accidentally went past the turn I was supposed to go down, but the instructer let me go around. btw2 our driving tests are on tiny little courses the size of a small parking lot

Hmm... At work today I hear my phone ring (it's a Nokia set on Fuga) and I didn't get a chance to answer it. Just wondering if any of you guys live in Florida with the number 123-456-7890
I'm gonna call you back tomorrow

[ Note from RenegadeSnark: We'll send Santa Clause to beat the shit out of you if you post someone's phone number without authorization. ]


Posted by SLATE on Aug. 22 2001,00:53
this phone number posting is getting out of control. Just stop, esp. posting peoples numbers without their consent. minus, i personally ask that you edit that post ASAP. Or snark or cr0.... do everyone the favor.. remove the #'s.....
Posted by cr0bar on Aug. 22 2001,01:05
Let me guess, that's your number, SLATE.
Posted by miNus on Aug. 22 2001,01:57
Yeah, ok, my bad.
I don't get why people are saying it's wrong for me to post my own number though... it is MY number.
Well, I guess I'll find out who that was tomorrow

Nope, I live in NJ. I just thought that it was not cool to do. Thats just dick. But posting your own, hey, take your chances! Its up to you what you do with your own number.


Posted by justcozz on Aug. 22 2001,02:45
Personally I don't post personal things things up in public (PH#, Email). If you talk to me that's diffrent.

Back to the topic at hand...
How did you do?


Posted by Rhydant on Aug. 22 2001,03:52
do you guys not get the joke?
123-456-7890

Hrm.. think before you speak Rhy, it did had a real phone number, Snark edited it. Wow.

WELL!?

did you pass or not?

If not, come to the states for a bit. ill teach you to drive.

Wolfguard rules of driving
Rule #1, the gas pedal has 2 states. On the floor and when your foots on the brake.
Rule #2, Never use the brake.
Rule #3, Drive Offensively for the best defence is a good offense.
Rule #4, Push bars on SUV's should only be made out of Cromolly steel and shoud be mounted directly to the frame. These should also be sharpened to provide for maximum dammage.
Rule #5, Push bars on SUV's are named push bars for a reason. They really could not call them "Outta the way grandma" bars.

Get the point


Posted by miNus on Aug. 22 2001,12:13
I object to rule #4. They should be flat or rounded as much as possible to distribute the entire force of the impact throughout their vehicle. Plus if they're sharp, you may just slice through and hit them anyway
No scratches on the SUV!

I think he DID... err WILL mean mechanically, CatKnight.

The best rule I have found is:

Everyone is an idiot. Expect them to not do what is obvious, rather the complete opposit.

Seems like...


  1. She passed the test, loves driving and forgot about the computer.
  2. Didn't pass the test and is grounded from everything.
  3. Reading this while laughing mechanically to herself. (Muwa ha ha...)

I don't think you meant 'mechanically'
Posted by Frosty on Aug. 22 2001,16:43
How did miNus' reply get up there? Wtf.
Posted by Observer on Aug. 22 2001,18:45
He double-posted, then edited to be a reply to CK's post, even though miNus's post was before CK's.

1. for jay. she's in Germany. it's a little different over there.
2. when i did my phone number, the first 3 numbers came out to 275 = 'ask'... welcome to irony country.
3. my driving test was pretty easy, except i lost points because i started moving backward before i was totally turned around, even though i had just come from where i was about to back over... i would have noticed something the first time. The other thing i did wrong was it took too long to parallel park. I was driving a 95 pathfinder, with a nasty ass turning radius that year.

After the test was over, I passed, yet decided to argue with my driving testor about the proper use of downshifting when coming to a stoplight. I contended that it was better to wear out brake pads, while she told me it was illegal to be out of gear. This went on for a while until my mom wisely told me to shut up and get out of the vehicle.
