So went out driving with my dad.....BIG MISTAKE. He's one of those parents that gets really tense and starts yelling instructions, which makes me freak out. Now for all you kids learning on automatics, thank your lucky stars that you don't have to deal with the clutch in the near future. THE CLUTCH IS THE ENEMY!!!!! Anyway, so I'm working on making the car pull out from neutral ( which involves an intricate system of pulling out the clutch and pushing in the gas at the same time, in apropriate steps) and my dad starts yelling " pull it out pull it out!!!!" first of all, yelling doesn't help, and second, PULL WHAT OUT!? being blunt doesn't help me get the car going. Well in the car he's frustrated me to almost tears,then afterwards he pats me on the back and says good job.
Oh the infuriation! I am driving with my mom from now on!
