[BBS] WTF you guys =|

Is this quarter's defensive driving class full of idiots, or did someone let a T-Rexaur loose in the parking lot?

It's harder than it looks. Shut up.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-12 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I've been driving and piloting since I was sixteen. It is not that hard!
fierybluebird: (Bird I'll smack you)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-12 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... well... it is. It has way too many buttons and doohickeys and flying shouldn't be so hard. Even ship steering wheels have just the helm and then some ropes... and knots and... you know rock currents... just shut up.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Ever seen the helm of a spaceship? If I can do it, you can do it. It's not like you're Charmy Bee.

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
No, and I don't want to. Driving is stupid and for people who can't fly on their own.

[Sulking.]

Flying and piloting have their advantages, even over natural fliers. For a start, an airship can carry a lot more people over a greater distance.

Don't tell me you're jealous just because you can't do it.
fierybluebird: (glare)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah yeah, shut it.

I have nothing to be jealous of. I can do lots of things. Just not steer.... drive. Whatever.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm sure you're good at plenty of things, but driving's just a no-brainer. It's easy. Going by the state of those cars, I'd trust Mighty more than this quarter's driving class!
fierybluebird: (outlook not good)

Go die.
fierybluebird: ($2 pistol but the gun won't shoot)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
I apologize. That was rude.

Please go die.

[Marco deals well with being bad at things, OBVIOUSLY.]

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
Stop wrecking giant hunks of metal, and we might have a deal. It'll take several years to fulfill my end, of course, since I have a lot to do first.

fierybluebird: (hybrid)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'll do what I want.

And get better. Maybe. It's not like I don't have the reflexes.... meh. Driving is dumb. You can't exercise with it anyway. And it's weird. And the screen is annoying.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Stop fussing over nothing. A new skill's a new skill, and at least this one's practical - not like ballroom dancing. Learn it, use it, and if you don't need it then hey - you never know, you might need it in future.

Calling it "dumb" and "annoying" is just an excuse to be sloppy and act like you're "above" a subject.

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Ballroom dancing is plenty useful. You can't sneak into any world government or tenryuubito or marine affairs without it. Besides, do you know how much easier it makes picking up chicks? Like a freaking cakewalk man.

I am above it. If I want to go somewhere, I'll fly. Maybe I can just convince Toby to learn it and let him drive. There. Problem solved.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Tell me you're kidding. No government or military group has any need for ballroom dancing these days - that stuff went out forever ago! Besides, I have no interest in picking up "chicks."

So even when you need to transport about twenty people, you're just gonna make others do it for you? That's nice of you.
fierybluebird: [Marco arching an eyebrow leaning on an arm with blue background] (Is that so?)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
My world probably isn't in the same time frame culturally as yours, eh.
And you should, chicks are fun.

Hey, it's not like I don't pull my own weight with other things.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Don't have time back home, and here there's no guarantee we'll stay long enough for anything more than a "casual" relationship. Plus I'm not exactly human. I'm leaving them alone.

Just 'cause you can do other stuff doesn't mean you should just give up.
fierybluebird: (thinking)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Female chameleons then.

So long as I pass I no longer care. Besides, weren't you the one saying we shouldn't bust them up so badly?

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Not really interested. Besides, they're kind of a rare find.

[]

The two aren't seperate things. Bust them up less, and you're more likely to pass. Keep wrecking the things, and you'll fail.
fierybluebird: (plain and sane)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Understood.

I'm not trying to wreck them.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently you're not trying to steer, either.
fierybluebird: [Marco arching an eyebrow leaning on an arm with blue background] (Shanks you're making me twitchy)

[personal profile] fierybluebird 2011-01-13 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Shut up. I was trying. Just maybe not succeeding too well.

[identity profile] monkingaround.livejournal.com 2011-01-12 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... My bad.

Oh man, there really is more than one of you. Not a fan of sounding like Vector, but I really hope Garden's got good insurance.

sorry for the late reply! rl attacked.

[identity profile] monkingaround.livejournal.com 2011-01-15 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I never thought about that! I'm sorry, Garden!
werepanther: (tell me you're kidding)

[personal profile] werepanther 2011-01-13 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
...

Thanks for the heads-up. I know where I'm not going to be this Quarter.

Good call. I mean sure, I could take being hit by a car, but that doesn't mean I want to.
werepanther: ([tom] is that so?)

[personal profile] werepanther 2011-01-13 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, not really. I usually let supervillains take those hits.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-13 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Of course! What better target? ...though in that case, it's usually Mighty hurling the cars, rather than that the cars are actually being driven.
werepanther: ([tom] heh)

[personal profile] werepanther 2011-01-13 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Super-strength always did come in handy. In my case, I just threw my guy into oncoming traffic. Literally, he never did figure out what hit him.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-14 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I bet the drivers didn't know what hit them, either. That was stupid of you. You could have caused a real accident.

Super-strength is handy, but it'd be better if certain people weren't so useless with it. Mostly meaning Mighty.
werepanther: ([wildcat] really now?)

[personal profile] werepanther 2011-01-14 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
It was either cause an accident or allow an immortal guy to kill my dad. Not a very tough choice, man.

Yeah, that'll probably do you in later.
bunnypassingby: (it's really high)

[personal profile] bunnypassingby 2011-01-13 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
i can't blame them. driving looks hard.

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-14 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
It really isn't hard at all. Just takes a bit of concentration and practice.
bunnypassingby: (it's really high)

[personal profile] bunnypassingby 2011-01-14 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
but there's so much more going on in cars here...
eggplantallergy: (Gakupo: uh oh...)

[personal profile] eggplantallergy 2011-01-13 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm trying my best! I swear! Things are easier the second time around, right?

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-14 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
...you had to repeat the class?!

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-14 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
You either did or you didn't! There's no "just a little!"
eggplantallergy: (Gakupo: *stares*)

[personal profile] eggplantallergy 2011-01-14 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Then I did. But I'm getting better, I think.
rebellingheart: ([Serious] Well? I'm waiting.)

[personal profile] rebellingheart 2011-01-13 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not half as easy as people make it look, but I'm having an easier time than some of my classmates.

They're all trying really hard at least, right? Isn't that what matters?

[identity profile] turnip-rage.livejournal.com 2011-01-14 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
You'll make it look easy too, once you've practiced. And plenty of other people have managed to learn without wrecking the cars.
rebellingheart: ([Serious] Well? I'm waiting.)

[personal profile] rebellingheart 2011-01-15 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
I'm counting on it actually.

I'm just hoping that learning to drive is easier than learning how to fight with a gunblade. I actually want time to have fun and do something that isn't practice and training for once.
