I can has learner's permit!

[trinityofone]

Woo! I passed my permit test! I am now legally authorized to terrify ebrooklynw and akukorax as they try to help me learn how to drive in the state of California! I win!

...This annoucement would be much more awesome and much less pathetic if I were actually 15 1/2 and making it. *looks sheepish*

But yeah: Trin—coming soon to a road near you! Be afraid. Be very afraid!

You're quaking with fear all the way in Ireland, eh?

[siria]

I would not say 'fear', per se... though who am I kidding, I wouldn't even know how to start a car.

I think you turn the...key thingy, yeah?

This is GOOD though! It means next time you come out here *bats eyelashes at you* I can drive you places! No more L.A. Metro! Plus—road trips of awesome! We could go along the old Route 66 to meet Cate in Chicago! =)

HI HI YES ROUTE 66 TO CATE IS A GOOD IDEA!

Also, I know a person (i.e. me) who gives Farm in Iowa tours . . .

(No, seriously, this idea is v. tempting.)

Do you not TRUST ME with the OPERATION of a MOTOR VEHICLE? ;-)

Here's a question. Rodney:

1) Perfectly competent driver.
2) HATES driving & uses car service.
3) Doesn't really care about driving one way or the other.
4) Cannot drive in a straight line.

I vote one, with a dash of three. He's really kind of indifferent to cars, I think, beyond them getting him from A to B, and scorns the Great American Obsession with cars. He drives some really tiny Japanese import which he selected solely for price and how many miles it gets to the gallon, a fact which John seems to regard as a direct affront to his masculinity.

I think that probably the most correct, if not the most hilarious, option. I think cars is another topic John and Rodney should totally flirt argue about on the show.

...

Are there any Canadian cars?

[siria]

My extensive knowledge of the Canadian automobile industry¹ reveals that mostly it's Canadian branches of American or Asian firms up there, but I did find mention of a Canadian-made car which seemed appropriately named.

¹ I looked stuff up on Wikipedia.
