My dads a truck driving instructor at a big college here in the city. All day he teaches people how to drive a 13 speed truck. Most clients the college gets are immigrants, mainly from india, the middle east, asia, and africa. Most of these people have never driven a car, some have ridden elephants (literally, they even made comparisons between elephants and trucks and how they both sit up high). Anyways he was telling me and a couple of friends what he does with people that can't really shift gears.
In order to shift gears, you need to press the clutch with your left leg and move the shifter with your right hand. This action requires both sides of the brain to work together and synchronize the movements. When he has a student that does not shift well, he tells them that their brain functions arent working properly and that some people are born with a genetic disorder where they lack a "bridging system". His students listen intently on what he is talking about obviously concerned that they themselves might have this genetic abnormality. After a while he tells them that there is a clinic in the city that installs "bridges" in your head connecting the two sides. He tells them it's a simple procedure and there is a bronze, silver, and gold bridge available, gold obviously being the best quality giving you the best connection. After usually some deep thought on the students side, they go and ask my dad if the clinic has a phone number and address, LOL.
Tell me thats not fuckin hilarious?
Btw for all you sensitive types this thread is in no way racist, we are immigrants ourselves, this is just simple reality.
