  • I don’t get it either. If you don’t have the skill to do something you can always pay someone. That doesn’t make you the one with the skill though. If they did it for free then you still aren’t the one doing the thing. You’re just an ideas person. That’s not a bad thing but it usually is the easy part of any creative endeavor.

  • I’ve only learned to drive fairly recently so I still remember getting to the point where I’m sort of comfortable with manual shifting. There’s two ways of doing it (that I know of). The simple way: Put it in first gear, then very slowly let the clutch go, don’t touch any other pedal. You’ll find some point where it engages and the car starts creeping forward. A bit further an you’re out of the danger zone and can drive normally. Took me a bunch of tries but I’m reasonably fast with it now without fear of stalling the engine.

    The other one is mostly the same idea, but you start accelerating pretty much right when it’s engaging, without really waiting for creep happening. I’ve actually found that easier on some cars, but it’s also a great way of creating interesting noises.

    Sitzen zwei Kamele im Keller und stricken Benzin. Kommt ein Schraubenzieher, läuft ein mal den Türrahmen hoch und wieder herunter und verschwindet wieder. Fragt das eine Kamel: “Du, hast du dat geseh’n?” Sagt das andere Kamel: “Jau, der is öfter hier.”
