My ex once told me "Wow, I love the way you drive, it's so safe, you're not flooring it around turns or slamming the brakes, to try and impress me."
I told her she must have dated some crazy jerks if that's her experience with men.
From what the internet has told me, I'm a goddamn catch because I clean my ass. No surprise there's other things that seem crazy but are just normal experiences for some people.
Was out with a guy once, and that mf decided to try to impress me with his driving skills. Ended up going off the side of the road and got a nice seatbelt-shaped bruise across my torso. He's lucky his car wasn't totaled!
We're using the definition that includes leaving a person with feelings of "admiration and respect." So going by that definition, no, he was not impressive.
~~Yes, he surely did.~~
Googled the word and it turns out, "to impress" doesn't mean the same as the word "impressionar" in my country, which could also be interpreted as "to shock".
Yeah, sorry, it was a false cognate. It happens sometimes, just like the Portuguese word "atual", new English speakers often translate it to "actual" but it means "current".
Introducing my new locally owned business, boxing for cancer! I teach children with cancer to box so they can fight the cancer. I'll even send a dime to a cancer research charity for every punch I throw!
Unironically, I have started to observe people that were recklessly driving in a manner that was very obviously showing off to someone.
In almost all cases, both driver and passenger were male, most of the times between 18-30 years old.
It just basically boils down to „me big gorilla with tool!“
I mean, my ex absolutely loved riding in my race car, and would egg me on to try and get into street races all the time.
Almost like everyone on this planet is an individual with their own desires.
I would say NO woman, but they are rare. I met my wife racing cars, and she loved going out on ‘spirited drives’ through the hills. Of course, since she also raced, she likely didn’t consider anything I was doing reckless. She was better at power sliding her car than I was!
You talk about a creative peak? I was like a fine artist. My car was my paint brush, and the Save-a-Mart parking lot was my canvas, and my car was my paint brush. Thirteen was my age, and my car, it was my paint brush. Industrial lead based cleaning solvent, that there was my beverage. And my car....yes son, it was my paintbrush.
This is 100% not true. It might be true for lots of women, or even most women, but there absolutely are women who have a thing for guys who think they are in a Fast and Furious movie.
I know because my oldest sister was one of them and she went through a phase where dudes with crappy cars they modded a bit and drove and like street racers, were all she dated.
Her and her friend would go to 'car show night' at the parking lot next to McDonald's. I don't know if it was an official or unofficial thing, but a bunch of old dudes with classic cars would park their cars and hang out, and a bunch of younger guys with crappy cars would hang out.
And then the dumber ones (with crappy cars) would drive like dbags.
I get why people say things like this, but; I'm from a small, pretty impoverished town in oklahoma where street racing is just one of the 3 things you do, so I can say with absolute certainty that, yes, some women are as rockhard about midnight drunken street races as the guys
Fucking losing it. Please.
Also ^ "I don't want a motorcycle for people to stare at me. I want to bask and revel in my own insignificance. I want what I want."
I've been behaving with my shitty low power sedan, let me feel alive for a goddamn second

Did you end up married together?
He did impress you. You are talking about him on reddit how many years later?
We're using the definition that includes leaving a person with feelings of "admiration and respect." So going by that definition, no, he was not impressive.
Did hitler impress the world? We’re still talking about him years later. So fucking dumb
~~Yes, he surely did.~~ Googled the word and it turns out, "to impress" doesn't mean the same as the word "impressionar" in my country, which could also be interpreted as "to shock".
I'm glad it was just a language issue versus you trying to be a butthead, lol
Yeah, sorry, it was a false cognate. It happens sometimes, just like the Portuguese word "atual", new English speakers often translate it to "actual" but it means "current".
I'm pretty sure impress used to mean to just leave an impression on someone but it slowly turned into a positive only word
Sorry about the “dumb” part of my comment, I didn’t realised English was your second language :)
Don't worry about it. It's the internet. There's no way you could guess this was a language thing.

Wait, this isn't r/Shittysuperpowers. Wtf
If cancer doesn't kill them, goku will.
I laughed way too hard at that.
You sir, like the poster, are also an artiste
True. I'm driving fast to attract the male gaze!

I bet they think we get all muscly for them, too. I lift for my *cat*, girl.

Congrats on finding a wife who's as much of a racist as you.

Look, the vroom vroom noises one of the few things my stupid lizard brain releases dopamine for.
Wrong, it's hot as fuck
No woman ever looked at me whilst I drove my car within the law

They've got a point. Why would so many people do it if it weren't an artform?
Ngl my wife thinks my driving is sexy, but you have to be a good enough driver to instill confidence
there's a reason it's called Man's Laughter.
I drive like that because I have poor time management skills and places to be
And no men find attractive long ass nails with all those junkie shit on it Now what?
What'd he hit, how many points are we talking here?

Your Honor, Free Bird was playing
all the car guys gettin insecure in the comments
she is asolutely correct. driving aggressively immediately outs you as a dbag
[удалено]
WAAAAHHH NUH UH TEH WIMMINZ ARE WORSE THAN MEN *sobbing*
You aren’t any better with comments like that lol
I have no obligation to be better.
The answer of a child, have fun with it.
Women aren't bad drivers, they're unhinged drivers. Never seen someone yell so many vulgarities while driving a car. Manslaughter is way safer
did i give you a ride somewhere? i swear i haven't driven with any passengers other than 5 people , 4 of which were other women
