I pump the brakes with the swearing if I’m around kids, complete strangers, or people I know really take offense to it, i’m honestly not trying to be rude on purpose.

But other than that, no. I swear a lot and have no intention to lessen that. It’s an excellent coping mechanism for stress and it doesn’t hurt anybody or, in fact, anything.

Replacing it with things like “what the cluck” would only add to the anger I feel in the moment because I think that’s horribly cringe.

Yeah. People in a manual definately don’t ever do that.

It doesn’t free up time no but it does make driving ever so slightly less involved.

Controls on a drill have a clear practical purpose, and to my knowledge they don’t make them that do that automatically in a reasonable price range. I would totally buy that if they did. ;-)

You’ll never catch me doing something that can be automated away, this includes shifting gears in a car.

But a car is just a tool to me, like a cordless drill, so i’m sure I don’t get it.
