A type of automobile transmission used by
old granny ladies, girlie girls, girlie men, and sissy boys.
You can spot cars with automatic transmissions as you drive on any road. The drivers step on the brakes for random cosmic events. If they see a fuzz, they step on the brakes. If they see a car pull up to a side street, they step on the brakes. If they come to an
intersection, they step on the brakes. If they see a crow, they step on the brakes.
The repeated brake lights warn all stick shift drivers that a totally
incompetent "driver" is operating the car.
