Coventry Transit

When two men interlock buttholes, rim to rim, and send a shit log from one man to the other. Known widely as the most efficient way to pass turds between two dudes.

I was about to go drop a deuce, but why don't we just get down to business and take a ride on the Coventry Transit!!

manual transmission

The way that driving has always been done. In order to drive in manual, you control a clutch and a gearshift in addition to gas and brakes. Manual transmissions give you much more information about your car such as its feel, its power, its engine to gear ratios, etc.

Newcomers to manual transmissions often stall out and get frustrated by the addition of extra controls. But if you practice at it a lot, it becomes delightfully challenging, you will feel out of place in an automatic by comparison, and the feeling you get when you drive circles (or donuts) around your friends is totally worth it.

I've been driving in manual transmission for so long, automatic just didn't feel the same. My hand kept reaching for a stick that wasn't there, and I almost hit the emergency brake thinking it was the clutch. I hope automakers keep offering stick-shift models!

Aqueous Transmission

Incubus track that sends fans floating freely into a land of rivers, kung fu and unicorns by the use of a pipa. The band borrowed the pipa from Steve Vai to create the atmospheric song.

Lyrics: I'm floating down a river
Oars freed from their holes long ago
Lying face up on the floor of my vessel
I marvel at the stars
And feel my heart overflow
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river
Two weeks without my lover
I'm in this boat alone
Floating down a river named emotion
Will I make it back to shore
Or drift into the unknown
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river
I'm building an antenna
Transmissions will be sent when I am through
Maybe we'll meet again further down the river
And share what we both discovered...
Then revel in the view
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river
Further down the river

transmetropolitan

A comic book written by Warren Ellis and pencilled by Darick Robertson. It focuses on the misadeventures of outlaw journalist Spider Jerusalem. He comes out of retirement in order to finish a book deal he signed several years earlier. Unable to write in seclusion while at his home in the mountains, Spider returns to the largest city in America in order to write and scrounge up some money. Unfortunately, his journalist techniques upset pretty much everybody, and he angers the newly elected President - known as The Smiler. The comic was critically acclaimed and also acted as a dark satire of current events. It also coined some great phrases such as "I don't give two tugs of a dead dog's cock."

My parents gave me money to spend on textbooks, but instead I went out and bough a bunch of issues of Transmetropolitan.
