i am drinking until Wednesday morning (not continually), pref in front of a roaring fire even if i have to commit arson.

also Forbidden Planet at BAM next Tues at 7:15

I have no money and my bf is kidnapping me starting tonight for the whole weekend. Not sure any fire will be involved but if anyone hears about an outdoor bonfire lmk

i am going, but i fully expect you to stand up and deliver every single line involving dr morbius, out loud, in perfect timing with the film!

This made me think of you, NYC ilx:

driving test tomorrow, pray for me

you get bonus points if you manage to say "this is so easy I can do it with my eyes closed" during the test, and double bonus points if you say it while parallel parking in heavy traffic

just tell the guy u are getting yr license so you can avoid spending so much money taking cabs home from bars and he will understand and be sympathetic

lol

make up a branch of driving theory, like the Frankfurt School, and pompously reference it whenever you mess up on the test. if you end up failing the test, tell them that the Frankfurt School owns the driving school and you can fire the instructor if you wanted to

turn into the skid or out?

tell him youre looking forward to "tokyo drifting new york style"

honk your horn lightly and constantly and pick up people along the route

anytime your car comes completely to a standstill, let the instructor know that you're "letting it buffer"

sing new york new york super loud the whole time with hilarious new lyrics about driving

en-ra-HAH

PRo tip is to go to a DMV in the suburbs to take your test, they literally just ask to you to turn on the engine and then turn it off

its v easy just follow the green arrow and come to a complete stop w/ some part of the car within the glowing zone, u got this

yeah if i fail in red hook i will go to nyack

I just took my road test and don't listen to people when they say its a piece of cake. the instructor is going to stare and write down everything you do just relax and imagine the instructor as a hot guy you want to impress or think of it like this if you get it right you will win a million dollars good luck

did u pass m8

did it result in a series of comical misadventures punctuated by a life lesson?

did u drive on the wrong side of the street

he drove on the right side of the st but all the other maniacs didnt

In America you literally drive on the right side of the street. Hope that helps

so right, it's wrong

caek! how did it go?

fuck, i'm an idiot. i didn't see that the thread had been revived so i searched for it and asked the question before looking at the responses above.

he still didnt answer i guess they sent him back across the pond

i did pass

he had some very nice things to say about my driving

e.g. "leaving curb, uses mirror only fails to check blind spot'

'excessive space for parking, too far from curb'

great job caek!

'when changing lanes fails to observe'

wow how did u pass frankly

i got 20 points but you need more than 30 to achieve the elite honour of failing the NYS road test

i am in the top 1% of drivers in nyc and he was charmed by my accent

i am sure you can achieve 30 pts next time i believe in you

did u try to buy drugs from him thats a no no

my instructor said "oh shit, you get a pass out of this guy you can drive for the queen of england" when he saw the examiner coming

i did get confused when he asked me to do a k-turn, wtf is a k-turn

i though it was a drug thing maybe?

also seriously i did get in a muddle doing the k-turn and came out of it driving on the left ha

its when u yank on the emergency break and jump over a cop car

red hook is very nice to drive around, very chill

yeah not a lot of traffic down there, no where to go
