What's funny is, I'm a good driver (my dad's let me drive the car in empty lots and stuff a few times), yet I can't pass the written test.

What's that saying about the test?
I know people that had IQs very close to boarder lining mentally retarded that have passed that test easily.
And no, that wasn't made up on the spot just to make fun of you.
That really is a fact.

I don't understand how you can fail that test, much less five times.
I'd be so embarrassed of myself.

Oh wow, you can drive a car around an empty parking lot?!
This clearly denotes your above-average driving abilities.
Clearly...

I suppose your English tests are the polar opposite?

Yeah, I was embarrassed at first, but my easy going personality overrides it. What's weird is I scored 100% on the practice test on my first try, but when it comes time for the real one I don't pass. I dunno, but I was pretty pissed, which, doesn't happen very often.

As for the easyest (easiest), I would have corrected that if I had noticed. However I didn't notice it, so I couldn't correct it. Thanks for pointing it out, though.

where do you guys live? in California, you only need to take the written test to get your permit. but to get your license you need to pass a behind the wheel test.

Here, we have to apply for a provisional license (minimum age of 17) which allows you to drive a car on the road with someone holding a full UK driving license for more then two years and above the age of 25. You then can take the theory test, which involves 35 multiple choice questions, of which you must score 30 to pass, as well as a hazard perception section which involves watching video clips and clicking when you see a hazard or potential hazard.

So the theory consists of those two parts, which you must pass both together e.g. In my first attempt, I passed the multiple choice part 35/35 but missed the hazard perception part by one mark, so I had to take both parts again, which was extremely annoying, especially as they don't say what they define as a 'potential hazard'

Once you've passed the theory, then you can take the practical (behind the wheel) test. The average attempts at that test to pass in males is about 5 now, so basically most people fail three or four times. Makes it harder for idiots to pass, or speed freaks. I passed first time, a few weeks ago. I love driving.

At this point, you're probably wondering what exactly I'm ranting about... I'm ranting about how long and boring it was typing this speech, which none of you care about.

I care =D

Here in Mass you can get your permit at 16 and license at 16 1/2.
Written test was one of the easiest things I've ever taken. Questions like "When is it ok to drink alcohol and operate a vehicle?" and "When can you throw a lit cigarette out the window?".

I absolutely fucking hate milk. I was taking a glass into my room, and I tripped, and it went all over EVERYTHING. It is SO sticky and is an absolute bitch to get off of things. I finished cleaning up circa 5 minutes ago.

I LOATHE YOU MILK

So what is the point of this white liquid of sticky consistency other than to wreak havoc on furniture?

I despise milk as well. Every time I swallow it, I feel as if I'm going to regurgitate it, and every ounce of fluid left in my body. It's so nasty, and it makes my throat feel weird. And I feel absolutely disgusted when I see milk mustaches. I feel more disgusted with milk than the pictures of dead people my friend showed me today (which, were pretty disgusting. Pictures of people getting hit by trains, people after getting shot, etc.). And, it stinks. Even when it's fresh and not spilled all over the furniture and carpet. I feel it's the most toxic liquid known to man. As for it making bones stronger, true or not, I don't need it. The only bone I've broken in my body is my finger, and that's probably the most vulnerable bone in the body.

I hate when I don't get a reply from a PM when I know the person I sent it to has been on since I've sent it.

You know who you are, person... -_-

And guys, drink Chocolate Milk. It's much better than that crappy "normal" milk.

Oh, I just noticed I spilled it on my dress pants I am wearing, and it dried because I didn't notice it at first, and it looks extremely like if I were to skeet on my pants and try to get it off. Now what the fuck am I supposed to tell my mom?

The best is when you have a big steak dinner and milk. NOTHING can beat that.
