Autos are for gays, but you spell your name "boi." My irony-meter is in the red right about now.

Anyways, my Civic is an auto. Bought it while my wife was pregnant. It is boring as hell and I miss my 5-speed Prelude which I got rid of before I moved. Anyways i'll never buy another automatic. Although it is useful in Honolulu rush hour traffic.

theres nothing wrong with having an auto. a part of the population just doesnt want to have to deal with manual gear changing. everytime i step into a auto car i'm always looking for the clutch before i start it then i realize its an auto.
