In the car
Does anyone else find that a long car trip can me made much more endurable with a little extra work on the personal gear shifter? The longer the trip, the longer the shifting. Just look out for trucks. This practice has made covering large distances quite enjoyable.

You're not the only one...
...not because I do it myself, but I drive an HGV. It's remarkable just how far you can see into a car, and how long you can go without food if you happen to catch sight of a bored rep in a Mondeo.

hmm
Long car trips do have an erotic effect on me.
Maybe its the vibrations?
But Ive kept my lips tightly pursed *sic* and my co travellers have been none the wiser.
Letting go of those inhibitions on the motorway would surely be a disaster in the making

Vibrations
The vibrations are probably what makes me hard every fucking time I'm on the bus. I don't find buses erotic however.

This phenomenon is known as 'travel fat'
Passenger A: "Isn't this your stop? Aren't you getting off?"
Passenger B: "Well I would, but I appear to have acquired some travel fat."

etc.

Also known as
Diesel Dick and Convoy Cock.

I think the number of names for it gives an indication of how common it is

Yep
But he was right... sic = mistake/pun/etc fully intended or copied as-is

I'm totally happy being THAT guy *sits on throne of smug*

I think,
only the second half of that is correct. It's used to denote that something has been 'copied as is' from the original, but not of something you have said yourself.

Still, what the fuck do I know. I was happy jamming two unconnected Latin words together willy nilly in my most recent post.

Hooray!
I have claimed my status as THAT guy back...

Now if you don't mind I am going to sit and quietly hate myself until the new QOTW appears.

Women and their vibrations!
I had a friend thhat use to love my motorcycle for that reason. Problem was, by the time you got anywhhere she had no further interest.

Men have to at least scratch their jeans, although I've found for long trips that Mr. Happy should take his rightful place out in the open. Just be careful driving by schools and churches.
