I'm also insecure and vain. And I distrust marriage; that's why I'm 34 and never married. And I hate kids; no offense to those of you who have already reproduced.
I lack confidence in my driving skills, so I attend DE events regularly. I'm certainly self-centered and self-absorbed; I'm one person living in a 3-bedroom house. I don't know any of my neighbor's names, and I tend to be pretty anti-social at times.
I love fine restaurants. I never, ever go to church. And I don't volunteer for anyone unless there's a paycheck involved.

Sweet Jeeeezus! I just found the perfect role model! One exception, I'm confident about driving skills, at least I'm in the 90th percentile, Micheal Schumacher I'm not.
In my years as an auto enthusiast, I've run into precious few who agnonize over any gear change that is less than so perfect that a passenger couldn't tell except for the change in the engine's note. If we are going to generalize about the drivers on the road in SUVs (or other cars), I think that it would be safe to say that they are not students of technical, high performance driving. They're just going somewhere with no thought of the means of getting there. Ever had a woman tailgate you with her cell phone in her face and you start to slow down just to see how long she'll hang? I think my record on the freeway is about 7 miles at 55mph. And I move over one lane and she hammers it until she's right up someone else's ass and sits there with this transfixed gaze for another 5 miles.
