@mawr I mean, I could use a term that's sometimes derogatory towards trans people but also has a usage as a shorthand for car owners, but... I won't. :-P
@emanate@mawr Eh-heh. During my notorious road trip moving to Seattle in '99, the mechanic in Butte poked around at the Albatross ('87 babyshit brown Buick Century) for thirty-seconds and said, and I quote, "That tranny's not long for this world." I just smirked.
Well, it's almost 20 years later and I'm still here, motherfucker. (And the poor misnamed Albatross defied the wisdom of Butte's greatest mechanics, and lasted the full year and a half until I moved back to Boston.)
