I was super excited about installing a short ram intake today, but I only got halfway through and it was too cold and dark to continue
My first attempt at being manly was so disappointing ;-;

I felt the same way trying to install a battery back in January. it was -20C outside, and the battery in the car was dead as a doornail.

Get the fuck back out there and finish what you started like a MAN!

crying about it isn't gonna make you manly.

You gotta bottle them feelings up until you snap and take it out on someone smaller than you.

I got 3/4 of the way done installing mine when I broke a vent tube. Had to wait another week for a replacement.

On what? I did an oil change at 3 degrees Fahrenheit one time. That was awful.

I accomplish most my car work in the middle of the night in an angry fashion. I don't recommend it, good decision to stop.

Don't sweat it, finish it up in the daylight, and don't fall for that whole 'car stuff defines your manliness' BS! If that was the case, I would've sprouted about 30 testicles by now.

I have a hard time finding people smaller than me. Is it okay taking it out on children?

But car stuff is the only manly thing I have left!
And you could have 30 testicles and just not know it.

I gave up just as I loosened one of the terminals and left it like that for the night, because it was just COLD. The car starts a lot easier since the new battery.

That must have been a million times more disappointing than my experience. I'm sorry D:

Oh God, now I feel so bad. It's like a kitten sitting out there in the cold. With a bunch of it's insides taken out.

Nothin' manly about bolt-ons. Working on cars has nothing to do with being manly, either. Your momma pushed you out, and you will most likely never do anything near as hardcore as that.

It is. Imagine you're in surgery, and it runs a little longer than planned, and everyone just goes home because they're tired and want dinner. They leave you sitting there, cut open, and running out of blood and anesthetic.

Someday I'll push a baby out too, so does this mean I'm extra manly?

I would probably just think they're cute and give them hugs instead.

No, that means you're hardcore. Manliness is a silly thing that no one need strive for.
