If like me you have on occasion been kept awake wondering just how competent of a driver an Orangutan could be as compared with some of the crazies that infest the freeway during rush hour, here is the answer to that important question.

after i drove a box truck all over Nengland the last 5 years I came to the conclusion I wasnt dysfunctional in thinking that you should always drive like everyone wants to kill you. I was, in fact, sane. driving a 13 ton missile is more dangerous than a 2 ton missile. but they're all missiles.
AND, I came to another conclusion just now that Orangutans should be trained as human chauffeurs.....maybe not, that would devolutionize Orangutans by gross proximity to human culture.

The tiger wanted something. It must of been bored out it's mind in that tiny cage. It will waste away.

Meanwhile, the Orangutan looks quite happy. Chilled out, one hand on the wheel, driving along the beach and round the estate. He gets time with the family, and 3 square meals a day, or any other shape he wants.

You can see who the favourite is. I can't imagine that tiger wants to shotgun.

Awesome!
But can she put on makeup in the rearview mirror while she’s driving?
That’s the real test.

LOL! most women can't do that & stay in their lane. not fair to orangutans...on the other hand, we're only looking at lipstick & eye liner. probably be okay... i liked how you could see its eyes going side to side when nearing intersections, watching for merging golf carts. i'd go for that ride! 😎

not bragging BUT, on my way driving to work, I ate a full breakfast while doing a full makeup (including mascara and eyeliner) AND styling my hair!

......... I looked great! :D

edit to add: left out the part where I also smoked an entire joint, all done in under 1 hour! ;)

Now that is what I call multi-tasking. Glad to hear that you didn't watch the TV news during that meal while partaking in a connoisseur-grade fattie.

Looks like the original video clip was taken down on youtube for some but not all browsers. Since one good cruise deserves another, here is the same Orang taking a late evening and twilight tool down along the beach for good measure.

good to hear, but....you are ONE woman, and perhaps not representative of the entire "weaker" sex. given your wide skill range, i don't think that is "bragging"...out of curiosity, what constitutes a full breakfast these days? i had a piece of buttered toast & a small glass of chocolate milk...😑

Full breakfast? Back then it woulda been 2 cups of coffee and a bacon/fried egg on toast.

I could do this without getting caught because I took back country roads and just like the orangatang, always kept 1 hand on the wheel.

Amy coulda done it too, I'm sure! ;)
