    Got a lift to work today, front seat passenger.

    What the hell are you supposed to do with your arms/hands?

    Seriously, it's so confusing and mine were just flailing about wildly

    Fold them. Do you have restless arm syndrome or something?

    You mean you don't have any friends to text, eat, scratch, pick you nose, rubberneck like everyone does when they are driving

    You fiddle with all the buttons on the dashboard looking for the ejector seat of course and mess up all the heat vents while your at it and change all the radios presets and just for the fun of it grab the steering wheel at intervals totally freak out the driver :D

    Left arm holding the door grab handle, right arm flapping around.

    A more serious question: My current car has a nice comfy arm rest for the driver, if I'm driving any other car my left arm just feels like a nuisance if the car has no arm rest.

    Fúckin arms.

    Continuously point out cyclists, pedestrians and other potential hazards just in case the driver hasn't noticed them.

    My passengers usually grab hold of the 'Jesus Handle' and scream

    Open the window and rest your arm on it and pick up a passenger tan/sunburn...the other hand should be kept free for giving other cars the finger.

    OP, you're a gamer. Do you have one of those plastic steering wheels for use with games consoles? Bring it along with you! The driver will be impressed by your efforts towards empathy.

    OR

    Knock him out, drive the car yourself.

    50 points for a cyclist, 20 for a pedsestrian. If theres an obstacle in between the car and the pedestrian, 75 points if you get the pedestrian but not the obstacle!
    It's the front seat passengers job to keep score.

    Quotes from my last two passengers

    'I feel sick'
    'Jesus Christ you are a lunatic'




    These were passenger runs on the racetrack!

    change the driver's chosen radio channel and see what happens, or put in your own cd - broken fingers if i'm driving:D

    you'll keep your hands in your pockets then
