Sounds like you are trying to justify jerky shifting, its not him its you. Driving a manual can be smoother than an automatic without any additional wear.
You missed the "to mess with me" part. We've lived together on and off for six years, it's just what he does. We also have a made up language, so really take his actions with a deer hunting sized salt-lick. My driving isn't jerky, it's just not automatic smooth. To be fair I typically drive more aggressively with him in the car (call it informed consent), but under normal driving I don't see the bobbing with anyone else.
