I wish I'd have bought an MT for the simple fact I'm tired of explaining why I bought an AT

We also get the opposite here.

"I don't know what camber does, but I know I want 0."

It is simple either don't explain or a simple "that was what I wanted". No reason in the world to explain why you want an auto to anybody, ever.

Not so much a want, more so a compromise for a different situation in my life that drastically changed less than a week after I bought the car haha

Doesn't matter. Even if it was a compromise it was the "want" at that point in time. Nobody's business but yours. I don't explain why I chose the options I did (unless I want to) so why would I feel compelled to explain my tranny choice?

Someguy - "Dude you bought an auto! Where is the third pedal bro? MT FOR LIFE!"
Me - "Well son, my old arm only has a few shifts left, that is why I bought the auto."

LOL!

Meh... Depending on the day I'll normally just tell them that it's my daily drive (and most working people in NJ instantly understand), or I'll have a little fun by turning the question around and asking them why they don't drive a manual (it's a lot of fun doing this actually as they usually have no idea how to answer the question )...
