In all fairness to people today, there just aren't many stick shift cars to practice on even if you wanted to.
This is sad, but true. I didn't have nearly enough practice driving stick before I bought my car, so I'm basically getting more familiar with it as I go. Of course, I picked the worst city to do that in (why is everything a goddamn hill?), but that's a different story.
It's funny, I've had at least a couple of other friends do essentially what I did (buy an old Porsche or BMW M and learn to drive on it).
