Real citation: "The problems i had with my clutch was different. I had noise when the clutch was loaded between 1st and 2nd especially uphill.

Made-up citation: "I love you, sweet Gwendolyn. When we're together, my heart makes boom-boom-boom-ish noises, and I get a sharp pain in my arm, along with lightheadedness, anxiety, and a feeling of impending doom. Without you, I'd never make it to the hospital. This IV's for you!"
