Dude, I know how to check the friggin oil in my car. I just normally have it changed regularly so I never worry about it but at this point it hasn't been changed in 7 months so I knew I should check it. FYI: it was a quart low.
I can also (gasp!) check the transmission fluid, add my own window cleaner, check my tire pressure and it's been years since I've asked anyone for "jumpin' cables" (Just kidding. That was my sister)!
