Which do you prefer, stick shift or automatic and why?

I definitely prefer a manual transmission because I can shift way faster than any auto ever dreamed of. Plus you change up your driving style any time you want with no issues from the car. The computers on auto s "learn" your driving style and tend to shift/perform to whats in its memory and if you normally try to be speedracer and then one day want to take it easy the shift points are gonna be at higher rpms and hard shifts as well, whereas manual trans' are under your control only.
