If you have full lights on the dash that aren't dimming at all and your car just clicks when you try to start it, you have a seized starter which you can hit with a hammer and sometimes it will unseize itself and will be good for a whileish.

When somebody zooms past me to wait at a red light, I like to roll up in front of the car super casually and put my arms on the bar and just casually look around as if I'm not trying to be anywhere fast and then drag ass getting started again and if I can take the lane.
