That's not the problem - the problem is people that think 65 or 70 is the SLOWEST allowed speed, with 10 or 15 above that being the ACTUAL speed you should go.
I keep the needle on the posted limit on the highway - 65 or 70, whatever's posted - and I get passed by people doing 80+.
I like to drive in the left lane (which many people consider the "passing lane") because the ruts are not as deep and don't drag my car all over the road like in the right-hand lane (the slow-poke lane). Plus, it's easier to pass the herd who are driving 5 miles below the limit if I just stay on the left.
I look up, and there's someone on my butt! If I'm doing the posted limit, why am I being passed? The "passing lane" on a 2-lane highway is only to pass those going LESS THAN the posted speed. If you're passing someone who is moving AT the posted speed, you're doing something wrong.
Seriously, you sit on the speed limit in the left lane? I bet you're practically imune to getting honked and cursed at by now
Yes, I ride the smooth lane that has less bumps with the Cruise Control set at the posted limit. I'm sure I get cursed at. I don't care. Haven't heard any horns.
I'm waiting for one of the idiots to follow me to my destination and say something about it
I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

So it was you!
I'm okay with slower cars in the left lane as long they are actively passing someone. If not, move over and let the crazies pass!

I think there is also a sign posted the says "Slower Traffic Keep Right"
In my way of thinking if you are going slower than traffic in the lane your in move to the right and yes that even means if you are doing the speed limit.
+ I hate the way you drive
+ I hate the faces you make when you feed children (who can't feed themselves)
+ I hate the lisp you never bothered to fix that we ALL notice
+ I hate the way you try to dress like your teenage daughter
+ I hate that you never wear an undershirt
+ I hate your dog barking
+ I hate your use of any foreign language in public in the USA
Reminder: If you are in the right lane you are declaring to all that you are the fastest vehicle on the road. It's a responsibility. I *will* ram you after a reasonable demonstration that you are violating.
"12. People that think dogs have some Constitutional Right to run free..."
On a related note: people who think their cats have "some Constitutional Right" to anyone and everyone else's property - yard, cars, garbage, etc.
#18. I hate you people who feel the need to talk twice as loud as normal on your cell phone. Especially while you're in line at Starbucks, the bank, etc.
And if you have a business suit on, or anything that leads me to believe you'd like to sell me insurance or a used car, then I hate you twice as much as the teenage girl on her phone in front of you. I want to kill you by shoving your cell phone in your skull, but you'd probably just keep yapping.
I hate people that can't use a fucking question mark properly in a god damn email. "What the fuck is this?????" Multiple question marks at the end of sentence doesn't make your question that much more fucking important. Do you want multiple answers? Jesus H. Christ, learn to use punctuation at least somewhat properly!
I also hate the jack ass that does this? "Should this be happening?!?!?!" Is that a fucking question or a god damn statement. People that use punctuation like that need to get fucking clue.
-People who forward ridiculous email hoaxes/urban legends (or, hey, how about the assholes who START them?) My cousin (the drummer) just forwarded me the one about painted-up cats
Photographs purport to show cats adorned with $15,000 paint jobs.
(Warning: popups)
-At work, the mystery people who take their food out of the community microwave before the time is up, leaving those few seconds on the clock. Hey, the reset button is right there, lazy fuggers!
-Not so much people who drive like idiots on the road, but the ones who blame *you* somehow for their lousy skills/decisions - Damn I hate that.
Being a grouchy old fart, I hate everything. But what makes my heat boil are people that park their shopping carts in the middle of an isle or on the opposite side while they have their big fat asses end up blocking the whole isle.
