You are not hypermiling are you? We are going to be late.

Sweetie: "Look at this guy tearing along. Hurry, hurry, hurry! And here we are at the red light together."
Me: "There he goes!" as the light changes and the mighty V-8 bellows.
(thirty seconds of surface street traffic elapse)
Sweetie, as we glide up to the next stop light: "Where did the hurry-up guy go?"
Me: "He's two cars back."
Sweetie: "Ha."
Note: arriving at this moment has been a long, slow process. And even now Sweetie is fully aware she's not great at hypermiling. But she is also fully aware I'm pretty good at it, and also of the futility of going fast.
