... you yell profanities at the traffic signal when it doesn't change to your benefit
... the people you used to sniggger at as you flew past them on the uphill because they were going so slow (before you learned about hypermiling) now sniggger at you because ... you ... are ... sooo ... much ... slower ... than ... them ...
... you look up the FE figures and fuel tank capacities of your friend's and family's vehicles to see what fraction of your tank it takes to go as far as they can on a full tank ("Woohoo! It only takes 1/3 of my tank to go the same distance you do on a full tank!")
... you set the dash lighting to it's lowest setting because you think it might improve your FE by 0.0005% (more or less) by reducing the load on the alternator
... you are keenly aware of how much fuel you just wasted by jamming on the brakes ("Dangit! That was 0.00035 gallons wasted!")
