Hahahaha. Classic.

It reminds me of the time I was headed to my cousin's graduation party, where I would see a lot of family who I'm not particularly fond of. I set the cruise for 35 in a 55 on a curvy two-lane road with few passing zones. I must have caused traffic to back up for a mile. *shrug*

I suppose this is rather irritating of me, but I didn't break any laws, I saved fuel, and I saved myself from spending too much time with irritating people. I consider this a win.
