Left lane should be for passing. If you aren't passing and someone is behind you, move over.

Learn the law for non limited access multi lane highways. I have no requirement to move over on a multi lane highway that isn't limited access. If I have a need to be in the left lane (left turn, going straight in a lane where the other one veers off, etc), I'm going there.

You damn people don't know the law from a hole in the ground (I see it every day).

You HATE being tailgated. People HATE when you don't move over to let them go.

Again, in the situation I'm talking about, who is breaking the law? I've posted that I move over when on required roads (and I'll generally go faster to get out of your way unless you rip up on my ass and try to push me out of the way...if that's the case, go fuck yourself. If I'm in the right lane and need to pass and see you ripping up behind me, I'll generally stay in the right lane and let you run past me even if I have to slow down to do so. Keep a nice distance between you and me and I'll get out of your way unless I'm on a highway where I'm going to need to be in the left lane).

Ugh, I hate it when I'm in some damned city that has left exits from the highway (which doesn't sound like what you're talking about, but the point stands).

No, I'm talking about local multi lane highways (generally 4 lanes - 2 each way) that have stop lights, left turn lanes, lanes that split one way then another). Limited access highways do occasionally split left (I64 and I75 here in Lexington do that and you have no choice but to be left to do the split....people run up your ass and try to push you out of the way when you HAVE to go left....fuck em).

Apparently I have a pet peeve when kids are better at something that I would never even have a chance at. Case in point:

I've never even heard of free skating before & here's 10yo rolling Mozart making it look like, well, child's play :(

On my lunch break, at my desk, have my headphones on (not earbuds, big over-the-ear headphones)... and people walk up to my desk and start talking to me. About work shit.

If you can't see my headphones and my god damn sandwich in front of me and put 2 and 2 together... you're too stupid to talk to.

People who buy bagged milk. What's your deal? Too good for a cardboard container? Okay, asshole, go ahead and be that way then!
