A particular **** me right off thing! The other thing that ****es me right
off is when you're on the interstate and traveling in the left lane. In the
right lane is a truck that you are overtaking at a pretty good rate. Behind
him is a car that is going somewhere between your speed and the speed of the
truck. As you are just getting to the truck, the car pulls in front of you
to pass the truck at his current rate of speed - because he simply can't
kick off his cruise control until you pass. Never fails - it happens just
as you are getting right up on the two of them. So now you're right on his
bumper and he's continuing at his previous speed.
