Went to get air for my car tires....I was third in line.....the two guys in the cars in front of me put in air in their tires - when they had to put in air on the tires opposite the air pump, these guys draped the hose over their cars and simply walked it from front to back.
I was beside myself - why the hell would you do that? Is it so much effort to simply put the hose on the ground and run it under the front and back of the car and put air in that way?

Both were late model cars - one Acura and one Lexus.

What bothers me is people taking 45 seconds to pass a single car on the interstate. Step on the gas and get the hell out of the way, ya freakin’ douchebag.

That bothers me everywhere lol. If you're gonna pass, pass and move back over. Or the people that drive 10 or 15 mph under the speed limit until they hit a passing zone, then they stand on the gas like they're at the Indy 500

Worst is passing a truck and you get stuck next to it. Drives me nuts. For safety purposes if you are going to pass do it quickly, especially a truck.

Just get your own pump. They are small and work pretty good. Yea they take a little longer but you can put the air in as you please and not have to pay for air.

This one's for you LionJim....

BREAKING: PennDOT has issued a travel advisory after two tractor trailers accidentally entered into an unofficial endurance race on I-81.
The truck in the left lane is traveling 55.000 MPH. The truck in the right lane is traveling 54.999 MPH. Neither driver has any intention of changing that before crossing at least three counties. Experts say the pass began during the last ice age and should wrap up sometime before Pennsylvania finally finishes road construction.
Behind them, a guy from Philly has already run out of swear words, finished an entire hoagie, questioned every decision that led him here, and is now considering whether walking would actually be faster.
A guy from Scranton thought the worst part of his day was driving back to Scranton. Then these two decided to recreate continental drift on the interstate, and suddenly home doesn't seem so far away.
By mile 48, everyone behind them has become a family. They've shared snacks, exchanged insurance information, watched two relationships end, and are expected to celebrate Christmas together if the left truck ever completes the pass.
Pennsylvania remains the only place where a 0.001 MPH speed advantage is treated like a bold strategic decision

Probably the passing zone that ends/starts at the old William penn inn. Traffic through there is terrible anymore, especially on Fridays, I travel it daily unfortunately lol

Or at night riding in the passing lane on your rear panel with their lights on high shining right into your driver side mirror and just staying there.

Yep thats it. Also goes past the area that is a trail head for the Appalachian trail. Always wanted to stop and check it out.
Outside of that one section I loved driving that route to the games on Fall saturdays.
I would take the short cut through Cornpropst Mills and then hook up to Mc Alveys Fort rd. through Pine Grove Mills (such a cute little town, loved it Halloween). Was really nice drive to and from on the noon games but could get a little hairy at 1:00 in the morning after the night games.

I was typing a way-too-in-depth reply to the OP when my damn browser refreshed on its own for some reason and cleared my typing 😡

So I’ll go more brief now:
Answer to 2nd question: Yes
Answer to 1st question: Because the answer to the 2nd question is “Yes”

Little things annoy me so I get that
I'm sure at some point I did exactly what you're describing so this one doesn't bother me. My young adult kids would absolutely have done this lol

My daughter parlayed rifle into ballistics research . She participated in studies such as Triangulation to determine the origin of missle launch sites , and determining the soft tissue damage to soldiers from explosive concussive forces . Maybe Rick II will be a NASCAR engineer? You never know.
