I used to live in an apartment building across the alley from a Chinese restaurant. If I called my order in I'd simply say hi and the woman would reply "I know who this is. The usual?"

I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.

Went into the dim sum carryout place the other morning. Old lady wants 3 separate orders all different in 3 different clamshells with 3 different sodas in each. She starts by ordering 1 baked bao for each order. The server says, what else? The lady says I want 1 baked bao in each order and tries to insist that the server put them in the boxes before she will say what else she wants. The server says she'll remember, what else do you want. This goes on for about 10 minutes before the lady starts to give the rest of her order. Took about 20 minutes--with all the food already there behind the counter and the line growing longer and longer.

Ok, so you're snortling along behind some unit going 5 below the limit in the left lane. The right lane is densely seasoned with trucks and trailers, some waving in the lanes.
And it's ok, because there's no safe passing zone, so lah dee dah, right?
Then the right lane clears beyond sight, so you pull around and cruise up to 5+ over the limit.
Which evidently is some form of deep offense past hubris, some deep seated, brash and intolerable insolence.
So they speed up and hang on your butt for 20 miles, trying to revenge pass. Which is not allowed as a result of the dynamic. And afforded by a decent sled.
And so we go for few miles until they retire to the speed to which they're accustomed,
Which is fine.

Hey, making up fake words when you don't know the lyrics worked for the Kingsmen. (Just wikied them and found out they were from Portland OR. Ahead of their time.
I've seen it a million times. (Which is the cue for my wife to tell me that no, I haven't seen it a MILLION times. Probably only a few hundred.) Or they pull over to let you pass and then ride your ass for a few miles at 10MPH than what they were doing before until they eventually drop down to previous speed.
Adaptive cruise control should be mandatory to drive on a freeway.

Brake checking is for assholes. (I do them way too often.)
At one point the CA driver manual said that the appropriate response to tailgating is to slow down a little to leave extra room in front of you and lightly tap the brakes just to light the brake lights. Don't know if it's still in there.

I do my best to avoid punitive driving. This is the amused thread, right?
I'm not a nun, but I do pity those riddled with retribution.
However, if observation shows that a unit is keeping a consistently slower pace for a significant amount of time and that unit suddenly tries to pass me after I've passed it, I will use my snooty sled and its 350+ horses under the hood just waiting to be tamed to prevent that occurrence.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski

People have studied what differentiates race car drivers and Joe Schmoe, and one of the main factors is that a driver with high level training is looking everywhere, while old Joe is just staring directly in front of his bumper. He just keeps going until something comes into his line of sight.
