Cruise control

Blurb My Brain:
Do you know why cruise control was invented? I will tell you why. To piss people off. Namely, the people who use it. I went to Visit a cousin this weekend and because Pickles griped about the 2hr car ride last time, David told me to rent a car. I tell them I wanted cheap. They offered me a compact car. I show up, sign the paperwork, get the keys....and it's a 4Runner. That thing is NOT compact. If it stands 7 feet tall, it's not compact.

Anyway, this thing has cruise control. I don't want to get pulled over so I set it to a nice 65 for the 60mph zone. I see that there is a string of cars ahead of me. They also appear to be going 65. Then suddenly I am gaining on them. So I slow it down to 60. We continue to go 60. Then all of a sudden they zoom ahead. Back to 65 I go. Cruise control does not work when in a string of cars.

Pisses me off. If you're gonna drive 65, stay at 65. Or use cruise. Ugh.
