Oh wow. That makes sense, but I always thought the laft lane was for passing, so I hog up the middle lanes a lot. I guess I suck.

RockinChica78: I think the freeway qualifies as a one-way roadway. I think this stat refers to roads when there is a center lane for turning. It may be outdated; all those center lanes are pavement marked now as turn lanes. OR it means when there are two lanes going in one direction and a third lane in the opposite direction. You can't pass the two lanes travelling in the same direction by going into the opposite lane; like how you WOULD pass people on a two lane road. Cause if two lanes of people just don't drive fast enough for you, maybe you're just an asshole.

Ahh, the outside the box thinker. Good points, hadn't thought of it that way.
Still just as confused as ever, though!
I think chica is right. That rule you posted is in regards to road systems that are not freeways. This rule applies when say, you are going up a steep incline, there are 2 lanes for uphill direction, one lane down hill and you see the signs saying "Slower Traffic Keep Right".
My sister and brother in law have owned a driving school for 6 years now. I feel like I am in driver's ed everytime I drive with her. She drives by the laws exactly how they are written. The info about the center lane I stated earlier came from her. So I am only assuming it is true and I would bet it is coming from her.
The 3 (or more) lane system technically is laid out like this, (This is acording to my sis's teachings)
The right lane is for merging traffic coming onto the freeway and for exiting traffic. This is meant to provide less congestion and slow downs.
The center lane(s) is meant for all traffic at an even pace (aka the speed limit)
The left lane is for passing.
But even with these laws in place, one can't follow them acurately. Because think when the lane comes to a split and the signs tell you that the left 2 lanes will take you one way and the other 2 lanes will bring you the other way. In that case, which one is the legally proper lane to be in?
All in all, these rules will never fully be followed as the majority of drivers don't usually know these laws let alone know how to drive.
There are states where you can get ticketed for being in the left lane "Too Long". I believe WI is one of them. I could be wrong.
The phrase "Now more than ever." SHUT UP!
My boss always says "we can speak to that later."
Why am I going to talk TO a problem? I want to talk ABOUT the problem, in hopes I get a solution. Not just talk to it and then walk away. What an annoying phrase.

Maybe he's trying to keep you "in the know".
Tryin to get you to really step up to the plate.....on "this one"
This one drives me fucking batty as well. Very common usage among up-and-comers in this company.
Immitation is the best form of flatery.
When my boss asks "What do you know?"What the hell am I supposed to say to that and look good?I know everything? I know nothing? I know I deserve a bigger paycheck?I know I'll kick your ass if you ask me that question again?I mean, the possibilities are limitless and none of themwould put me in a position to come out ofsuch a silly conversation even remotely victorious.

I believe the correct answer to this is "Just enough to be dangerous" followed by a wink and a smile.

Will do. Not sure about the winking or smiling part though...
You know what really grinds my gears?
When I order something "with cheese" like chili cheese fries or "Italian Beef topped with Cheddar Cheese or Mozzarella," get my food and there is fucking cheese SAUCE on it. Cheese sauce is not cheese. It is cheese SAUCE. I don't want to eat cheese sauce. I hate it, it's disgusting and it is not cheese. If it's cheese sauce, the menu better fucking say cheese sauce and NOT cheese.
I am the thread killer.
I hate "So...whaddya think?" with no context given. Not "whaddya think about ____?" - it's just "whaddya think?"
I hear ya on the cheese, Chica. One that drives me nuts is cheese on a burger that is not melted. I dunno what it is about melted cheese, but I demand it when it's a topping for a hot food item.
Aw, come on, give it up for the cheese sauce. With it's well I'm almost cheese texture. There's no way in hell cheese could ever have that consistency but it sure is juicy. That's what I loved about fuddruckers. And the name almost sounds like fuckers too but that's just the kid in me.
You know what really grinds my gears is the fucked up way my parents decided to spell my name. Speaking of fuddruckers the only person who's EVER spelt my name right the first time without asking is a dude that works there. I was speachless. I was 31 at the time and I told dude "You spelt my name right?" "Yeah,so." "No you don't understand NO ONE has EVER spelt my name right." "Enjoy your burger sir." "Uh, the name is Darek. You know the one you just spelt right you lovely fat ugly man!"

Inconsistency!!!
Not in my pudding, in writing.
I just proofed this document and some abbreviations have periods, some don't. Some of the grades are listed as "second" some are "2nd," some things say "grades 1-2" others say "1-2 grade" others say just "1-2"
Inconsistency drives me friggin nuts.
I burst blood vessels in my brain like a box of whippersnappers when I see people using periods in sentences that require question marks. They don't realize that a sentence that starts with who/what/where/when/how/why by definition needs a question mark at the end.
Drives me bananas.
How was the concert. Did you have a good time. What was the best song. How did I graduate kindergarten with grammar like this.

It's Steven Wright.
