Anyone else thinks that Google sucks, more and more ? (rant!)

Or another example, say the posted speed limit is 65 MPH, but the flow of traffic is 75 MPH, ill wager you'll be going with the flow of traffic, or at a minimum, doing 5 over. Furthermore, more often then not, someone doing the speed limit, or even 5 under, becomes a safety hazard to the flow of traffic.

Not really. I do tend to stay in the slow lane, though.

Don't tell me you have NEVER crossed the street outside boundaries of a crosswalk.

Sure, when the crosswalk is several hundred feet away. On the other hand I never cross against the light.

What I'm saying is that 100% strict adherence to the letter of rules and laws is unrealistic, and unattainable. We all bend or break them a little bit, even the most high moral and law abiding amongst us in society.

I've saved your first comment for last, since you didn't ask me if I've never lied. I'm not quite a compulsive liar, but I realized long ago that I'm habitually dishonest. I make a point of trying not to lie, cheat or steal, yet I'm painfully aware of the times I still do all of those. On the other hand I'm perfectly willing to talk about those, so while I'm conflicted I don't consider myself hypocritical. You might say that these days I'm brutally honest about my own dishonesty.

So no, it's not about the language. I just don't like seeing the rules being ignored. Sure I'm over-zealous sometimes. I admit it. That said, if the rule were to change tomorrow I'd roll with it.
