    I think there is a hidden Midwest theme here of driving in the left lane at all times regardless of speed or passing.

    Having grown up as an only child with stoner parents, I can't relate, but I did get invited to accompany friends on road trips like these once in a while, and some of this is definitely accurate. The "let's play who can stay quiet the longest" was one that some of my friends' parents would do pretty often, and also the weird cringy flirtation when they thought the children couldn't hear them.

      There are a number of them just off I- 41 between Green Bay and Milwaukee. Don't have to look far. Been there a long time.
