As someone who drives an F-150 for work, why are you speeding in a residential area? That’s dangerous.

Bless their hearts, they still believe doing this will appease tailgaters.

Usually people like that will freak out and pass me illegally if I go the actual speed limit.

Hey, if they want to meet the reaper early in a head-on collision, that's on them. I'll pass the dashcam footage to their next of kin.

Besides, a failure to budget time on their part does not constitute an emergency on mine. I will treat my instance of high speed heavy operating equipment, which we all had to get trained and licensed to operate by the way, with the respect it deserves.

A head on collision happening right next top your car or close in front of you would be dangerous for you too.

Sure, I don't care about angsty morons. It's annoying but I'm not going to speed on their behalf. I like torturing them by driving however I normally would, which is at the speed limit.

And that's precisely what I do too.
They can ride my bumper all they want, I'm not adding a single click of speed to the cruise control.

Because in many areas the roads are designed for a limit 15-20% higher than the posted limit, so it “feels safe” to go faster. Driving is largely a subconscious activity and traffic calming is an important part of safe road design.
