off-ramp

Someone who is trying to maintain a relationship they don't want. Their zodiac sign looks like the off-ramp icon on a map

They keep asking when we're gonna break up but they won't break things off, I think they're just an off-ramp

Off ramp

The person who safely brings you out of a long term or involved relationship.

I know he’s not going to commit to anything but sex right now, as he’s just finishing a ten year relationship. I’m his off ramp.

off-ramp blocking

the practice of some drivers that prevents others from changing lanes to exit a freeway or other high-speed roadway. the blocker is between the car exiting and the actual exit, and must be travelling in the lane furthest right (in left-hand-drive countries only,) and going at the same speed as the exiting car. this action can cause massive amounts of road rage because often drivers take extreme measures to maintain their position or to get off the road. the blocked driver must usually take the next exit, which is no problem in big cities. when out in the middle of nowhere, however, the next exit may be many miles ahead, increasing the feelings of road rage. note: if the exiting driver is trying to get off from the far left lane, he is a dumbass and should have his license revoked. in this case off-ramp blocking has not occured.

bonnie: these people are so rude here!! i was trying to change lanes so i could get off at 76th street, but some dumbass in a kia spectra stayed alongside of me for miles! i couldn't get off until national avenue!! what a bastard!!
connie: yeah, it's a real problem on the new bypass. lonnie calls it off-ramp blocking, but i call it sheer stupidity.
lonnie: you betcher ass, ladies!!

Premature Off-Rampulation

The act of getting of the freeway or interstate too early. Missing your exit sign or taking a wrong offramp from any road.

Hey Todd what are you doing? We have like two more exits before we get off the freeway. Dammit Todd you got off too early, another example of Premature Off-Rampulation.

oklahoma offramp

a bare patch on the median or freeway right-of-way where people exit the freeway illegally; often is found exactly halfway between official roadway exits, and is used mostly during periods of high-volume, slow-speed traffic. drivers who resort to this technique are distinguished by their impatience, churlishness, and general disregard for public safety. periodically one will observe that users of the oklahoma offramp have become mired in soft ground following heavy rains and such.

"man, the oklahoma offramp up by legacy looks like it gets 350 cars a day... i think the state should just get with it and pave that damn thing. you know, they like to mess up these oklahoma offramps with decorative tree plantings..."
