I feel a great disturbance in my pants

Yes, I am in the left (fast) lane. I am driving a relatively safe speed of 5 mph over the speed limit, as is common. You do not need to go faster than that. You are so close you're practically in my trunk you impatient gently caress.

Depending on where you live it may actually be illegal for you to do this if you're not actively passing somebody :)

If you mean illegal to be IN the fast lane unless passing, rather than being a general "avoid using the fast lane unless passing", I was not aware of that. I try to be as accommodating as possible, but still.

In some U.S. states (and probably other places too) cops can ticket you for hanging out in the fast lane without passing or getting over if you're holding up traffic by doing so: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/08/us/more-states-are-cracking-down-on-left-lane-slowpokes.html?_r=0

Personally, I think the rationale is a little bit goofy, but you never really know why somebody in the left lane is speeding. Could be a medical emergency, could be an rear end in a top hat, could just really have to poop. It's not really my place to make that call.
