I don't think I'd get this one since I'm adverse to the random sounds of truck noises while I'm trying to listen to my GPS

I'm not sure if I need this since I just installed the redneck version (new window)

Ok, its 93 north to 3, but its four traffic lights, you hit a Chevron station, and a little past that there's gonna be a retahded kid selling fireworks. Hang a left by him you're at the Jordan Marsh pal.

Are we supposed to laugh at the fact that in 3rd world countries they don't have streets with names and addresses ?


What's next ?, "Hey little girl, tell us about malaria !"

Oh, ah haha, hoho !

I was laughing at the fact that the directions sounded more complicated than they were, because she was a kid, and kids see things simply, but can't communicate them visually. Ask a kid to describe something simple (like baseball), and it's funny.

But, go on with your joyless existence in finding offense in everything ever.

Her directions were complicated BECAUSE she lives in some crap-hole without named streets and numbered addresses.

But, go on with your blinders to the real world.

Someone needs to come up with a Google maps equivalent that does this (give landmarks). I don't care if my GPS says to "turn right on Ivy Street" because it also tells me WHEN to turn right. If I don't have GPS and I'm just driving, I want instructions like you juts gave.

The funny thing is that she can see her house from where she is standing.

Why do you think she's African? Her accent is Caribbean Islander (probably Jamaican). Is it because she's black?

As a father of a 6yo and a 4yo I understood that perfectly well.

And, as a weekend dad it made me miss my babies. And smile.

My old crappy tom-tom has John Cleese telling me to "bear right... beaver left" so whatever.

Why does creepy guy want to know where the little girl lives? Chris Hansen would like to have a word with you, Sir!

I have buddy down the road from me that tells people "Head down the highway until you reach a row of silver mailboxes. Turn right at the mailboxes onto the gravel road then take a right at the horse".

First time I laughed when I heard it, but damned if there wasn't a real horse standing where he said it would be. Apparently that horse (he owns it) is a sort of the "guard dog" and will always run to that corner of the fence when it hears someone coming.

About like the time I asked for some directions in Mexico. It was "Go up that way for a while. You turn at the street with the yellow flowers on the corner. Keep going that way until you see the old man in a wheelchair with the three legged dog. Turn right."

And yes, there really was an old man in a wheelchair with a three legged dog out by the road. Directions were spot on.

I love getting local directions when I'm out and about, makes for an adventure some times. Best one I ever got included the gem "Turn left before the bridge that used to be painted green"

Hitchhiking in the UK one time, I once asked directions from a Scot on a bus in Ayr Scotland how to get to the M what ever it was hi way.
He explained how to for 3 minutes. I thanked him profusely, got off the bus and admitted to myself I hadn't understand a GD thing he had said.

That is awesome!

I wonder if there's a way to compare your map to a Google map or something?

A seat? Over there?

Okay!

/What could possibly go wrong?

GreatGlavinsGhost: I wonder if there's a way to compare your map to a Google map or something?

She says the name of a local crossroads/town/villiage/all-inclusive-resort at the beginning but I can't make it out. "Monnymaji"?

Here you'd have to replace the arches with Tim Horton's. But the result is the same.
