While traveling Atlanta, I had occasion to use my Blackberry's GPS. I used it until the battery died because I am a man and I do not ask for directions, or navigation assistance- even from my wife. When mine died (phone, not wife) I used my son's phone. Putting aside that I didn't have GPS when I was a kid, and had to ride my bike to school (two miles each way, uphill, both ways, and was happy to do it) let alone have GPS (Apollo 11 didn't have GPS for cryin' out loud, and they went to the moon) I started using his. What was I going to do? Stop and ask for directions?!
GPS was apparently programmed by friends of my wife, because it started in in a remarkably similar fashion with progressively more and more irritating comments escalating as follows:
"you are now off course"
"you are continuing off course"
"you have not corrected your course"
"replotting new course based on your new position"
"you are significantly farther from your destination than when you started"
"you did not properly execute the recommended course change"
"are you incapable of following directions"
"is there something wrong with you"
and finally (as if SHE can take directions).... "please put your wife on the phone"
Fine. Let the wife deal with the phone. I'm getting out of the car. Pardon me; Minivan. How degrading.
