“You take a left at the thing, keep going until you get to that one house, then a right for about one or two or four blocks, and then a right until you to get to that one hill. Then just follow the trees.”
Back when I lived in the rust belt, I had a bad habit of giving directions based on things that weren’t there anymore and businesses that had long closed as if I was in my 80s instead of my teens.
turn left at the blockbusters, if you see a radio shack, you went too far into the past.
Now I want a Douglas Addams story about time travellers giving directions. even better if it tries to use time travel grammar.
Nobody’s asked me directions in at least ten years. And the last guy that did, spoke only French. He drove around Germany without a map or navigation system and asked random people in a language they were unlikely to understand. I bet he complained about how uncultured those Germans are, when he got home.
Do you also speak french? If not, that’s a lot of assumptions for a person you just briefly met.
No I don’t.
smartphones destroyed the asking strangers for directions industry
Oh shit, that place sounds like something with social interactions, and I don’t do those 🫣
