DO NOT TRUST MAPQUEST!!!
my best friend picked up me today at 5AM cuz he had to take his final down in philly. since he had never driven down there before without his parents, he decided to pritn out directions jsut incase... well it turns out, mapquest made up a few street names and we got lost. not only were we lost but alter realized, it took us around teh whole philly just to get to temple. how gay! so anyway, have any of you guys ever had a bad experience with online directions?? |

QUOTE(Spencer @ Dec 14 2007, 02:29 AM)  Guys don't ask for directions. They make up their own. Googlemap > mapquest. But GPS > googlemap. I used mapquest to get to one of my friends houses (2 hours away) and we were so close, well I had been there before, I just couldn't remember how to get to her house from a certain point. Well, we were driving, and I was like "I think we were suppose to turn back there, but mapquest says otherwise...." So we drove a bit farther, I ended up calling her, and we had to turn around. |
