    I have a maps service on for trips I do every day. I don’t even need to learn how to get there, I just like the beep-boop arrow showing where I am like a videogame minimap.

    We put spaceships in orbit just to use them as a marker by doing magic relativity maths and you’re telling me you don’t constantly just look at that shit? That’s crazy. I can look at it in my watch now. How do you guys do anything else when you’re outside?

    Finding the way from here to there is one of man’s oldest jobs. He’s quite good at it overall. In fact, had he not been proficient, your ancestry wouldn’t have produced you.

    Now, man is cooped up in a cubicle, or best case a small box with a transparent glass window view of his old world. Now he’s asked to give long hours of “jumping on calls”, “circling back”, “thinking outside the box”, and chasing the “low hanging fruit” all in exchange for tiny green pieces of paper.

    He’s standing in the shadow of his former glory.

    For god sakes woman, let the man find the way today.

    Google Maps? tf no. Offline, opensource, privacy friendly maps for me, thanks. Are all women the same?

    I’ll often use maps to go to somewhere that I know exactly how to get to, just in case I’m wrong. Perhaps the map has me go a way that has a blind intersection that I’d prefer to avoid, and I can make note of that so that I can still feel superior.

    Back before I lived on an island with two stop lights, I regularly used Google Maps for places I already knew how to get to, purely because I wanted the most efficient route.

    I use maps every day if only for traffic data.

    I have never ever met a man who won’t open up a map. 3/10 didn’t enjoy meme much at all.
