... Torie

That being said, if GPS is an anti-male movement, then I've gotta use GPS more.

Oh, and lest we forget,  here are some words of wisdom from Breitbart:

"Because [Yiannopoulos mentioning his sexuality] is an effective way to condition you into believing that homosexual behavior is normal."

"I have never had a GPS. Not once have I used one. I moved across country without one in 2006, and have made over a dozen cross country drives since then without one.

People look at me like I'm nuts when I say I don't have one. GPS is for lamers."

"I love turning on my GPS for destinations that I've been to so many times that I could drive there in my sleep. And when that nagging b--ch starts whinging about the missed turns and how I should turn around at every intersection and driveway, I just tell her to eat s--t and die.

It's so cathartic."

"Have
you also noticed that in more and more car commercials the woman is
driving, and the man sits in the passenger seat looking like a dope?"

"What better way for a culture to get you to accept homosexual behavior as normal than to have a homosexual 'men's rights' man rag on women.

That way, you increase his fame and his influence while ignoring--or perhaps begrudgingly accepting--his homosexual behavior and advocacy because he's sticking up for the oppressed male."

"What's needed is a Donald Trump voice option - "You've deviated from the route I chose for you. You're fired! Stop the car and get out now!!!" "You've arrived at your destination without getting lost. That's yuuuuuuuge!"

And, if you're an illegal alien, the only directions it will give you are either back to Mexico or the nearest airport."

"'Here is a whole list of
accidents caused by GPS and related mapping software. These stories may
be amusing to you, but they should also be a stark lesson.'

No. It's still amusing because I appreciate nature's way of weeding out the truly stupid."

"I've been saying the same thing about not wanting to listen to some nagging woman tell me what to do for years. I always try to switch to a man's voice if possible just so it doesn't bug the crap out of me with this annoying lady with an incredibly patronizing voice."

"Milo real men use GPS we don't however use Tom tom or its ilk as its not compatible with the MGRS (Military Grid Reference System) and we don't take directions, we plot our own course from line of departure to way point to way point to destination and rally point for exfil. I also live in Arizona where the passenger seat is reserve'd for loyal dogs bossy feminist women ride behind the truck in the trailer with the rest of the cows. ;-)"

I agree GPS is dumbing down people's navigation skills but Jesus Christ, this article is offensive.

Well, I was a weapon of mass destruction on this thread. BRTD you should know better than do this here. Commenting negatively on other posters in this sort of way, is just not good idea. And then the thread becomes all about personalities. God invented FC for a reason. Vent there, not here, please. I am not going to infract however - this time.

^

Also, the fact that Milo Yiannopulos is...mainstream now or something? I'm hearing about him, more and more, in contexts outside the dankest and most troll-infested corners of the internet. I heard about him in real life, at a Bible study* the other night--that fact is itself a much more horrifying indictment of the cultural moment than any one thing he has said or might say.

*This Bible study includes a woman who may or may not think she's a cat and a man who responded to my 'isn't the architecture of the Valley of the Fallen craptacular?' conversation-starter by sagely saying 'Francisco Franco was a dictator'. He also bragged about getting a mole that had been shown to be benign removed and getting MassHealth to pay for this entirely cosmetic procedure by claiming it as a biopsy. I don't think I should go to this Bible study again.

On the contrary, this sounds like an absolutely fascinating Bible study to attend.

And yet, that's what every college freshman does orientation week - use a map to get around.  I get that it's exaggeration, but the whole "youth know nothing!!!!" shtick is a bit tiresome.

People tell me I am a great navigator with my internal compass/map intuition. I tell them, 'not great - nimble'
Great way to get voted into the passenger seat.

Can't you change that to a man's voice?  Insecure men like Milo wouldn't mind having Ronald Reagan give them directions.

I've never used GPS.
