I'm kickstarting this bitch.
So my girl sucks ass at navigation and shit. FUCK! I've told her time and time again that it's important to me and to take it seriously but she just throws it back in my face and laughs. FUCK! again. What am I supposed to do? Give up or keep pressing?

I almost started an 'ask fuckface anything' thread yesterday since you often (try to) 1st!! me on the other board.
I'm not sure what you're asking here. Do you mean that she sits in the passenger seat and refuses to tell you where to turn?
Or are you trying to get her to join the Scouts and she just will NOT learn to use a compass?
Either way your answer lies in your smartphone. I won't be here tomorrow until later in the evening. So I'm sure someone else will have a great answer before then.

Yes to the passenger seat and refuses/is reluctant to help answer. I know my phone can do it but I'm actually one of the few who prefers to keep my eyes on the road and would rather have assistance when I don't know where the FUCK I'm going. She tunes me out when I go through plan beforehand probably because she's more worried about her makeup and whatnot but for some stupid reason I think she's paying attention and then we get on the road and it's like "What the hell are you talking about?"

Dude just get a nav device that talks and stick it on your windshield when you're driving. <$100. Your girlfriend isn't going to change. She doesn't care about this and she never will.

My wife is terrible at directions as well. We both have iphones, but I have to pull over and look at her map so I can see which way to turn since she can't tell by looking.
Supposedly there's turn by turn navigation in the next map update on ios so maybe that will help.

Jerma, you must not have an iphone. They are shit for navigation and like hell am I going to buy a nav device when this piece of shit is supposedly a $600 do-it-all device. My cheapo android used to kick ass until the battery gave up the ghost, but google on the browser is more than enough to do the trick as long as someone take the time to look at it. I'm not FUCKING asking for much, shit, I never ask for anything, just this one thing and it's like pulling teeth.

I'm single and don't have a human navigator. I've been using a Garmin with turn by turn directions for a few years now. It has never let me down. And when my mom is in the car I don't have to worry about her fucking up the whole trip by not paying attention and shouting TURN HERE!! right as I'm passing the turn.
The Garmin is one of my favorite and most used gadgets. It has gotten me out of more than a couple weird places in Atlanta. Especially when there's a Braves game and the downtown connector is backed up for 5 miles. A nice Aussie guy tells me how to get home without using the Interstate. Love that guy.

Find another solution and be happy. (or don't and be miserable)

Dammit. I refuse to buy a dedicated gps. I guess I'm just as stubborn as my girl. I bet you wished that Garmin vibrated.

I thought injuns were natural trackers. I guess not being able to put her ear to the ground and listen for hoove beats is throwing her.

Well I used to call him Squidward until the movie came out. Dr. Manhattan was a man of many talents. Not just going all Alice in Wonderland. He could also multiply himself and take me to another planet.

I hadn't looked at it like that, makes perfect sense. I'm renaming this thread to Ask Backsack Whatever.

He could also multiply himself and take me to another planet. This brings me to another question. My girl has like multiple O's and she says the ones that follow are easier to attain. Is that the case with most girls?
