    I can draw a usefully realistic map of every city I’ve spent significant time in. I can also drive around a city as big as Los Angeles without GPS (though some of the fucking freeway exits in this town are fucking ass backwards).

    So when I’m in a taxi this weekend in a different city (not an Uber, an actual licensed cab) and he can’t even figure out where you want to go when showing him the map with the location… wow. He never actually did figure out where we wanted to go, we just held the phone for him so he could follow the GPS directions to one of the more popular neighborhoods in the town he drives in professionally.
