There, fixed it for you.

Sun goes east to west. Only 4 options on the compass.. what time is it and then just think of Never Eat Shredded Wheat and figure it out. Easy

Ignore those idiots, these are mfkers that would walk into the woods with no compass bc it is standardized concept. North isnt an address and sure as shit not a way to navigate in these modern concrete jungles.

If you REMEMBER BY Temporary tenants who might not be there after lease expiry… You would get lost again.

Using Columbus as a comparison when talking about knowing where you’re going is certainly a choice. Also, maybe you should just learn what direction north is.

He: go towards Target.
She: which way is that?
He: …north.

My sister didnt know her left and right and I had to physically point in the direction she had to go.

I never understood this. I turn on a road that looks like it’s heading north and then it’s windy and curves a million times until I actually end up having gone very west. I guess it’s just because I’m in Appalachia.

Are you from Pennsylvania? Those sound suspiciously like Pennsylvania directions. But still to specific. In Pennsylvania our directions usually involve such things as “turn left at where the old tree was…no the one that got struck by lightning in 1973… yes the one across from where the Smith’s old house was.”
And remember if you’re driving in Pittsburgh, you may be able to see your destination across the street but it’s gonna take about twelve turns, and at least fifteen minutes to get there!! Good luck!!!

Street name + relative directions (left/right) are objectively the most useful. They still work even when there are two Taco Bells in sight, and at those weird intersections where three roads meet up and there’s five different ways to turn (is it southeast or east-southeast??). The only time they don’t work is when there are two roads in close proximity with the same name, which does sometimes happen but is much more rare than the other scenarios.

Directions for the landmarks only GPS generation.
