Angry Stupid fucking Mapquest.

I wanna look at directions to Alpine Valley. Or find a map.

But apparently the road that is given for the address of the venue does not exist. Dur.

So where is East Troy, exactly?

No, I did that.

I'm looking for how long it takes to get there from where I live.

And I've not driven anywhere so I'm an idiot and don't know where anything is so I can't judge anything.

wtf

Mapquest is stupid. If I went how it says to go, I'd go about 20 minutes out of my way right at the start of the drive.

I spent 2 years taking 10 extra minutes to get to my friend's house thanks to Mapquest.

my friend has a good idea. When you get directions to his house on mapquest it tells you to go the wrong way down this one one way street. he wants to do it and get into an accident and sue mapquest. probably should be researched a bit i recon

They have stuff all over the site that basically says they can't be held responsible for anything.

When did everyone stop using real maps, which don't lie, and you can pick your own route?

Atlas 4 U? Any car should have a map in the glovebox, anyway, just in case you need to get somewhere you're unfamiliar with. Being prepared is a very good thing.

I don't drive. I'm not in a car.

If I were really needing to know exactly where I was going right now, I'd get an atlas out.

Oh, Eulogy, Eulogy.
I blew a kiss to you, but you only looked at me incredulously.

I went to hug you,
Maybe give you kisses, just a few.

But you said no,
And hit me in the face with a shovel meant for snow.

Why is it you've abandoned our love?
I only wanted to hold you in my arms, my love.

We could leave this place, and go far, far away.
In a hot, tropical paradise we could stay.

All I need from you is a kiss.
Just one, directly on the lips.

My love is solid; I do not care how you react.
Just do not hit me with a bat.
Unless it is the one in your trousers - the one that is fat.

Ahhh Mapquest is shit. My family needed directions to a family reunion that was held in some forest in Arizona...the directions we got told us to go on a road that wasn't paved, and it took us an extra two hours to get to the place.
