I have that same annoying lady in my car. Like you said, she is pretty much scolding you for making her 'recalculate' ... by the way, she can be wrong occasionally too!

I think I may have put her over the edge because lately she drifts off the road and thinks she is indoors in the middle of a trip.

How sad! The worst is every single time I leave home she tries to tell me to go a route that makes NO sense because it involves taking a left onto a busy road. If I'm quick, I can get past that first 'wrong' turnoff before she locates the satellites and tells me she is recalculating. Now one of the other problems is that I'm seemingly incapable of learning how to get to any new place that she guided me to. I could go a new place using a map and after two times I'd have it memorized, but suddenly she has induced dependence on me... it's a conspiracy to get me to upgrade my maps no doubt ;-] I regularly feel the same way about my GPS, and this is MY GPS, not one one belonging to my my hubby.

I know it's a woman, but those things remind me of Hal from that freaky movie where the computer talks and can read lips. Then the poor guy has to shut it down . . . "Bob. Bob. What are you doing, Bob? . . ." FREAK-Y! I’ve named my GPS (on my phone) Hal. I know it’s a woman, but those things remind me of Hal from that freaky movie where the computer talks and can read lips.

That was so funny...and I have to say that I use my GPS to go EVERYWHERE. I seriously can get to about 7 places w/o it. The rest of the time I'm programming it in. ROFL!

I hate those things. They freak me out too. I would rather just google directions at home and read them for myself. Or get lost and enjoy the solitude. :) So funny!! I hate those things.

He was cracking me up talking about it freaking out on him. It is rather frighting when it suddenly talks after a stretch of quiet!
