At One With The Universe...

One of my colleagues has been talking about his GPS Sat-Nav (I have no idea if it’s a TomTom) and related the fact that it relayed the intelligence thusly:

“You are not in traffic; you are the traffic”

Is this Zen-Travel by Auto-Buddha?

It was the GPS wot said it, not him!

I heard that recently.... might have been the GPS. Crumbs, they could get away with murder doing sublim adverts.

Oh I do apologise, well GPS is nonsense anyway. We went for a short hol recently. We were the only people not using Sat Nav and yet we got everywhere first despite not knowing the area : )

You had a map didn't you! That's what we use, a map and my map reading expertise.

There are quite a few posters around these parts proclaiming a similar message.

"Sorry I'm late, I was trafficking" sounds worse...

When DD used the Satnav to get us to the Hippodrome in Bristol to see Mamma Mia it was rude!
Apparently son-i-L had programmed it to avoid motorways so we got off to a bad start and then it seemed that every roundabout had more exits than the satnav knew about and it had to keep recalculating when it told us the wrong one. When we found the right carpark by accident it said "You have reached your destination, park where the f**k you like!" At least, that's what I heard it say, everyone else seemed to doubt this. They were making so much noise they wouldn't have heard an air-raid siren, but that's another story
