a third of the poeple you would ask didn’t know, and another third were wrong. I would always ask multiple people until i got the same instrructions twice.
I got asked once. It was just after starting school in a new state. I had no car and had never driven in that state. Someone asked where ‘M’ was. I was completely confused, and managed to answer “between L and N?”. They thanked me and left. I later found out that in that state, county roads had letters instead of numbers. I have no idea where I sent those poor folks.
Being that I’m tall, occasionally a stranger will ask my help to get something off a high shelf in the supermarket. Glad they haven’t invented an app for that yet.

Mostly they ask where’s a good place for lunch. We have a lot of visitors.

Walking into posts or traffic seems to be the natural way of thinning the herd. And the Igor Slump is gathering more followers each day.

I don’t mind if it’s just a few blocks away.

Nowadays, can you really trust anyone to give you honest directions without setting you up?

She probably talked for 10minutes and left the asker more confused than ever.
