“Computers are about trying to murder you in a lake. And to me, the choice is easy.”

Recently, three women in Seattle rented a car and drove it into a lake because they were following the directions given to them by their GPS. I wonder at what point they were like “Oh no! It’s the lake!”

The important thing is everyone made it out safely. And renter’s insurance. Both of those are important.

Here is the news report:



Does all of this remind you of anything? Like the time technology tried to kill Michael Scott? That was one of my Top 5 Office moments, so it was the first thing I thought of when I heard this story.

PS. I also found this video on Youtube when I was looking for the ‘Michael driving into the lake’ scene. Someone took that episode and turned it into a movie trailer similar to There Will Be Blood. It’s pretty good. I would have included it but they had embedding disabled so you will just have to click the link. I promise, it is an entertaining 2-3min.
