Sync voice

Was on a business trip today, few hundred miles, mind wandering, got to thinking, what would navigation be like if they used Ozzy Osborne for the voice?

 

Or perhaps Tiny Tim ("Tip Toe Through The Tulips" fame).

 

Or perhaps the foul-mouthed Marine drill sergeant R. Lee Ermey? "Turn now, maggot. You missed the turn, you worthless moron, get #### outta you ears. Now make a ####### U turn. NOW YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF ####. TURN or I'll kill the ignition".

 

Mind wonders after an hour or two on the road and nav voice gets annoying.

I don't know if they still do it but you used to be able to download alternate voices for some Garmin and Tom Tom GPS models. You could get different languages of course and even British vs American English (complete with accents) but you could also get different genders and some famous voices... Darth Vader, Yoda, The Terminator, Mr. T, The Simpsons, and a whole list of Warner Brothers cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam.
