New Greta Thunberg GPS Lectures You When Refusing More Eco-Friendly Route

"How dare you?" Thunberg was heard admonishing a driver during a test run. "I have offered you an opportunity to atone for your sins against our great planet and turn away from the evil you and your fellow humans have wrought in our environment, yet you refuse. You have ravaged the earth and stolen my dreams and my childhood. Turn left here."

One driver who tested out the system wholeheartedly vouched for its belligerence. "I really did feel ashamed of myself," he said. "After choosing not to take the more eco-friendly route, I spent the next 10 minutes being berated by the voice of Greta Thunberg herself. It felt like she was sitting in the car with me making me feel awful about my choices. It's the most self-righteous GPS I've ever used."

The graphic they use is hilarious. And I'd bet this isn't far off from reality. There's probably enough Thunberg audio out there for someone to generate an overlay that will accomplish it. 

Earlier GPS devices (TomTom in particular) would allow you to upload voice files for a more entertaining experience. My then-4YO granddaughter loved the Darth Vader voice I downloaded, while my wife and I preferred the one John Cleese recorded. To this day, when the generic voice says, "Bear right," we both say, "Beaver left."
