I've had people give directions saying, ''turn left 3 blocks
BEFORE you come to the 7-11''. Sheesh!

How about, "Hang a left where Joe's barn used to be."?

that's a good one too. When I was a teen, at work, they sent me
out to pick up some parts. The old timer truck driver was giving
me directions, when he got to ''go a few blocks till you see an
old woman with a German Shepherd dog on the corner, turn right
there''. The shop guys busted out laughing and ribbing him. He
winked and said, you'll see , Scotty. I left, cause I didn't care
if I got lost as I was on the clock anyway. Sure as ****, she
was there with the dog and I found the place no problem.
