Is it possible to love an electronic device?

If so, I think this directionally challenged person is entering into a long term relationship with his GPS.

12. that would be

an "electrical" device....electronic implies a whole nother level of sophistication, usually involving microprocessors and stuff, not just a vibrating motor with batteries....

2. I think there was something about that on Boston Legal a couple weeks ago

This woman was in love with a filing cabinet, but eventually dumped it for a clock radio, or something like that.

16. It was a utility box that she was in love with.

It got removed and destroyed and she was totally distraught. That's when she took up with the clock radio. :rofl:

3. Sure. Just don't LOVE it, if you know what I mean

The input ports are designed for something else...

7. I do. ;-)

I can also talk back to it when I'm in a foul mood.

As I get older, getting lost gets me very agitated and upset. Almost in a panic.
