” “Stop texting and pay attention to your driving you EFFING MORON!!” “

In the late 70s/early 80s, I rode in a friend’s car (a Chrysler product, I think) that was equipped with ‘voice prompts’ for “fasten your seatbelt”, “check your mirror”, and many others - so that it seemed that the damned thing was constantly talking...

Now, the ‘voice’ was female, and while I guess it was supposed to be ‘sexy’, it eventually seemed whiny and irritating - my reaction at the time was that if I wanted to be nagged nonstop while driving, I would have stayed married... ;)

Like the gal on the Garmin GPS that nags every time she has to recalculate because you found a better route.
