New GPS Voice Skins! A Video Review
by Michael Swaim
At first I thought TomTom’s decision to add downloadable “voice skins” to their GPS system was kind of silly, but I’ve got to admit, after trying some of them out for myself, I’m totally sold. Download yours today, and start letting celebrities tell you what to do directly, rather than just imitating them in hopes of attracting a mate!
When not blogging for Cracked, Michael makes consumer review videos as head writer and co-founder of Those Aren’t Muskets!

That was, bar none, the best Louis Armstrong impression I’ve heard all day.

IT’S NOT THAT KINDA SEX HOTEL, DAD! WHY DO YOU NEVER RESPECT MY DECISIONS?
When I saw this video I was thinking “The voice skins can’t really be bad impressions spouting catchphrases betwen directions.” but it turns out that they are.

Seriously, I would use that Beatles one just so I could listen to those sweet accents.

Me too. I love Lennon Murphy!

I regret to inform you that you have a lawsuit on your hands.
The name Lennon Murphy is too similar to Eddie Murphy, Brittany Murphy, and Murphy Brown.
I suggest you find yourself a lawyer.

I laughed when Swaim cried at the end.

I just plugged “Sex Hotel” into my GPS and I’m getting nothing. I guess I’ll just have to find my own way. Maybe I could get Robin Williams to give me directions to Starbucks, where I can throw my Robin Williams GPS device at the Starbucks drive-through employee and drive off in a fit of pique. That would probably give me just as much satisfaction as a sex hotel.

Hey, his mom’s not dead! According to TomTom she has a home and an office! Unless “Mom” and “Dad” are nicknames for his sex workers.

Dad, yeah, that’s probably his dad and not a sex name. Mom, on the other hand……..

Mellowship, go to the actual YouTube page. Sometimes the embedded videos don’t work because YouTube hates you.

Is this true, Swaim? Have you been making videos like this at tallmingle.com? Did you lead them here?
I don’t approve of the use of sex hotels. They often smell funny, and every surface inside is usually sticky. Besides, Mrs. glendoor42 doesn’t like to split the cost.

I’d love to hear the guy who played the drill sergaent in Full Metal jacket, R. Lee Ermey, as one of the celebrity voices.
“TURN LEFT ON ELM, MAGGOT!!! DO I SEE TEARS?!?!?! STICK YOUR THUMB IN YOUR MOUTH YOU MOMMA’S BOY AND CONTINUE NORTH FOR 20 CLICKS!”
