I don't like getting driving directions from humans because they usually consist of unnecessary steps that usually include the words "keep going."  Something as simple as

1. Turn right on First Street.
2. Go five miles.
3. Turn left on Second Street.

becomes

1. At the intersection of First Street, there's a gas station and a supermarket and a little store that sells garden gnomes.
2. Make a right.
3. You'll pass three roads on your right and two on your left.  Keep going.
4. You'll see a purple house on your left.  Keep going.
5. Right after the railroad tracks, there's a nuclear reactor with King Kong climbing up the cooling tower.  Keep going.
6. Go around the bend near the bank.
7. Keep going straight.
8. The road will end.  There will be a stop sign.  There will also be a coffee place and an ocean on your right.
9. Make a left.

An architect in London built a house that included a slide next to the staircase, leading to this awesomely inviting image: 
I don't think there's a person alive today who hasn't slid down the stairs on their butt.  This would make it like a billion times better.  (via Neatorama) #products
