God, I love sending bug reports to Google Maps. It feels so neighborly, so cordial, and yet so passive-aggressive. >:D

But look at this shit. This is why I have to giggle at people who try to navigate without ever looking up from their phones. Google literally can not see things that are RIGHT THERE. goo.gl/maps/a1Jf7gfUdBt

(Also, if you happen to see anything except a failed search for "Produkty" right over a building labeled "Produkty," you'd be doing me a huge and very practical favor if you'd let me know. :) )

I see a successful search for a "Mysprzedajemy Polski Produkty"
in Garfield NJ

@001zlnv *blinkblink* Seriously?

Good lord. This is pretty much what I was afraid was happening. We've been having problems, as you can imagine, with our Indian team seeing TOTALLY DIFFERENT RESULTS THAN WE DO for the exact same search links. Because Google, you know, "loves to help."

@zebratron2084 yep. seriously, even though the map is in russia, it showed me a polish grocery in new jersey
