GPS or MAP

Since GPS landed , maps have become virtually obsolete, being the ugly girl in the party, anyone use them?

I am a nostalgic or deluded and I love them, or perhaps is the fact that I like to control and follow the line I want, turn them over to the map, or understand where I go, and distrust of the "little voice". I never liked being told what I have to do, ever, and still the little voice gives me a feeling among disability and laziness, moreover I love deploy a map, follow the path with the finger, understand the latitude, location, or I have two radical options, follow my nose, or just get lost, that's wonderful, not following map either guide, most, not pre-determined to anything worse in case you need to get to a point, who said the shortest path is GPS? I realized my love for maps when at the beginning of GPS era, one of them dropped me off  circling around a roundabout on the outskirts of London, feeling ridiculous, did not know where I was ...

I would not trust someone who follows a GPS? I will keep true to my beloved maps, GPS and shot occasionally, and Ohhh YEEEES,  I get lost eventually...
