1) Whenever I’m in the car with Jennifer, she gets lost. Her dysrectional sensibilities are annoying.
2) Don’t assume Jeff knows how to read a map. He’s totally dysrectional.

Directional 

Used to describe silly-looking styles worn by ultra-fashionable people when you're not confident enough to come right out and say they look silly. You're worried this is a new fashion you don't know about yet, so you say the tweed shirt with a gold tie or whatever is 'directional'.
Look at all these posers with their directional haircuts. I wish I was in Wigan.

bi-directional smack 

The process of talking smack back and forth. E.g.- between colleagues.

Usually referenced when someone is willing to talk smack, but unable to take it...
Dustin does not adhere to the principle of bi-directional smack. He talks smack, but cannot take it. Therefor he is a hypocritical clown.

Directionally Retarded 

A state beyond directionally challenged. One who is directionally retarded is legitimately useless at navigating anywhere, either by vehicle or by foot. This includes following a navigation system, going to locations they have been to countless times, or even as simple as following someone else's directions who is sitting in the passenger seat of your car. No matter the circumstances, no matter the stakes, one with directional retardation will simply always find a way to fuck it up. This accumulation of wrong turns and missed exits during any voyage means that they are generally always late to everything.
Driver- Ok, what exit do I take?
Passenger- Take exit 4 and then turn right onto cherry street.
Driver (takes exit 5 and then turns left onto Apple street)- Sorry, I'm directionally retarded
