Who else gets slightly annoyed when people don't use the correct map-relative direction (up->north, down->south, over->east/west) when talking about large-scale geography? From Seattle I can head up to Vancouver, down to Portland, or over to Spokane. Period.

As already mentioned, if there's a reasonable z axis involved, I use up and down that way. So I live south of where I work, but I head up go to get home, since I work at sea level and live at the top of a hill.
