I often post conversations on this blog that I have with my children. Here are a few I’ve had with my new automated assistant, “Siri”:
Me: Call Amy Plumlee.
Siri: I cannot find anyone named Sammy Chumlee in your contacts.
Me: (Speaking slowly) Call Amy Plumlee.
Siri: I cannot find anyone named Blamey Chum in your contacts.
Me: (A little faster and louder) Call Amy Plumlee.
Siri: I cannot find anyone named Aaaaaa Meeeee.
Me: Find a restaurant nearby.
Siri: There are three restaurants that aren’t too far from you.
Me: Siri, I’m in downtown Washington, DC. There’s no way there are only three restaurants near me, especially since I can see five around me right now!
Me: Find the XX post office.
Siri: I’m sorry, I can’t process any requests right now.
Me: Find the XX post office.
Siri: I’m sorry, I can’t process my requests right now.
Me: Yes, you said that.
Me: Wash the dishes and mop the floor.
Siri: I’m sorry, I don’t understand wash the dishes and mop the floor.

Thanks for making me laugh out loud as I start my day today!
Prayers for all of you and especially little Ryan. Hope he is healing and not too cranky.
haahahahahah! Gotta love technology!
Have a great day and I hope the grumpies have left the house!
Hilarious! I love how you talk to her like she’s a person!
My teenager likes to ask “Where’s the nearest toilet?” It cracks her and her sister up every time. Hope your little Ryan is feeling better (and that you got some well-deserved rest)!!
