what the fuck makes phone apps so cocky as to send me notifications telling me to use it. my grocery list app straight up went “you havent made a list in a while!” are you out of your fucking mind. you are a program. why are you speaking to me like youre my equal. i could replace you with a pen and the back of a receipt. idiot. i kill you now

      The only ground i will give in this argument is when my headphones tell me the battery is low.

        I don’t like those either. I like the tones the airpods use. A single beep has no intrinsic meaning. But the tone it uses for low battery is as intuitive as it can get. Also if you don’t speak English the voice is just as useless as the tone. Especially if it’s something like this.

        That said my friend has a headset that announces “mic on” and “mic off” and we get far too much enjoyment out of mocking it saying my cock.

      It makes me more angry that it should that Alexa talks back to me when I ask it to do stuff.

      “NOW CONNECTED TO YOUR PHONE!”

      YES I FUCKING KNOW BECAUSE YOU MADE THE BEEPING NOISE YOU MAKE AND THAT’S OK BUT DON’T FUCKING TALK TO ME

        Your problem is having an Alexa in the first place. That’s a simple fix, though. Your local recycling center will take e-waste.
