Even Siri Is Down on the Dodgers

I knew the score, but wanted to experiment with Siri's capabilities.


Damn, Siri, I just asked what the score was. Didn't need you to get all subjective and shit. Good use of the semi-colon, though.

I tried it and she said "crushed" instead. Nice to know she has a thesaurus.

Interesting. I wonder if there is a points threshold, like if the scoreline were 4-3, would she say "edged"?

if only we could score 3 runs in a game, we could actually test that out

and fuck Siri. I bet she has something cute to say about Brian Wilson

(makes sweet, sweet love to Siri)

That totally reminds me of the old toll free service, Tell Me. Voice activated menu for scores, remember?

Me: "Sports......baseball.....Dodgers"

TellMe: "The Dodgers.....edged.....the Giants....by a score of 4 to 3."

The best part is, now Dusty is going to be caught talking in a toilet stall.

Years ago I had Richie Rich as my avatar. It provided endless fun exploiting the irony of what I would say (e.g., "Sweet shit-sucking Jesus!" and the innocence of the cartoon smiling boy.

Siri should be called Surly, and she can kiss my fine white ass.

PLAYOFFS?
