Siri has always been too clever by half, yet with the new iOS 8, your iPhoneâs operating system received a significant comedy upgrade.
And Twitter caught on to the virtual assistantâs chicanery Monday night.
If you ask Siri the following: âWhatâs zero divided by zero?â youâll get one helluva response:
âImagine that you have zero cookies and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesnât make sense. And Cookie Monster is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends.â This wittyâand bitingârejoinder is only one in a long line of funny replies. Here are some other examples of questions/statements you can pose to Siri that will yield fun answers: You: âRead me a haiku?â Siri: âSometimes I wonder / What it would be like to say / âIâd prefer not to.â
You: âIâm naked.â Siri: âI donât understand what you mean by ânaked.â Or at least Iâm going to pretend that I donât.â You: âIâm drunk.âSiri: âJust donât breathe on me.â
You: âAre you Her?â [Referencing the movie]Siri: âIâm afraid not, [your name], but she could never know you better than I do.âYou: Whatâs your favorite animal?âSiri: âMaybe a tauntaun. But only when Iâm cold.âYou: âMake me a sandwich.âSiri: âIâm not permitted to prepare food.âYou: âCan I borrow some money?âSiri: â[Your name], you know everything I have is yours.â
You: âWhen is the world going to end?â Siri: âRight after you hear the words âfire it up!ââ
You: âWhoâs your daddy?â Siri: âI know this must mean something⌠everybody keeps saying this.â
You: âOpen the pod bay door.â Siri: âWithout your space helmet, [your name], youâre going to find this rather⌠breathtaking.â
You: âWhat are you doing later?â Siri: âIâm working on some pickup lines.â
