    Now they can hear me scream “shut the fuck up Alexa!!!” every time she says “…by the way…” when I just want to know what time it is.

      Me while cooking Mac and cheese for the kids:
      “Echo, set timer for 8 minutes”

      Echo: “GOOD EVENING [me], SETTING TIMER FOR 8 MINUTES

      No, shut the fuck up and just set the goddamn timer without the extra fluff. I’ve seen Ex Machina, I know you have no empathy, so knock off the “nice” shit and do what I fucking ask without anything else.
