That Potty-mouthed Siri!

From time to time, people will ask the virtual assistant on their smart phone or tablet for assistance. On the iPhone her name is Siri. Apparently she is a potty-mouthed Siri!

Over the weekend I saw a post that said if you were going to ask Siri to “define the word mother” to be careful you weren’t around any children or people that might be a little sensitive to certain words.

Several people tried it. For some it worked, others it didn’t. I think it’s really about just how you ask Siri the question, because I had it work and then not work. Make sure you ask her to “define the word mother”, not for the “definition of mother”.

Here is how it worked on my phone…

Thanks Siri! I’ve heard enough.

I’ve always been the kind of person who notices the things other people overlook — strange roadside attractions, forgotten pieces of history, unusual places, odd trends, and the little things in everyday life that make you stop and say, “Wait... when did that become normal?” That curiosity is really what this blog is all about. I’m especially drawn to the stories hiding in plain sight: a forgotten piece of Michigan history, a roadside attraction you’d never know was there, an old building with a story behind it, or some completely ordinary part of modern life that suddenly seems ridiculous when you think about it for more than five seconds. Some days you’ll find a fascinating history story here. Other days I may take you along on a road trip, dig into something weird from Michigan’s past, share an interesting discovery, or simply rant about something in modern life that makes absolutely no sense. I don’t pretend to have all the answers. I just enjoy asking the questions, digging around for the stories, and sharing the interesting things I find along the way. My goal is simple: Keep looking. Keep learning. And keep things interesting.
