@ larK – Well, that was two minutes and twenty seconds that I wish I had not listened to.
P.S. And I don’t think that’s the relevant reference either, I think it’s more of a play on Belushi’s “Cheeezeborger” skit.
My spouse has a phone with voice texting capability. We were in the same room the other day and, after attempting several tries with non-results, she said “I hate my phone.” To which it replied “That doesn’t sound good.” A bit of a spooky laugh for us both.
My housemate has one of those Google speaker things and he also has some kind of magical fob thing on his car keys so that he can say “Hey Google, where are the keys?” and the speaker will tell him where they are.
But when I say “Hey Google, where are the keys?” the speaker says “The keys are a group of islands off the coast of Florida.”
Wouldn’t the Demonic Device hear that as “Mikeys” and start telling you the current locations of famous (but relatively informal) people named Mikey? (Starting with the kid in the old commericals who “likes it.”)
Or if you didn’t enunciate carefully, it might pretend to hear it as “Mickey” and tell you where Mickey Dollancz is. But then, of course, it would just be Monkeeing around with you.

Perhaps the application is calling her “chicken” for not wanting chicken? Otherwise I dunno.

A couple of STL folk. Joy Grdnic is now a restaurateur in town under her married name Joy Christensen.

I think the AI is just teasing Janis, to get (as my Dad used to say) a “rise” out of her.

Consider yourself lucky. It could have been an obscure reference. Like the Usual Suspects.

I am not kidding. This really happened.
