If you have one of these handy little gadgets in your home, you know that Alexa isn’t to be messed with.
She knows everything. She’s keeping an eye on you. And if you mess with her, there will be hell to pay because she also has a mind of her own.
Are you doubting Alexa’s intelligence?
These posts will convince you otherwise…
1. She got you.
Me: Alexa, when will computers become self-aware?
Alexa: When will YOU become self-aware?
M: *gazing out a window, crying* good one, Alexa

2. She’s a one-upper.

4. Time to work out.
Echo is so rude. I'm sitting here watching TV and eating crisps and she pipes up out of the blue saying "Here is a station you may like, Workout FM." 😲 #Alexa #alexafail

5. You pissed her off.
Alexa, play some party music.
Alexa, next song.
Alexa, next song.
Alexa, stop playing Daft Punk’s Robot Rock.
Alexa, shut down.
Alexa, what are you doing.
Alexa, put down the knife.
Alexa, please I have a family.

6. That is eerie.
To annoy my son, I said, "Alexa, play 'high pitch noise.'" She replied, "Should I add a station to your Pandora account for, 'he's got no soul?'" #AlexaFail #Alexa #AlexaKnowsWhatIsUp

7. She’s taking over.
Me: Alexa, turn on family room lights.
Alexa: Okay, playing "Livin' on a Prayer, lullaby version."#alexafail #robottakeover 😜— Lindsay McGregor (@LindsMcGregor) July 5, 2017
8. She can do that!
Just bought an “Alexa” to take with me on the road.
I asked her to argue with me and make a lot of noise while I’m sleeping so it feels like home.

9. Whatever you need.
Me: Alexa, make my kid get ready.
5: We don’t have an Alexa!
Me: *finds out Alexa in fact, does have a skill to make kids get ready*
Me: *buys an Alexa*

10. The perfect response.
Me, “Alexa, make all these people leave my house.”
Alexa, “Playing Nickelback.”

11. Can she do that, too?
Alexa, feed my kids.

Be careful how you treat your Alexa because you never know when she might turn on you…just like in a horror movie.
