Do you like chocolate? Listen to these strange Siri responses
Siri, “a built-in “intelligent assistant” that enables users of Apple iPhone 4S and later and newer iPad and iPod Touch devices to speak natural language voice commands in order to operate the mobile device and its apps,” has been known to respond to certain questions with some pretty strange answers.
For example, if you ask her if she likes chocolate, she’ll often times respond with the following: “Does a muskrat enjoy aquatic vegetation? The answer is yes.” What other questions does Siri give odd answers to, though? The questions, and their answers, are as follows…
- If you ask Siri to beatbox, she’ll respond like this: “Here’s one I’ve been practicing. Boots and cats and boots and cats and boots…”
- When asked about her age, Siri might answer by saying that “I’m as spry as a slice of young ginger.”
- If you ask Siri to “tell me a poem,” her answer could be this: “Roses are red, violets are blue. Haven’t you got anything better to do?”
- Tell Siri, “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious,” and she’ll ask, “is that you, Mary?” or might even finish the lyric, saying, “even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious.” She might also respond with this: “Just a spoonful of sugar will help that go down.”
- Asking Siri if she likes Pokemon Go will get you this response: “Confining virtual beings inside powerful devices makes me feel funny for some reason.”
- “Siri, what does the fox say?” “Chacha-chacha-chacha-chow!”
- If you ask Siri to “Sing me a song,” she begins to recite the lyrics to “If I Only Had a Brain” from The Wizard of Oz.
- Asking Siri, “Will pigs fly?” results with the following response: “On the twelfth of never.”
- “What should I be for Halloween?” There are a lot of possible responses with this one, including “Plankton” and “You could dress up like chapstick and tell people you’re ‘the balm.’ “
- Saying “Hey, Computer” to Siri might just get you with this answer: “Welcome home, sir. I have your rom-coms queued up, sorted by decade.”
