DS just innocently asked her as neither of knew whether it was today or tomorrow......I wasn't expecting the reply

Disclaimer .... if you've got little ones who are easily spooked maybe listen to it yourself beforehand

Ooh Alexa has a dark side!

I just tried the welsh one hundred one with my teenager in the room....oops. Not one for with children around Blush He was amused though Grin

Just tried it on DD's alexa, I like it.

DS's Google is boring, it never does anything.

mnahmnah · 30/10/2020 20:38

I can recommend asking Alexa ‘who are you?’

pyxies · 30/10/2020 20:38

Sorry @Bettina500, I should have said not when kids are around.

Brilliant Halloween Grin

@megletthesecond

Assuming your DD is young enough, Don’t ask Google home if Father Christmas is real - it gives the Wikipedia, factual answer!! Alexa is more fun

We do Alexa quizzes in bed every night.
Pointless
Voice of the day
Question of the day
Jeopardy
and beat the intro.
It’s brilliant.
We’re half way through an Alexa escape room too.

WhenPushComesToShove · 30/10/2020 20:49

OMG, Alexa saying 100, 100, 100 in Welsh. Warning: make sure no little ears are listening. Crying here 😂😂😂

@MummyMummy01

Brilliant. have you tried telling alexa you love her
I just did this! 😂
megletthesecond · 30/10/2020 20:50

@mnahmnah luckily mine are old enough for it to not be a problem. The Google is proper dull tbh. Total fun bypass.

pyxies · 30/10/2020 20:50

Say Alexa Fart

Bitbusyattheminute · 30/10/2020 20:51

Ah, the Welsh one isn't funny if you're a 'u' pronouncer instead of an 'a' pronouncer. Didn't sound rude to my ears!

Toddlerteaplease · 30/10/2020 20:52

Tried it with Siri. He just said it's tomorrow.

Bitbusyattheminute · 30/10/2020 20:52

complete she says she can't do it, but adds 'very naayce' after it. Dh keeps trying to make very do it.

PeonyandDahlia · 30/10/2020 20:55
