    you haven’t thought this through. what if they add a “daddy” to the end of everything they say?

    turning off 3 lights daddy

    your payment has been processed daddy

    three hours ago, central intelligence discovered that, sometime between 0230 and 0415 this morning, a rogue russian sleeper cell, acting in the president’s secret service, was activated and instructed to abduct the commander-in-chief. he was successful, and the president is missing. for the last 3 hours, we’ve been searching, and coming up with nothing. that is, until roughly 5 minutes ago, when a gps unit hidden in his suitcase began transmitting. we have pinpointed the location of the suitcase. it appears to be coming from a decommissioned missile silo in the nevada desert, located 150 miles west of the hoover dam. we know not whether the president is still with the suitcase, but he is no longer our priority. the suitcase, which is a terminal that offers it’s user complete access to every active nuclear warhead in the country, is our primary concern. as you can imagine, the president’s life is inconsequential and you will waste no time or energy to secure him. your mission is to infiltrate the decommissioned silo and retrieve the suitcase terminal. all rules of engagement are suspended, any loss of life south of a nuclear holocaust is authorized, civilian or otherwise. the case must be retrieved at all costs. we’re counting on you. daddy.

    Upvoted but (kindly) the exact opposite; I will always thank an automated voice.

    I hope they remember me fondly in the Robot Wars….

    I also really hate the “personalised conversation” thing that they do, things like “thanks, we’re working on that” etc. Who the fuck is “we” here?
