I just realized National Signing Day for college football is coming up. Wasn't sure of the date so I started typing it into the address bar of my browser (Chrome). Of course it started to auto-fill "national signing day 2018" but it also showed "Wednesday, February 7, 2018" just below the auto-fill suggestion. Wuuuuuut?

Those things like Alexa and Google Home creep me the hell out. I don't know why anyone would want one of those things in their house.
I figured you would love it. It can control all of your appliances and your lights. That's one of the only reasons left that you get off the couch for. If you got one of those you would never have to get up.

When I'm in my house, I expect peace and quiet. I don't want some robot talking to me. It's weird.

Oh, and GFY.
 
My assumption is that my cell phone is constantly recording my physical location and everything I say. Not that that makes Alexa and Google Home any less creepy.
That's my assumption as well, but at least my phone does it all low key and stuff. It kind of just sits there and does all its voodoo shit in the background and in total silence, so I don't have to think about it.
