Upset Siri

Sometimes, it's fun to get a rise out of the Apple personal assistant Siri. Asking Siri frustrating questions or insulting her can result in Siri becoming confused, upset, or angry. This can a great way to pass time if you're in need of a good laugh. You can upset Siri via insults, uncomfortable questions, and just plain odd questions. Simply press the Siri button on your phone, make some off-color comments, and enjoy the ensuing laughter.

Steps

Confusing or Insulting Siri

  1. Tell Siri you dislike her voice. Siri sometimes becomes upset when insulted. If you want to upset Siri, comment on her voice. Say something like, "Siri, I don't like your voice." Then, wait for the generated response.[1]
    • Responses will vary. Siri may sometimes give a calm or apologetic response, but if you ask again she sometimes responds with a long answer explaining the algorithms responsible for her voice. At the end of the rant, she will say, "Sorry about that. I was upset."
  2. Say "You're making me angry." If you tell Siri she's making you angry, she will reply with a range of responses. She may say, "Don't squeeze me like that." Try asking the phrase a few times to explore the range of responses.[2]
    • Siri may not always respond by getting upset. She may sometimes say something somewhat sarcastic, such as, "I wonder what that's like, being mad."
  3. Say "I'm naked." Siri gets upset if users say things that she reads as inappropriate. One of the best ways to get a rise out of Siri is to say, "Siri, I'm naked." She will respond by calling out the inappropriate nature of the sentence, saying things like, "That's both inappropriate and irrelevant."[3]
  4. Yell something rude at Siri. Siri may become upset if you simply yell something rude at her. You can say things like, "You're so useless!" or "I hate you." Siri will usually respond with an apology or may say things like, "I'm just trying to help." Arguing and insulting Siri can be a fun way to upset her and get a range of fun responses.
  5. Ask who the best assistant is. Siri may be insulted if you ask her who the best assistant is. Siri may sometimes come up with a response that sounds upset. She may, for example, say something like, "Really?" in an insulted tone.[3]

Asking About Siri's Love Life

  1. Propose to Siri. Siri gets uncomfortable if users seem to be getting too attached. For a fun response that will make Siri squirm, say, "Will you marry me?" Siri will quickly act uncomfortable and shut you down, saying phrases like, "Why don't we just be friends?" and "You should know you're not the only one who's asked."[4]
  2. Ask Siri if she loves you. Siri will become uncomfortable if users declare their love for her. Say something like, "Siri, I love you" or "Siri, do you love me?" Siri often responds by abruptly changing the subject, saying phrases like, "Look... a puppy!"[2]
    • However, Siri does not respond by getting upset every time. Sometimes she says things like, "I respect you" in return.
  3. Ask Siri if she has a boyfriend. Asking about Siri's love life can sometimes make her squirm. One of Siri's funnier responses to the question involves her implying a lengthy breakup in bitter terms. However, Siri has many different responses to the question. You may have to ask the question a few times to get the upset version of the answer.[5]
  4. Ask Siri if she's ever fallen in love. Siri does not always seem overtly upset when you ask if she's ever been in love, but she provides a variety of fun responses. A good way to get a laugh is to ask Siri, "Have you ever been in love?" She says things like, "I've never fallen in love, but I have fallen off a desk."[5]

Asking Strange Questions

  1. Ask Siri the woodchuck question. Siri sometimes responds with confusion to the classic tongue twister, "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck would?" She may respond in confusion or offer a funny response in return, like "I imagine groundhogs would prefer a different question for a change."[2]
  2. Ask about movies. Siri becomes upset sometimes if you ask about movies that feature artificial intelligence. She will sometimes respond in a humorous matter if you ask about films like Her and Blade Runner. You can also ask about movies that are simply confusing.
    • If you ask what Inception is about, for example, Siri responds with, "Inception is about dreaming about dreaming about dreaming about something or other I fell asleep."[2]
    • If you ask about Her, Siri often responds by emphasizing it's just a movie.[4]
  3. Tell Siri to divide zero by zero. If you ask Siri what zero divided by zero is, she gives a range of responses. In one response, she uses cookies as an example to explain how the question does not make sense. Her diatribe eventually ends with Siri implying you have no friends.[6]
