I turned Siri off a long time ago, because the dumb shite can't understand what I'm asking.

They log everything you tell Siri over there at Apple... when I get bored in traffic, I fire Siri up and start ragging all things Apple. its the little things...

siri actually works pretty good for me on simple commands involving the phone and also in answering simple questions...absolutlely wouldn't work well for dictating long text to or anything like that...

I like the functionality pretty well...

Quit doing that and talk to her in your normal voice.

I have a pretty decent accent, but she understands me. My wife tries to talk to Siri slow-ly and per-fect-ly like she is the reformed Eliza Doolittle, and Siri will screw it all up. I laugh at her, ask the same shite like a normal redneck, and get the answer.

For some reason the voice recognition texting feature seems to work better than the "ask SIRI questions" feature. Although it seems like it would use the same technology.

one of the main things that helps me is with phrasing of the questions and commands that you give...for instance, instead of:

"Siri, can you tell me what the weather will be like this afternoon and tonight in Baton rouge, la?"

say:

"Baton Rouge weather"
