Stop ****ing saying Alexa!

The man's an idiot. He's doing a feature on Amazon's Echo Dot, referred to as Alexa.

"There was a case in the US where someone on TV said 'Alexa, buy a rocking horse', and everyone's Alexa bought one."

And you've just ****ing done it now!

Well if you own an Alexa you clearly have too much money. So buying a rocking horse should not be an issue. :thumbsup:

What we need to do is get someone to say "Alexa, buy all of Brighton's kits" or "Send KZNSeagull all my money" on the telly, then it would be a useful tool.

Saw the ad, bloke is packing a case and waits until THAT point where he cannot shut the lid to ask 'Alexa, what is the weather in Ibiza?'. Well you knew it was going to be warm anyway, so why the jumpers? Use the feckin' internet like normal people ffs.

He is a first class kn0b

Another feature from earlier in the week:

In Saudi Arabia, they have banned women from driving.
Since women have less accidents in the UK, and are generally far better behaved drivers, he posed the question "should men be banned from driving in the UK?"

Seriously? That's the topic you're going to debate on BBC radio 2? FFS :facepalm:

I'm going to change my wake-word to cockwomble in his honour. Two problems dealt with in one stroke.

As soon as that topic was mentioned I avoided the tw@t's show (as I try to do most days).

He's like an audio mash up of The Mail, Express and Sun in one shit show.

I didn't realise he was that bad, but my view is changing.

As bad as the ginger tw@t on the breakfast show-both different but both tw@ts!

Radio 2 is only good for Pop Master during the daytime.

Jeremy Vine is one of those types that annoy me.
He is a very nice and likeable bloke.
But if you watch Eggheads, Strictly or election nights you will see that he is also a twerp.
Instantly likeable but comes over as as a prat.
Because of his niceness I find it difficult to dislike him.

My mate has his Alexa near his home phone.
When I get the answer machine I say "Alexa, play BBC six music, volume 10"
Apparently this can be heard whilst leaving the message thus Alexa came on volume 10 with 6 music.
The pet dog was at home alone, and wrecked the house!
