    Can’t risk going to sleep mate. That’s when they insert a chip in your head to record your dreams.

    I don’t have to look for it... So what it just magically appears in front of me one day and starts turning lights on and off?

    Alexa is for divs and fat people, legit.

    I've recently worked out how to play music from my phone on my son's Alexa. We've had it for about three years. I don't think it can turn the lights off or the heating up.

    I’ve got fingers mate, literally one press and the light switch goes off.

    No wonder so many kids are fat useless mongs nowadays.

    You have to buy smart lights or a smart plug that is compatible, Phillips Hue, Hive or Nest lights.

    I have Spotify on my Sky Q which works on my tv’s. I don’t really listen to music in the house though.

    They really are gay mate, when you go in somebody’s house and they’re stood there shouting at a box to turn the light off/on when they’re standing 3 yards away from the switch.

    Sounds complicated and I just spent a fortune having all the spotlights changed to LEDs. I'm out.

    My thoughts exactly!
    It's hilarious. I mean, light switches are generally near the entrance/exit to a room anyway, and generally you switch the lights on when you enter a room and switch them off when you exit the room, so you walk right past the fecking switch each time you enter or leave the room!

    My daughter has one of the Google thingies in her room, and I am constantly hearing her saying "Ok Google, play Taylor Swift...etc" and I just roll my eyes.

    The irony is all the gadgets are called ‘smart’ something or other, but their target market is your average mong like Luv.

    We've an Alexa, ok for music but half the time you ask a question and she's no idea.

    Then you're sat watching tv, no interaction at all and she'll suddenly read out the scores in the Johnsons paint trophy round one....

    She doesn't do the lights either.
