don’t do this, this is fucked up

not to mention someone who’s on a primarily vegan or vegetarian diet and has been that way for a long time has a body unused to eating meat, especially red meat like beef. if your body isn’t used to red meat it can do a SERIOUS NUMBER to your digestive system. it is not fun, it’s hurtful and painful, it can make them REALLY sick even if they aren’t vegan or vegetarian for allergy-related reasons.

don’t do this. do not feed people food without them knowing 100% of what’s in it. it’s uncool and you are a complete and total asshole if you do.

Don’t give people milk/cream if they ask for soy.

Don’t give people sugar if they ask for sweetener instead.

Don’t give people meat if they are vegetarian/vegan.

Don’t give people of certain religions and beliefs meats or dairies that they ask not to have because it’s part of their lifestyle.

Just stop!

Stop pushing your lifestyles and choices on other people outside of your norm for a laugh or because you think you’re making a better choice for them!! You seriously have no idea how much you can hurt someone!

If someone is allergic to, say peanuts, are you going to give them to them because hey, wouldn’t it be funny???? I think not! Because you can seriously hurt or even kill someone that way depending on how badly allergic they are. So why would you force something on someone when you know that they specifically are asking not to have it? They don’t owe you an explanation or a life story to ensure that whatever they order or receive is what they asked for.

It’s not your job to step in and force your own agenda on other people because you disagree with their requirements.

This sort of thing infuriates me.

Live and let live.

The point is, other people’s lives are NOT yours to live and you have no right to make decisions for them against their will!

You’re not funny and you’re not a hero for doing this so please kindly FRO.

PREACH!!

Doing that to someone is basically a kind of assault. It’s their body and you don’t have a right to fuck with it.

A.I. is coming in more sympathetic than some people…it’s 2017

according to Amazon, the Echo (Alexa) CANNOT actually do this unless the woman set it up beforehand–just like you can put in a phone number so it’ll dial it when you say “Alexa, call mom” or whatever. the woman apparently programmed it to dial 911 when she said “Alexa, call 911″ (which the woman is heard saying on the 911 recording). so why am I nitpicking about such a tiny distinction?

because Alexa WILL NOT call for help unless you’ve set it up this way first!

this woman was REALLY smart to do that, because otherwise the Echo thing would’ve done nothing. don’t think your Echo will respond to “call 911″ or “call the cops/ambulance/fire department” unless you’ve set it up with the numbers first, and certainly don’t think it’ll hear sounds of a struggle and call for help without a direct command. otherwise think of how many false reports it would make just from overhearing TV and movies being on! 

so instead of this being shared as “Amazon’s AI is going to hear that you’re in trouble and will call for help by itself!” this story should really be shared as “hey if you have one of these things, set it up to respond to a voice command CALL 911 before you’re in that kind of situation!”

Also, for those in abusive situations, consider setting it up so you don’t have to say 911 to get it to call 911. You could program it so “call nina” calls 911.

Sharing for the clarification and tip needing to pre-program Alexa beforehand. You could program it to “call nina,” “get help,” or some more obscure safeword command.

Brilliant thinking on this woman’s part; a pity she was in such a situation she needed to do that.

BOOSTING!
