If I had an Amazon Echo or a Google Home, I just know for a fact that I would ask it ridiculous questions. In the commercials, there is always a family using Alexa/Google Home to come closer as a family, but we all know that's not exactly how it would go.

I'd definitely ask it things I search on Google on a daily basis and random questions that pop into my head while I'm in the shower or laying around watching Netflix. I know I'm not the only one. Here are some questions I'd probably ask my Alexa/Google Home if I had one:

1. "Play that song by that Scottish band that goes da da da da da da da da. You know what I'm talking about,"

I doubt she'd catch that I was asking to listen to 500 Miles, but it's worth a shot.

2. "Can cats eat cucumbers?"

I'm pretty sure I'd ask a million variations of this question in my time of owning an Alexa/Google Home because my cats always try to eat my food.

3. "How long do green beans last?"

This question would definitely come while I was looking through my fridge.

4. "How many oz are in a shot glass?"

But seriously, why do alcohol recipes come by ounces or any other unit than "a shot"? Who takes the time to measure out 1.4 oz of Blue Curacao for their margarita? Serial killers.

5. "What does the year on someone's Facebook profile mean?"

Has anyone noticed that? Can anyone answer this?

6. "Why do cats wiggle their butts before they jump?"

This question would probably come from my boyfriend who thinks cats are a mystery.

7. "What should I make for dinner?"

I hate when I can't decide what I have a taste for. It's better if someone else tells me what to make sometimes. I'd probably follow that up with: "How do I substitute for minced garlic?"

8. "Tell me a joke."

9. "What's the weather going to be today?"

Okay, but this one is actually relevant and would help while getting ready in the morning.

10. "When will my package be here?"

I should have UPS tracking bookmarked on my laptop because I swear I always have some kind of package being shipped.

11. "Should I go out tonight?"

Sometimes you need some convincing and/or reassurance that you've made the right choice (to stay in of course).

12. "Are we friends?"

Don't they get to know you and collect data on you? They have to know you best, right?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
