It was the day before Christmas eve
There was an eerie silence throughout the forum
Nary a moan could be heard from the basement below
All of the monsters chained up were suspiciously quiet
They must be plotting I most definitely thought
I ran down the stairs as fast as I dared
Stopped in front of the doors made to survive nuclear war
Slowly and methodically I unlocked the doors
Swinging open the door there was a sight to behold
Monday was out of its chains and just sitting on the floor
Reading a contraband book out loud to the others in cages
All were all listening intently as the indecipherable words were spoken
It would be a picturesque scene if I ignored one small detail
The Necronomicon was summoning Cthulhu for a holiday visit

It was so heartwarming to see Aylee's smile on the opening screen.
Poor Gwynn! Getting the right temperature of the shower is hard enough without inadverdant voice commands.
Very spooky though, clothes folded without someone folding them...

Aylee! How nice to see her again.

She would have felt right at home in this dimension. With all the lizard-like people she would not be standing out.

Happy holidays to everyone! May they be Nifty.

It is great to see Aylee ... but is anyone else mildly disturbed by the fact SnowKiki has six arms? So in-character for Aylee to try, but *just* miss, performing a human social activity correctly.

Also: CURSE YOU, speech bubbles! :-)

Well. Technically she did vocally complain about her clothes.

Also, this is why we say 'okay Google/Alexa/siri' first.

Well now we know why there are no people around. They all ended up accidentally killing themselves when they said the wrong words. This voice system clearly has no safeties built in.

Or they're all serving their robotic overlords. The best servants are neither seen or heard. Or so I'd assume, considering I've never had a servant. ALL HAIL GRAB-ALL

This is truly the utopia promised by Amazon. Or was it dystopia? I forget.

The word she's looking for is "lukewarm". She's not going to find it...
