Siri will have been in our lives for four whole years come this October 4th. Amazing to think that Apple’s personal assistant has been answering your stupid questions for that long. And one would think that every stupid question that evokes a quirky answer has been done and written about, but alas, there is one mathematical query that has everyone talking.
In the wee hours of Tuesday morning, Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul instructed his Twitter followers to ask Siri “What is zero divided by zero?”
Ask Siri "what is zero divided by zero?" RIGHT. NOW.

When asked, Siri hits back hard with this rather disparaging reply:
“Imagine that you have zero cookies and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesn’t make sense. And Cookie Monster is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends.”
There was a whirlwind of entertaining responses by people who were amused and upset by the iOS language interface.

That hurts Siri. You really cut to the core of me. I hope you’re happy with yourself.
