Jokes were cracked about both the length and amount of his contract and his propensity to get injured, like both were some personal flaw. Sure, Garth Snow and Charles Wang […]

Siri is at it again. If you recall, Siri previously called Daniel Alfredsson "god" and referred to the Carolina Hurricanes when asked about Hurricane Sandy. Now Siri has some pretty fun answers when you ask about the universe. Specifically, when asked "How old is the universe?" or something along those lines, Siri responds with, "According […]
