I study architecture at a graduate level, it can be a very stressful day to day and physically demanding as most grad students can tell you. I’ve found Siri, for all its faults, to be useful for scheduling things, making calls and texts and just asking quick questions while my hands are busy building models, drafting plans, or writing my thesis. For fun I thought to set my name to a custom name, telling Siri to call me “Master Architect Zee,” as I could use the confidence boost and a reminder of my goal, albeit very vane. It was like having my own little Jarvis pepping me up!

Well fast forward, we are having a grad class meeting in the studio. Nothing unusual just prepping for the next assignment. If I remember I think the teacher asked if someone could convert a dimension from meters to feet, and being the dork I am said “let me as Siri” and pulled out my phone. Well you can see where this situation was going and halfway through siri starting it’s response, I figured out what was about to happen. Well not wanting to embarrass myself in front of my peers and be called “Master Architect” I of course cut the response off midway, however I did not account for the much worst outcome of Siri getting cut off and calling me just “Master”. Now I have about 13 people in my class who think I’ve set my phone to call me Master, all while I’m mentally cringing bc people already know I watch anime so now I’m probably the weird anime guy, all the while I’m babbling trying to explain myself.

TL:DR set Siri to call me “Master architect Zee”, forgot, asked siri something on speaker in front of my class, remembered what I did, overcorrected and cut my phone off right after it called me “Master”.
