someone changes its programming… lol
you had fun with the intonation of the line, didn’t you?

Nice job staying in the present tense there and a funny little idea for a story. Feels like it’s presaging our eventual takeover by artificial intelligence.

I actually had another idea for a story, ElshaHawk. and then TextMason let me know he’d prefer the tone not changed, and I think that kicked my imagination into overdrive…LOL.

And if you are reading this, TextMason, the first sentence’s tone remained the same, buddy…

:O)

I like the rantlike Luddite tone here. (I have to put my own anti-Luddite away for a while, though.) But I have a few comments on the flow.

The style is mostly conversational – but it seems hiccupy early. “The sign says it is a talking…” and “surprise responses that are random when you say the sentence…” feel clunky to speak out loud. Perhaps “The sign says it’s a talking” and “random responses when you say” might feel better as dialogue. And the later “Maybe it is my volume of speaking then…” might flow smoother (and leave more room in a ficly) as “Maybe it’s my speaking volume, then…”

(Oh, and the “it’s” in front of “incredibly” is possessive, so that one doesn’t get an apostrophe.)

And I think you might be able to goose up the threat rating of the closer without changing the tone from comic to sci-fi. Something like “Your car is being towed, insolent dog.” But that’s a very iffy note.

The tone is really the showpiece here – very human in manner. I’d love to see your next piece.

Thank you TextMason. Constuctive criticism like that is why I like to write here.

And that “it’s”…grrrr…I pride myself in not making silly mistakes like that…ah well, sometimes I just realise I’m human…LOL.

I try hard to write in many different ways, but I seem to be most suited to writing in a human manner, especially in conversational pieces…

…Perhaps it’ll respond properly if you leave out the comma? :D

i.e.: “You know you talk too much.”

Oh, LOL.
I just read the challenge. :P
