People assign 0 importance to what I say and ignore it....
Dad has phone with speech recognition software: talk to text. It doesn't fucking work well. The phone "mishears."
He, like many old people, thinks he is educating or informing me of things, they aren't, period. He keeps reading the fucking text as if he is informing me of something being wrong rather than shutting up to hear the answer. As he's reading, the phone is hearing his speech and converting it into more misheard and misspelled text....
HE is the problem and is perpetuating the feedback loop of the glitch. More words from his mouth = more misheard text = more words from his mouth....
I keep trying to get him to be quiet because his voice is LITERALLY the problem, but he talks right over me and assigns my words 0 importance, and he keeps right on doing stupid shit and talking right over me with a bewildered, stupid look on his face. He can't get over the fact that we have not said those words, and he can't comprehend the machine (phone) is making a mistake. It's like watching a caveman try to figure out fire, because he can't comprehend the logical loop he's stuck in, and he won't shut the hell up so I can get 5 words out to tell him. In his mind, his words = important, and everyone else's = not important at all, so he keeps right on talking....
Finally, I grab his god damn phone right out of his (now more angered) hands, and speak into it to show him what's going on, despite his bewildered questions of where this is coming from an lies that he "did stop talking." His god damn bruised ego.... Low and behold when I speak slowly and clearly, some of the words come out.
God damn it, the old fart just won't comprehend I know what the fuck is going on and he doesn't, and its insulting. If he could've given me a solid 10 seconds of him shutting up, the whole thing would've been over with rather than 4 minutes of badly written sketch material.
