Mine will sometimes / often go off when I say "ok, cool". It's simultaneously amusing and annoying.

"Cocaine poodle"

I was really hoping you were joking about that, but I can indeed get Google Assistant to pop up reliably by saying "cocaine poodle".

Well that's just great. How am I supposed to talk about my cocaine poodle now

I mean, that's an ambiguous term to begin with, and you'd confuse even humans with it.

Like, are you referring to a sculpture made of cocaine in the image of a poodle, or are you talking about a poodle train in the ways of a St. Bernard rescue dog, capable of relaying quantities of said substance, or perhaps something else entirely?

I was referring to the poodle I snort my cocaine off the back of. You guys are crazy.

I like how you went with the at Bernard analogy rather than day a traditional police drug dog.

[Google plays David Bowie, Klaus Nomi, and Joey Arias performing TVC15 on SNL]

https://youtu.be/ogUJ7JwkLNs?t=3m7s

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TVC_15

>The track was inspired by an episode in which Iggy Pop, during a drug-fueled period at Bowie’s LA home, hallucinated and believed the television set was swallowing his girlfriend. Bowie developed a story of a holographic television, TVC 15. In the song, the narrator's girlfriend crawls into the television and afterwards, the narrator desires to crawl in himself to find her.

Haha nice, I've used "Okay poodle" a lot before.

I like this a lot! It seems to work reliably for me, and is a lot easier to say than "ok google". Thanks :)
