I haven't yet but I think I will, partly because I've always been intrigued by lisps. Also, I hope they never change their logo, which looks a lot like my late mother did when she was young. She was also named Janet.

That's a nice coincidence :)

Seems the inspiration for the name comes from The Good Place, and the logo seems different enough that they won't sue the owner of the project, as the face in the logo is not that similar to Janet from the TV show.
