Not sure if I just haven’t noticed the standard disclaimer before or if it’s a new “feature” 😬

Thanks for sharing this right before bed… dickhead.

Rest easy friend, the roach in question is safety ensconced under the lid of my ashtray. I’m sure it will be fine, unless they can lift hundreds of times their own body weight or something crazy like that 😅

Better call my local roach doctor then…

I think they’re called insectoligists, hold on, I’ll ask Siri…

And Siri will immediately call the local exterminator…

It’s strange they’d add a disclaimer here instead of just adding it to a license agreement you have to agree to. I mean you’d need additional disclaimers for all sorts of stuff like “For any legal advice, consult a lawyer.” Etc etc.

I agree, that’s what I was trying to get at but I didn’t want to detract from the garish humor. I can’t quite tell what triggers it either; I tried a few random (human) anatomy facts, bug related questions… even some answers it pulled from drugs.com didn’t have it.

Bugs me (no pun intended)… though I do appreciate the attempt at subtlety.

I got something similar, but about talking with a physician before taking a drug.

Slightly more solid advice ;-)

Probably more for when people inevitably start finding mistakes and sharing it online. Apple can then just point to the obvious disclaimer.
