Aside from the oddly placed semi colon, that basically sums up my views on office assistants. A distracting thing that grins inanely (paperclip) at you from the corner of the screen, and makes stupid noises, occasionally offering 'helpful' remarks such as "it looks like you're writing a letter", which you probably already knew, or else offering to irreversibly re-format your document, rendering it illegible if you press something. :x
And on the rare occasion that you do actually want assistance, what do you get? "I don't know what you mean? Please rephrase your question." and, when you angrily reply "please sod off", it decides to explain how to print your document. :x
Hmm... got a bit carried away there - didn't realise they annoyed me this much, but this explains why I'm not going to vote for a favourite. That and none of them will work on my computer except the paperclip, who surely ranks alongside the crazy frog/duck on the irritation stakes!
