Why you should ask Siri to divide zero by zero

Apple's digital assistant Siri is good for many things: getting directions, checking sports scores and dictating messages. It's also apparently great at shaming you for basic division questions.

A man uses Siri on the iPhone 4S at an Apple store in London.

If you own an iPhone, pull up Siri and ask, "What is zero divided by zero?" For those readers without access to Siri, here's her response:

"Imagine that you have zero cookies and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesn't make sense. And Cookie Monster is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends."

The interesting answer was unearthed by Breaking Bad actor Aaron Paul through a Twitter message sent early Tuesday.

Now we really want cookies. And friends.
