Twitter Thinks Apple's HomePod Looks Like A Roll Of Toilet Paper

Users also compared it to a "electric marshmallow."
By 

Lifestyle Editor, HuffPost

Yesterday Apple unveiled HomePod, a home speaker system that plays music and takes commands. The cylindrical, motor-driven device comes in white and space gray and will retail for $349 when it hits stores in December.

But Twitter isn’t convinced the invention is entirely original.

Not gonna lie, we see the resemblance too. 

Other skeptics used this occasion to poke fun at the proliferation of Apple-ness in our everyday lives. 

Siri-ously, they have a point.
