Show HN: Start a Text with 'Like "'

This is such a ridiculous hack. A friend with an iphone sent a text to my Android reading:

Like: "I'm thinking of a number"

Google's Messages app interpreted this as:

to "I'm thinking of a number"

I was like, who are you responding to?!

It took a minute of total miscommunication to realize that Messages must be just using the first six characters to decide if something is a "like" command
