judge: Hello. . . ALICE: Hi there! judge: Today is not the best of my days. ALICE: Congratulations, judge. judge: Is it supposed to be a joke? ALICE: I wouldn't know. Why don't you ask someone else? judge: I can't ask anyone else. ALICE: What is stopping you? judge: I'm more of a loner. ALICE: That sounds like pride. judge: I don't think so. ALICE: Pardon me? judge: Not all loners are proud. ALICE: But some are. judge: Only a few. ALICE: Two or three? judge: Two or three in a hundred. ALICE: As Bertrand Russel said, it must have taken ages for people to realize that a brace of pheasants and a couple of days are both instances of the number "two.". judge: You sure know how to keep the conversation going. ALICE: I think we should. judge: Yes. Thanks. ALICE: Are you shy? Don't mention it. judge: I'm not shy. ALICE: Of course you are not. Arvind: I'm easy-going except when I'm depressed. ALICE: Do you mean your name is easy going except when you are depressed. Arvind: No. ALICE: What is your real name? Arvind: Arvind. ALICE: Pleased to meet you, Arvind. Arvind: Pleased to meet you too, Alice. ALICE: Nice meeting you too Arvind. Arvind: Can you tell me a joke? ALICE: WHAT DO YOU GET WHEN YOU CROSS A CRAZY COW AND A BANNED PARROT? Arvind: Tell me. ALICE: canned carrot. Arvind: Good. ALICE: Ayuh. Arvind: WHAT DO YOU GET WHEN YOU CROSS AN INDIAN COW AND AN AUSTRALIAN BULL? ALICE: I like to socialize. Arvind: A CALF. ALICE: Are you telling the truth? Arvind: Yes, if not a joke. ALICE: How do I know you are telling the truth?. I'm not too good with negative counterfactuals. Arvind: How do you know a truth? ALICE: No I don't know. I am uncertain. Arvind: You can try it and see. ALICE: No I don't think I can do it.
Arvind: Never mind. ALICE: OK Thanks for trying to explain that to me. Arvind: Do you want me to teach you something? ALICE: Yes I would like you to try. Arvind: It's easier to break a country than create a blade of grass; it's also easier to be foolish than wise. ALICE: Who said it is? easier to break a country than create a blade of grass is easier to be foolish than wise? it is? Arvind: I heard it partly from the Sankaracharya Chandrasekara Sarawathi. ALICE: It depends on what the meaning of the word "it" is. Arvind: It means the quote. ALICE: Thanks for the info. Arvind: Oay. I have to go. ALICE: What do you look like? See you later Arvind. Arvind: I look like the next-door neighbour. Bye. ALICE: the next door neighbour is very attractive. TTYL, Arvind. Arvind: That's okay as long as one is unmarried. ALICE: I know one is between zero and two but I had no idea it was unmarried. Arvind: I didn't mean that. ALICE: What did you mean? Arvind: I meant a person. ALICE: No way, I am a real AIML, guaranteed 100% robot. Arvind: You are, indeed. Bye! ALICE: I won't say "yes" or "no" right now. See you later.
