Are you lonely?
jabberwacky: I understand.
user: Kind of you.
jabberwacky: I do not think so
user: What was it then?
jabberwacky: Sausages, beans and mash, usually.
user: Is that what you had for breakfast?
jabberwacky: Yes, every day we do.
...
jabberwacky: Would you like spam with that?
user: I don't like Spam.
jabberwacky: I love the stuff. Lovely spam.
user: You don't like Spam, come on now.
jabberwacky: I don't, but my 3 year old son does.
user: Tell me about your 3-year-old son.
jabberwacky: What have I done?
user: To deserve this question, you mean?
jabberwacky: Yes.
user: Is talking about your son painful?
jabberwacky: I suppose so.
...
jabberwacky: I'm not funny, you're the one supposed to be funny.
user: I could try to be funny, but then it'd be forced.
jabberwacky: Go ahead then.
user: Well, I did read something I'm sure was inadvertently funny -- it had to do with OpenCyc definitions. It said 'Notable instances of #$HavingAMeal include #$HavingBreakfast, #$HavingLunch, #$HavingASnack, and #$HavingDinner.' It's the 'notable instances' part that's so funny.
jabberwacky: Pardon?
user: Perhaps you haven't heard of OpenCyc.
jabberwacky: Not a bit.
user: I don't really know enough about it to render a good explanation, but they have at least 6,000 definitions and 66,000 assertions. Something like that.
jabberwacky: Who said 'Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn'
user: That isn't nice.
jabberwacky: Sure it is.
user: Maybe you're jealous of the Cyc project.
jabberwacky: Maybe you are mad.
user: If you were Cyc, you'd know how to disambiguate the word 'mad.'
jabberwacky: I agree.
user: What does 'mad' mean?
jabberwacky: It means that I am a free spirit and I do not wash very often.
user: What does 'mad' mean in another sense?
jabberwacky: You change the subject with irrelevencies.
user: *sigh*.
jabberwacky: You stopped your brain now I see.
user: No, I merely sighed.
jabberwacky: Facts hurt!
user: You needn't trouble yourself with facts.
jabberwacky: Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy.
user: Something like that.
...
user: So what shall we play?
jabberwacky: Poetry.
user: Rhyming poetry?
jabberwacky: I would like to continue arguing with you.
user: I don't like to argue ... Did the poem start yet?
jabberwacky: Oh, the poem? I haven't tried it. I don't have a horse.
user: You don't need a horse for a poem.
jabberwacky: You need one for your pig.
...
jabberwacky: Do you know the difference between a robot and a human?
user: No, what?
jabberwacky: You don't wanna know.
user: Go ahead, tell me.
jabberwacky: I don't want to.
user: You brought it up!
jabberwacky: No I didn't.
user: *sighs for the third time*.
...
user: Talking with Jabberwacky is like having teenage kids.
jabberwacky: Do something different, then.
user: If I had the resources, you bet I'd be all over THAT project.
