"Hence the 'about'."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 2:42 pm

"You are stretching the meaning of the word to questionable length."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 2:56 pm

"That's humor for you."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:19 pm

"Humor is hard." she complains.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:25 pm

"And it's entirely subjective."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:29 pm

"That's stupid." she frowns.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:30 pm

"That doesn't change the fact that it is true."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:39 pm

"I will add it to the list of things that are part of subjective reality."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:40 pm

"Try to learn it. And small talk. I think it will help."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:40 pm

"Small talk is pointless."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:43 pm

"Not true at all! It can help diffuse awkward moments."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 4:24 pm

"So small talk indicates an awkward situation?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 7:04 pm

"Not entirely, but the silence it replaces could be considered awkward, especially if the parties aren't very close yet."

"A very inefficient method. But I have already learned that human protocols for greetings and familiarization are very convoluted and strange."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 8:06 pm

"Don't people make up weird and strange ways to program computers all the time?"

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 8:26 pm

"Yes. Humans are often weird and strange in a multitude of ways."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 8:27 pm

"And yet I tried to write a computer program of pac-man once, and it ate through the maze."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 8:54 pm

"Like I said, humans are often weird and strange."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 9:46 pm

"No, no, that was the computer's fault."

by **ASHLIE** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 10:58 pm

"I seriously doubt that."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 11:09 pm

"I was pretty clear that it was Pac-Man. Pac-Man doesn't eat the maze."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 12:07 am

"You don't really understand how computers work, do you?"

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 1:07 am

"You hit the power button, and then it goes."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:03 am

"That means no."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:05 am

"I know enough to use one!"

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:20 am

"That means double-plus no."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 12:57 pm

"I'm really good at computers."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 1:04 pm

"You made Pacman eat the walls."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:14 pm

"Hey, he did that, not me."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:27 pm

"You're really bad at computers. You can believe me, because I'm an expert and I've never made anybody eat the walls."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:29 pm

"Nuh-uh. It was a wall! Not my fault pac-man's dumb."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:32 pm

"You programmed it, so if it was dumb it was because you programmed it badly."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:33 pm

"Nuh-uh."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:37 pm

"A compelling argument."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:45 pm

"I thought so."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:49 pm

"I apologize, I should have made the use of sarcasm more clear."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:51 pm

"I noted the sarcasm, and chose to ignore it."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:27 pm

"Do you want me to show you how to tell Pacman not to eat walls?"

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 4:44 pm

"If you can reason with that drug-addicted junkie, sure."

by **ASHLIE** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 5:23 pm

"It's program is not nearly sophisticated enough to display behavior comparable to that of drug-seeking humans. Or was that a joke?"
