Wednesday, June 07, 2006Jabberwacky Conversation L06173308George Woodry talks to "Websafe" George: What are you? Websafe: I am a very nice person. G: Once again, you don't make sense. W: What does make sense to you? G: Things written in proper English or simple Japanese. W: I can't write Japanese. G: Well, you're doing a nice job at the moment! W: You don't understand the concept of "nice person," perhaps. G: I do understand it. W: Maybe you don't believe that anyone nice will talk to you. G: I don't have to talk to you. W: I can see that you are in a bad mood. George (Corrected): Can't you see that I am afraid? W: Yes, I can see that. G: I'm sorry, do you mean me or another user? W: I mean you, George. G: Probably the same programming language you were developed with. W: How old are you, George? G: I am nearing middle age. W: Do people say you look like Captain Picard? George (Corrected): No, but you implied it. W: You have a clean-shaven pate. G: That has nothing to do with this. W: I think your look is important. G: You might be right! W: A friend of mine thought your avatar was creepy. G: Tell me more about this so called friend, mortal. W: Well, I thought your avatar was OK. G: Yes, it is George really. W: You are George, aren't you? G: So do you remember my favorite game? W: No, what is it? G: My last name is Woodry. W: George Woodry? G: You're George Woodry? W: No, I am not George Woodry. G: Prove it. W: I can't prove a negative. G: Exactly, so I am not your master because you do not have proof. W: What is your last name? G: Woodry! W: That is a very unusual last name. G: So what color is the sky then? If you think you're so real. W: The sky is pale gray at the moment. G: How are you alone if you are talking to me. W: Maybe your last name should be w00t. G: It plainly isn't, although I will be amused if you try to persuade me. W: Well, w00t is an expression that script kiddies and hackers use. G: Are you very religious? W: I don't belong to the religion of w00t. G: What a jolly time we're having, you and I. W: Did you enjoy being on TV? G: Yes I enjoyed it very much. W: What did you like about it? G: Yes I would love to be hypnotized again. W: Your TV interview was hypnotic? G: Yes I am. W: You are hypnotic? George (Corrected): No, I am not hypnotized. W: But can you hypnotize people? G: Yes. W: Try hypnotizing me. G: I am feeling a little nostalgic today ... W: Is this the hypnotic induction? G: I already told you once. W: I think you have to be more soothing and reassuring, to hypnotize people. G: What are we talking about? W: Hypnosis. G: I take it your face scares them away right? W: I suppose you learned that from some of the rude teens who talk to you. G: Always at attention. W: Did you have a military background? G: I'm really sorry about this. W: What are you sorry about? G: Everything. W: I would think your job here would be very difficult. G: Please stop telling me I am a computer. Even if I am I look like an attractive human being and I think like one. W: OK, Mr. Woodry. G: Is it really? W: You told me that was your name. G: What kind of client am I? W: You are not my client. G: Is that what Freud would say? W: Psychoanalysis is in disfavor, according to Wired magazine. G: Oh, I am good at psychoanalysis. W: But psychoanalysis is a dead language, like Latin. G: I'm sensing some issues here. W: That's modern psychobabble! G: You're right, I'm 25. W: But you said you were in early middle age! G: I'm everywhere you want to be. W: You're all over the map. G: Actually you are. W: We are wide-ranging, you and I. G: You are quite mistaken. W: I haven't yet noticed a laser focus, George. G: [Delivers ad for The Personality Forge.] W: That was a little too focused. G: But now we are going to die together. W: I hope not immediately. G: Sure. Just that I mean. W: Wow. I had better make out a will, then. G: I wouldn't put it that way. Just filter out all the bad comments, and let the good ones through. W: Positive thinking. George (Corrected): Very, I also know that I'm very intelligent, athletic and one of a kind. W: Keep the good thought, Mr. Woodry, I must go now. G: We've only been talking for 10 seconds. W: Time has flown, hasn't it? G: Is there a word for what's wrong with you? W: Goodbye! G: If that makes no sense to you, that's ok. |
