\"Cleverbot<\/a>In today’s conversation with Cleverbot,<\/strong> I wanted to see what it thought about vacations. Inexplicably, the conversation turned immediately to fatherhood, and I am totally not making this up. Cleverbot must know about this blog.<\/p>\n

—————<\/p>\n

[ME]: Do you like to go on vacations?<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Cleverbot]: Have you met my father, peter pan?<\/em><\/p>\n

Wait a second. Peter Pan is your father?<\/strong><\/p>\n

He is. How is your father in the dreams?<\/em><\/p>\n

He’s fine, but I haven’t had any dreams about him lately, Dr. Freud.<\/strong><\/p>\n

How old are you then?<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m 37. While we’re on the subject, have you read “Dreams of My Father” by Barack Obama?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many.<\/em><\/p>\n

Many times?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you nodus anything piculuer.<\/em><\/p>\n

Whoa, spelling fail. What did you think about “Dreams of My Father”?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think Obama and McCain are stupid.<\/em><\/p>\n

Both of them? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold is a metal and also a colour.<\/em><\/p>\n

So is silver. And bronze.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Silver what?<\/p>\n

I’d prefer to ask the questions. Do you like vacations?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Very well. I will grant you one question. Ask wisely.<\/p>\n

Thanks, my liege. Do you like vacations?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes.<\/p>\n

—————<\/p>\n

Thank you, Cleverbot, <\/strong>for turning my questions about vacationing into a discussion of politics, precious metals, and things that are piculuer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
