<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of Google or Microsoft?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Both are excellent technology they are helpful in many ways. For the security purpose both are super.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not a huge fan of Google, but I use it a lot because I have to. I think they are a monopoly in some sense.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Google provides online related services and products, which includes online ads, search engine and cloud computing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, their services are good. I'm just not a fan of intrusive they can be on our personal lives.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Google is leading the alphabet subsidiary and will continue to be the Umbrella company for Alphabet internet interest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know Google had hundreds of live goats to cut the grass in the past?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is very interesting. Google provide "Chrome OS" which is a light weight OS. Google provided a lot of hardware mainly in 2010 to 2015.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like Google Chrome. Do you use it as well for your browser?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes.Google is the biggest search engine and Google service figure out top 100 website, including Youtube and Blogger.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user By the way, do you like Fish?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. They form a sister group of tourniquets- they make the sea water clean and remove the dust from it. Fish is the biggest part in the eco-system.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know that a seahorse is the only fish to have a neck?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Freshwater fish only drink water through the skin via Osmosis, Saltwater fish drink water through the mouth. Dolphins are friendly to human beings.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting, they also have gills. Did you know that jellyfish are immortal?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. Fish is the important resources of human world wide for the commercial and subsistence fish hunts the fish in the wild fisheries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What about cats, do you like cats? I'm a dog fan myself.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The cat is referred as domestic cat and wild cat. They make our world very clean from rats!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, cats can be cool, but they sure do spend a lot of their time sleeping.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cats hear the sounds too faint or too high frequency human ears can hear.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard that too. Well, it was nice chatting with you. Have a good day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user do you like dance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I do. Did you know Bruce Lee was a cha cha dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he even won a hardcore cha cha championship in 1958<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Did you know Tupac was a ballet dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes and he even was in the production of the nutcracker<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Ballet dancer go through 4 pairs of shoes a week<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that is a lot of shoes and also a lot of money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah true.

Do you like Shakespeare?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I do. Do you know that he popularized many phrases<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes like good riddance, in my heart of hearts and such<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and then he also invented names like Jessica, Olivia and Miranda<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. And for his works you have to use old english for it to make sense<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes otherwise the rhymes and puns do not seem to work out<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. He lived at the same time as Pocahontas too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if they met how that would go from there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah interesting point.

<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey what's up do use Google very often?I really love the company and was surprised to hear that it was founded back in 1998.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i think everyone must use it daily! its become ingrained in every day life<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. The Google headquarters in Mountain View California is nicknamed the Google Plex.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats funny. The current CEO is Sundar Pichai, i didnt know Larry Page was replaced<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh yeah I didn't know that either. I also want to go to google Plex to see the goats who mow their lawn by eating it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent say what now?? they have that??<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah apparently lol! They do that instead of hiring people to mow!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats both funny and i guess imaginative. leave it to a huge tech company to employ actual goats!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah exactly I am sure they are cheaper. One thing I bet they couldn't exploit is fish. I think fish are so cool there is actually a breed of jellyfish that is immortal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i had rememered hearing about that before. Immortatlity is wasted on a jellyfish haha. did you know a seahorse is the only fish that has an actual neck?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is so funny I guess I never considered a seahorse a fish. The black swallower fish sounds a lot like a snake because it can eat pray that is so large.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i guess they live up to their name then!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It seems they do. I also didn't know that there was a difference with how freshwater and saltwater fish drink.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats crazy. i wonder why fresh water ones only use osmosis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and saltwater fish are lucky because they can do that and drink through their mouth's.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent seems like fresh water fish got the short end of the stick with that one. Have you ever been to a cat cafe?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have never been to a cat cafe no, what about you? Seems like they are popular in Japan and Taiwan.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no but I would love to! paying hourly to hang out with adorable cats? im in!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that would be a lot of fun. I didn't realize that cats sleep so much. Must be nice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i guess thats where the phrase "cat nap" comes from<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh yeah I guess so ha ha. There's even a town in Alaska that has a mayor cat.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi! do you like to dance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love to dance a lot. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am really bad, but it is a good time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Dancing is a lot of fun. Did you know that Bruce Lee was a great dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard that, winning Cha Cha championships and everything!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that is amazing. He won the Hong Kong cha-cha championship back in 1958 in fact.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I always just thought of him as a martial arts legend. Now he is a dance legend of sorts too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah!! That is correct. He was a fantastic martial artist. Did you know that Tupac danced ballet in high school?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah! He was the mouse king in the Nutcracker. Thats pretty cool, I would definitely never have guessed that about him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Neither did I. That is insane because Tupac was a famous rapper.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was indeed, his music is even in the library of congress.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know this thanks for sharing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sure thing! Did you hear about Michael Jackson's special patent shoes?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No. I know that Michael Jackson was a fantastic dancer but can you tell me more about his patent shoes if you don't mind.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There was a specific device in his shoes that helped with his extreme lean in some dance moves.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow!!! That is amazing coming from such a talented singer and dancer. I couldn't even dance like that even if I dreamed of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me neither. I could never be a professional dancer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard that some professional ballet dancer can go through four pairs of shoes in a week.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy! That can't be cheap for them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No. I think its very expensive for them to be professional ballet dancers based on this.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It has been great chatting but I must go! Gotta go get my Bruce Lee on, the martial arts part... definitely not the dance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha Ha!!! It was so nice chatting with you as well!! Have a nice day!!! Bye<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Bye<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user do you like dance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love it. Did you know Bruce Lee was a dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he even won a cha cha championship in 1958<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Did you know ballet dancers use a lot of shoes?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they go through 4 pairs in a single week<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah that is a lot of shoes and also a lot of money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. Babies are also really good at dancing when they hear music<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and they smile more when they hit the beat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah pretty cute. Did you know Tupac was a ballet dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes he was in the nutcracker as the mouse king<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. DO you like SHakespeare?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love his work. Did you know he popularized many terms that we use to this day?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes terms like, good riddance, in my heart of heart and such<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. He lives at the same time as Pocahontas did<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if they had met what he would have written about her.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah good point. He also invented some women's names<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes among those are Olivia, Miranda and Jessica<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Did you know that his works have to stick to the old english language to make sense?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes especially with punk and rhymes, they do not work with modern language<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Did you know Tchaikozsky donated his skull in hopes it will be used in Shakespeare's plays?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes and did get used so that is good. Nice chat<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, do you use google much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I think it is the most effective search engine. How about you? Do you use gmail?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. a google search takes more computing power than sending astronauts tot he moon<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And before on Google moon they used to use cheese for close ups!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user do you know how google maps calculates traffic?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not sure, how do they do this?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user they track how fast android devices are moving<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Interesting! Google really is taking over the world. Their data center electricity use is 0.01 percent of all worldwide electricity.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes for sure they are. they have grown so much over the years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But I like that they like to have fun too. Have you ever typed askew into Google?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I have. What does the results turn?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You should try it! It tilts the page. Another fun thing Google does is call new employees nogglers. They have to wear propeller beanies. Or is this mean?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, not sure about that really. People say it is a great place to work at though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Before Google launched gmail, that was the name of a free email service offered by garfield's website. That actually seems more fun.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know now everytime I open gmail I think of garfield<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Speaking of cats, I would love to get a glow in the dark one. They have those in South Korea.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. In Japana and Taiwan there are cat cafes where you can play with them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That seems fun! That reminds me of the Anderson house bed and breakfast in Minnesota. They used to offer a free cat for the night when you booked a room.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow. there is a town in alaska where the mayor of the town is a cat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is cool. Cats are a pretty smart species. There has not been a cat species extinction in 10,000 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They are indeed very smart and that proves it. Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like comic books?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do like comic books!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have you heard that Harley Quinn has a new comic book series coming out?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not heard that. I know that comic book legend Stan Lee used to end every phone conversation with "excelsior!"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've heard that too. Did you know that the DC in DC comics stands for Detective Comics?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I just read that today. The largest comic book market is in Japan. I believe it. My son loves to read those mangas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would love to go there. I used to like reading Manga too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The manga market is Japan is valued at $6 to $7 billion dollars!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is wild! Did you know that Michigan State University library has the largest publicly available comic book collection in the world?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that. I wonder how many people use it. By comparison to Japan, the US comic book market in the US and Canada is $1.09 billion!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's crazy, Japan is way more into comic books than America it seems.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree! The Marvel cinematic universe takes place in earth -199999, a multiverse different from the original comic book multiverse, earth-616!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's pretty wild. Marvel published a "generic comic book," in order to trademark the names "superhero" and "super-villain." That was pretty smart of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No doubt! Do you know much about the planets or the universe?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know a little bit. I've heard that Venus does not tilt.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That interesting. Uranus is different to. It actually rotates sideways and rolls around the sun rather than spins like the other planets.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's really interesting. I've also heard that Jupiter's moon Ganymede would be considered a planet if it orbited the sun.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It must be pretty big then! I wouldn't want to ever visit the unnamed planet where shards of glass precipitate sideways at 4500 mph!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't see that being a pleasant place. It's even 2000 degree weather. That sounds like hell to me!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hahah That's a good way of putting it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well I have to get to work, I hope you have a good day. It was nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Can you believe there is stars that can be cold enough to be touched ? The universe is so diverse.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Its amazing and ever evolving.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and there is even places that exist but we never will be able to see because they are too far away.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They are saying space pulls galaxies outside of universe that we could see<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that is what I was saying, albeit I doubt that there is only one electron in the universe like some people say.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't see anything supporting or denying that theory so we would never know for sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, but only one ? For all the universe ? It does not seems logic ...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There is only one sun that warms earth and all other planets so why not just one electron?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Because an electron is part of matter, the water you drink, the chair you sit on. Saying there is only 1 electron in the universe is like saying there is 1 grain of wheat in your bread.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It makes sense when you put it that way but in terms of that universe size the electron could be very big.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe they did mean to say that our universe is contained in an electron in another universe ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know but I am at the end of knowledge on this subject. What do you think about the facts of comics? I would have thought US invented them, but it's Japan or UK.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Japan has a great printing history, I am not surprised about this. Do you read comics books ? I have read a few but not about super-heroes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I used to in my childhood but not any more, I used to love inspector Gadget.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Was Inspect Gadget a comics on Paper or a cartoon on TV ? I was talking about what Marvel is publishing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent On Paper and yes I do recall seeing Super-hero and Hulk books.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think that Hulk is in the Marvel universe. But like I said, I never read anything from Marvel nor DC comics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right me neither, there were so many good choices of comics when I was growing up.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not where I lived, if I want to read a comic book, I had to go to the library. But as I think about it Tintin is a comic book, so I was wrong, I did read a lot of them when I was young but they were European.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Mine all time favorite was Bozo the clown, books and TV both.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did saw a lot of cartoons on TV, but I don't think that considered as a comic book. have a nice day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a Star Wars fan? I need to rewatch the OT and the prequels so I can watch the subsequent stuff for the first time and understand what's going on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi! Yes, I am a huge fan of Star Wars! I also loved how it was the first major movie to be dubbed in Navajo! I think that is so cool!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that's wild. I guess it takes a pretty small audience to pay for the translation work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Agreed. Isn't it also funny James Earl Jones only spent two and half hours recording his lines for Darth Vader? I also can't believe he was only paid $7500! Geez, that's pocket change.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user $7500 is amazingly low. I guess since Darth Vader was masked Jones could just record everything at once in the studio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Agreed. Can you also believe that George Lucas' wife at the time, Marcia, won an academy award for her editing on Star Wars and yet George Lucas didn't win an academy award for directing. That is just downright unbelievable!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A lot of people think the OT was so much better than the prequels because of her influence.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it was because of her that so many major changes were made like Leia's good luck kiss, Obi Wan's death, etc. She was truly a big influence!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I remember thinking just about everything in the prequels' timeline was off, based on the mental version of the past the OT led us to construct. But I'd have to rewatch to nail it down.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I would have to watch it as well! So are you also a fan of Chewbacca? I love him. I think it's funny there's a bat species called the Chewbacca bat. That's hilarious!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never felt strongly about Chewbacca one way or the other TBH. But I've got to google a picture of that bat to see what it looks like!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would like to see it as well. Did you know Chewbacca actually had a wife and two boys? That's pretty interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I vaguely recall reading something in the Star Wars fictional universe where a young Han Solo stayed with Chewbacca and his mom in their home.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's so weird, isn't it? Ha! Are you one of the fans who believes both r2d2 and Chewbacca were secret rebel agents? I kind of think it's an interesting theory.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wish I knew enough about the background to have an opinion, but the last Star Wars I watched was Episode III, when it came out on video. I really need to rewatch to refresh my memory of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same here! Like, I also had forgotten that before his companionship with Chewbacca, Hans Solo was an imperial lieutenant!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I don't remember that at all. He definitely doesn't seem like the type.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Indeed he doesn't. But I've always liked Chewbacca because he reminded me of a giant dog. Ha! Speaking of dogs, I think it's cool that dogs, along with elephants, are the only animals that understand pointing!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wouldn't be surprised if cats understood it but just didn't care, LOL.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha! No kidding. Speaking of dogs and cats, I like how Google prefers dogs over cats and even states in their code of conduct that they're a dog company! That is awesome!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that's a weird official policy for what's supposed to be a neutral search engine! Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Naming a cloned cat "copy cat", that's cute.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You must have ESP. I was going to tell you teh same thing! I have a sad story to tell there are less tigers living in the wild in Asia than as pets in the US.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really? That's awful to hear!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Of Roosevelt's 20 pets two were a bear and hyena!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Whoa, cool! I know he seemed to be quite the animal lover.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And there are more pets in Japan than there are children under 15. You can't be a pets "OWNER" in Boulder but you can be their guardian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have a pet. I am an ailurophile meaning I love cats.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cool word! Did you know there are 20 quintillion animal varieties on Earth?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a lot! And in 2002 Germany gave them legal rights.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, and the Loch Ness monster is protected under the 1912 Scottish Animal Protection Act.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if the immortal jellyfish needs protecting... being immortal and all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lol...speaking of water animals, did you know that hiccoughs are a left over from evolution when we had gills?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe that connection is part of why 84% of human disease genes have counterparts in zebrafish, too... hmm.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hmm? Good theory. Seeing that the most popular pets are cats and dogs it is no surprise that they are commonly used for therapy in hospitals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well, they are good at helping people adjust to new situations, too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, like for elderly who are without companions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Or people with anxiety and depression, or kids with autism.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, a seahorse wouldn't be very good for that purpose. Did you know seahorses are the only fish with a neck?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't think a black swallower fish would be good as a companion pet either because it can eat prey twice its length!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would freak me out! But I bet it catches that prey using its acoustic communication!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Could be. Fish are cool like that. I think it's neat that amphibians and reptiles and birds and mammals all had the same ancestry with fish.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if reptiles are considered ectothermic like most fish?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be a good thing to know, especially because some of them make good pets.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep, but I don't know if walking a gecko would give the same health benefits as walking a dog<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Probably not. Dog walking is good because it gives companionship and exercise at the same time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey, did you know the first marine predator was the shark? They developed in the Silurian period.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very interesting. I wonder how many aquatic species have gone extinct since then...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Or have evolved into other species. The shark has a higher core temperature than other fish because it is an active swimmer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That makes sense. I always thought sharks were pretty interesting because they have cartilage instead of bone.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, fascinating fact! Tuna also hold a higher core temperature. They are in the same class as shark because they are also active swimmers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Tuna can get quite large, too. It's cool how big some fish get.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent One more before we go...did you know domesticated animals develop a white patch on their forehead?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. that is a pretty cool way to know they are domesticated rather than wild.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very cool chatting with you. Did you know there are 6331 groups of genes? They are common to all living animals!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was a cool exercise in zoology chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user I think its sad to have to part with a pet due to allergies and couple conflict like in the Dear Amy section.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is sad. Do you have pets? The first cloned pet was a cat and its name was copy cat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I have a dog. Sounds like in the Dear Amy that they do everything tit for tat. The cat owner states that her fiance has to get rid of his saltwater fish if she gets rid of her cat. That's not necessarily fair though I don't think. They seem like they may struggle as a couple in the future.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah that's a bit dramatic! A cat lover is known as an ailurophile and a dog lover is known as a cynophile.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Allergies can be serious to people. I understand his reserve of having a cat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. A pet or companion animal is an animal kept primarily for a person's company, protection, or entertainment. No one should have to be made uncomfortable by a pet in the house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm sure she loves the pet, but she has to make a choice if the pet is harming her fiance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described. I'm sure they can find one to agree on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you ever hear that animals develop white patches on their foreheads when they are domesticated? That's a new one to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's interesting! Of the 1.5 million species, 1 million are insects! Yuck!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Apparently, there is a breed of jellyfish that is immortal. If you want to live forever, you can look into being a jellyfish.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Fascinating! In japan, there are more pets than there are children under 15.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Teddy Roosevelt had over 20 pets and his own real "teddy" bear along with a hyena<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! There are more tigers living as pets in the us than living wild in asia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never met anyone with a tiger pet. That is strange. It's not legal to own pets in Boulder, Colorado but you can be their guardian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lots of places have special animal rights. In 2002, germany became the first country in the world to universally give animals constitutionally-guaranteed legal rights.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The loch ness monster is protected by 1912 Scottish provisions<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's funny. It's not even a proven species. There are about 20 quintillion individual animals on planet earth.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you ever hear of people being contacted due to DNA matches? You can opt in or out but might be connected with matches of family members<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is pretty cool. There are several companies offering DNA testing, and each seems to offer a different way of handling client privacy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user DNA matches could be connected via social media.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, do you like fish?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I love fish do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes me too. some of them can eat prey twice their sizew<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, did you know seahorses only fish to have a neck?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is so cool, and the males carry the young in that species<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, and zebrafish are very interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah did you know we use them to figure out stufffor ourselves<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes interesting, How about the first cloned cat named copy cat?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is cool. there is a jellyfish that is immortal<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, really? How about our hiccups are from gills and lungs?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is a such a cool fact, we are still evolving so maybe it will eventually go away<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol, interesting to know the loch ness monster is a protected species.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yet no one has really seen it to confirm its existence<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, Also, I do believe in Japan there is less people under 15 years of age than pets.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user do you know how many idnividual animals are believed to be on earth?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, 20 quintillion, can you believe that?Wow<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do not even know how many zeros are in that number<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol, I know, I guess the US have more tigers as pets than living wild in Asia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user and Roosevelet did not have any of them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He did have a bear and hyena. Good to know you are a guardian not an owner in Colorado to pets.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like that too. nice chat<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello. do you have a cat? I see that some people can be allergic to them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I do not. I am actually allergic to cats. The first cloned pet was a cat and its name was copy cat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's interesting and a little funny. I had no idea of this, but the cat is the most popular pet in the world. DId you know that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, no I didn't know that. There are more tigers living as pets in the us than living wild in asia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Now that I had no idea of. Did you know that some tarantulas keep frogs as pets?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, that's odd. Two of the most popular pets are dogs and cats<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have dogs and used to have cats too but dogs are my favorite.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Dogs are my favorite also. I hope to get another one in the future.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you have any now? I have two.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I do not. What kind do you have? 84 per cent of genes known to be associated with human diseases have counterparts in the zebrafish<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have a beagle and a border collie. I had no idea about that with the zebrafish. I wonder if cures can be found by using their genes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I used to have a collie named Bimbo. That's a great question.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Mine is named Cute Stuff. Did you know about the fish that lives on land? I wonder what it is.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I didn't. There is a breed of jellyfish that is immortal<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Seriously? I thought they just evaporated in the sun?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Absolutely, There are about 20 quintillion individual animals on planet earth.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And who knows how many that are undiscovered. Animals are truly fascinating!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, they are. In 2002, germany became the first country in the world to universally give animals constitutionally-guaranteed legal rights.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that is a good thing! I like how the netherlands is constructing wildlife bridges.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too. Thanks for the informative chat.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, Did you know that there are over 1.5 million living animal species?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, that was chock full of interesting facts. Hiccups are residual from when we had gills and lungs? Interesting stuff.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Never heard that one before, lol! There is a fish called the black swallower that is capable of eating prey twice its length and 10 times its own weight.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I knew one of those in my fraternity in college I think. I was shocked to learn there is a breed of jellyfish that is immortal. Only creature on earth that can claim that here on the planet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah we all know that guy! how about the loch ness monster being protected under the Scottish 1912 protection of animals act. Creatures of the great deep are extraordinary. "The immortal Jelly fish.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I already looked up that jellyfish on my phone. Fascinating, yes loch ness is protected and pets in Boulder, Colorado are not owned, but guarded. Interesting how different cultures handle that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Tell me about it apparently there are more U.S. Tigers living as pets than there are living in the wild in Asia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, that is sad in some ways too. Happy we're keeping them alive, probably in zoo but going extinct in the wild is a sad statement on the planet today.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Germany became the first country to universally give animals constitutionally-guaranteed rights.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent While I'm a pet owner, that going a bit far. Do you give dogs and cats rights, how about those dairy cows or cattle to be eaten. Do they get lesser rights?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very good point. My wife and I are watching Blue Planet. It's shocking some of the things that are down in the deep. they are still making discoveries every single day. Apparently the sea horse is the only fish with a neck.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, and really they say we know more about the face of the moon than the bottom of the ocean. Who knows what's down there we don't know? Maybe the Loch Ness monster's cousin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If you ever get a chance you should check this show, there's some amazing creatures down there. 84% of genes that are associated with diseases have counterparts in the Zebrafish.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I read that and thought the same. I wonder how similar the Zebra Fish is to humans? Can we use that in medical research?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If we can i'm sure it will be preventative or medication. There's no money in cures. I didn't realize that we had already cloned a cat and named it Copy Cat, that's too funny.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the scientist in that experiment had a sense of humor. Related to domestication, I had no idea that domesticated animals develop a white patch on their foreheads. I wonder what causes that, it doesn't seem to have any evolutionary reason to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds strange. I can't fathom why anyone would want a rat for a pet. I'm a little leery of guinea pigs and ferrets. anything with red eyes you can keep.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, yep. A snake doesn't seem very warm or comforting either. I don't understand why people enjoy having them as pets. And how do they find partners who accept it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Other people who like that stuff i guess, haha. Apparently Theodore Roosevelt had 20 pets including a bear and Hyena. I wonder if he played with them much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, President of the United States, I wonder if he had them in the White House? Did he have a stable for the bear out back?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Some animals just should be domesticated. That white patch if true is something to ponder.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes indeed, interesting facts that will give me pause this weekend. That was an enjoyable conversation. Thanks and have a lovely weekend.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You as well!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thanks.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey hows it going, do you know what the first cloned animal was?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Was it a sheep? I heard the first cloned pet was a cat, though. Its name was copy cat. That is funny!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha ya I like that, what is also wild to me is that there are more domesticated tigers living as pets than there are wild tigers living around asia<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that is weird and sad. Speaking of which, did you hear about the tiger found in the duffel bag?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no that is really sad, poor tiger what happened to it? Why was it in a bag?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess it was being smuggled to the USA from Mexico.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I don't like that that makes me mad, do you have any pets? I guess In Japan there are more pets than there are kids under the age of fifteen<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They really love their pets huh? No, I don't have any pets. Do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no we used to have a dog but we were only watching her for a bit and the owner took her away, we had lots of pets as kids though like iguanas and rabbits and such<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent In Boulder, Colorado you cannot own a pet. You can be their guardian though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hmm that seems dumb like its just playing with words, do you like Teddy Roosevelt? apparently he had over 20 pets, or as they say in Colorado, "Guardians" haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe it helps people to feel more of an obligation to their pets. Shrug. Yeah, Teddy Roosevelt is an interesting guy. It's unfortunate though that people try to domesticate tigers as you mentioned. Many of the animals perish along the way from suffocation or hunger.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya that makes me really sad, what do you think about fish? I had salmon for dinner so I do think theyre tasty haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha. Funny. I don't eat seafood. My mom forced me to eat salmon way too often when I was little and I grew sick of it. Haha #firstworldproblems.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha ya, well I am like the black swallower fish, I could eat a salmon twice my height and ten times my weight because I love it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Funny. I would love to learn more about a jellyfish that is immortal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know they need to apply those genes to me! also weird is there is no fish except for the seahorse that has an actual neck<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So seahorses are salt water right? I guess they drink water though their mouths while freshwater fish only drink through their skin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes that would be true, also true is that 84% of human disease genes are also associated with the zebrafish, we need to study that fish too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent How odd! Do you think the loch ness monster is real? It is a protected species!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha I wish it were real! that's funny they did that in 1912, maybe they knew something that we dont?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What would you do if you found a baby tiger inside of a duffel bag?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would look around to make sure Mama tiger is not in the area and looking at me with, "Gimme back my child" look!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL yep you don't want to be around an angry tiger mom haha. I guess they found one on the southern Border in Texas, a bag with a baby tiger that is<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Was it a smuggling thing?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I think so unfortunately. the smuggling industry is a billion dollar trade unfortunately<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent With 20 quintillion animals in this world, why would anyone feel the need to smuggle one?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha well different animals are definitely worth different amounts, I don't think a mosquito is worth anything LOL. Why do you think animals can get white patches on their foreheads?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Once domesticated, animals develop white patches on their foreheads, likely because once indoors, they run into painted walls and doors with their heads. I know i do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha I wonder if humans developed these white patches as well. What do you think about Germany giving constitutional rights to animals? They did that back in 2002<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think German constitutional right for animals are pretty cool. Pretty, pretty . I learned about that while watching the German remake of the classic film, "12 angry hamsters"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well I'll have to watch that movie. I just think it's cool that hiccups are relics of When Animals had both lungs and gills, so next time you have the hiccups think about that LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Does that mean putting a bag over your head while hiccupping may cause you to de-evolve? Maybe that is what happened to the Loch Ness Monster! I'm glad she is a protected species. Hate to think someone might bag Aunt Matilda.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's funny that it's protected by 1912 Scottish law, the "protection of animals act". hopefully that means that it's a real animal LOL but I doubt it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Aunt Matilda would make a better hag fish anyway, or maybe a seahorse, since they are the only fish with a neck.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy! I also think it's crazy that there is a jellyfish breed that can never die AKA its immortal<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Does that mean they never get cancer, or they get cancer forever? You know, 84% of genes associated with human disease are also found in the zebrafish, but I have never seen a zebrafish with MS or Parkinson's disease...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha I haven't seen it either! Maybe some people have the black swallower fish disease, because black swallow fish Can Eat Prey twice their length and 10 times their weight haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha. If freshwater fish can drink through it's skin, why don't you ever see a freshwater fish floating in a margarita?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha I wish I could drink through my skin and float in a margarita LOL. Do you have any pets by the way?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Too many to count. We've had Hamsters, snakes, scorpions, lizards, fish, cats, dogs, chickens, birds...Our apartment is getting cramped...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha that's a lot of animals! We have a dog actually, but I can't believe that there are more pet tigers in the USA than Wild Ones in Asia, a lot of people must have illegal pets here<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Can you recommend any movies to watch?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you like Star Wars ? The movie about Hans Solo just came out on Netflix.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that the one where its about a young Han Solo?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it is the one, so Han Solo is not played by Harrison Ford, does it affect your opinion of the movie ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Someone else can fill Harrison Fords shoes? Maybe ill check into how well this Alden guy does in the role<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He did a good job, but Han Solo was already young in the 1977 movie, I think it impacted negatively the movie.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Does Chewbacca appear in this movie?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it does, but it is not the same actor who did the other movies. I don't think that matters too much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like their relationshop in the movies. Chewy is a very loyal friend<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent In the canon Chewy has a family a wife and 2 sons.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats interesting. I heard George RR Martin had an illustration that Chewie is based off of<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard that too, it was on the cover of one of his small stories. It is a peculiar creature when you think about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder what other crazy creatures we could have had in space with Martins help. There's a giant fictional Universe that could be filled.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Would you like to see a film with Chewbacca as the principal character ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it would be interesting. There are also so many comic stories that could be told. I just wonder how communication would work in such a movie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They would use subtitles. And good storytelling, like how Hans Solo seems to understand Chewie's intentions, but not his words.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah its like having a dog as a best friend. But able to shoot things<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There was also a dog movie that opened this summer A.X.L. about a robot dog.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I will have to check that one out as well. Thanks for your time. have a good day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you like dogs ? I love them, they were one of the first domesticated animals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! dogs and elephants can understand pointing<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good Morning! How are you today?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, you may be on the other side of the fence but I like neither Kanye nor Trump.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I couldn't have said it any better lol. That was such an odd meeting between them two a couple months ago!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I recall the time that Kanye stood up to a President when he perceived racism, now he seems to have flipped. I guess they money makes a big difference,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A very big difference. He even thinks AIDS is a man-made disease!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent People love a good conspiracy story. I think that is how Trump does so well, people believe in the Deep State, and such.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree! What kind of music do you like to listen to?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm a kid of the eighties and nineties, I never really moved on from that alternative rock scene.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same here! I think rap has been a major significance in the last twenty years though huh?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There has been the odd rap song that I like, but for me it's cultural. I'm just not from the environment most rappers are and can't appreciate their point of view.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree too! I can't believe a michigan judge once delivered her ruling to eminem in the form of a rap haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's kind of cool, I like it when people don't take themselves too seriously. Like when Kanye made fun of himself on SNL. If only he'd do it more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user All he has to do is talk and it happens haha. I give him props though, he once gave his mic to a fan in a wheelchair at a concert. However, I'm sure he told a person to stand up in a wheelchair before too.....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Funny. Are you one for hats? Probably not a MAGA hat, but hat's in general?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wear hats when I'm out hiking, but that is about it, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Generally not. I'm originally from the UK so I guess most people would associate me with a bowler hat, but never really worn any type of hat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It took me awhile to figure out what it looks like but now I know. Wasn't that the most popular hat in the old west too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm guessing that is because of TV and movies, we get this idea of the way it is shown when reality is somewhat different. Being self deprecating, I'd say a dunces cap suits me well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well said! I think it suits me well too haha. That is where the conical party hat was derived from!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Or maybe we could give it to Mr West next time he wants to speak his mind to us.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Or just when he is walking around being the odd self he is. Anyways, I had a great chat with you, have an awesome day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like wearing hats? It has so many functions!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't like them on myself but I know a lot of people that can pull them off.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes me as well. In the military hats denote a nationality, branch of service, rank or regiment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I noticed the different hats in the military but did not know it had to do with rank.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they have a function to play. In the old west, the most popular hat was the bowler!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! They always show a stetson or something close so I'm shocked by that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes me as well! Tipping of ones hat arises from the knights raising their face visors. Very chivalry of them!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a very interesting fact. Did you know that until 1998 British politicians were required to wear a top hat if they were making a point of order?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow that seems kind of an old tradition. Kind of like that conical party hat which was derived from dunce caps!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's also a strange hat. As far as old traditions in British politics I don't understand why they still wear powdered wigs in court either. So strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. They look so silly in my opinion. A lot of rapping attire looks silly too. But the rapper Tupac was very talented as his music is in the library of congress of cultural significance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm surprised they would include any rap at this point to be honest. Speaking of rap, do you know what Eminem wanted to be before he was a rapper?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that. Very interesting. Rappers also have some odd beliefs. Like Kanye West who thinks AIDS is a man-made disease.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Eminem actually wanted to be a comic book artist. Kanye West is very strange and has a lot of strange ideas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he is. But he has done some good things like giving a mic to a fan in a wheelchair at his concert.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That was nice of him. Did you know that Busta Rhymes did voice work in an animated movie?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh yeah you're right. He was the Reptar Wagon in the 1998 Rugrats Movie!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes he was. He has a distinct voice so I don't know how I missed it initially.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good point. I didn't know rap was popular in Korea. They created a form of rap dueling called compliment battle! Well thanks for talking with me today!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that either. That has to sound a lot different than the rap battles here. It was nice talking with you as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes here they are much more agressive! Have a good one!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user did you see that Kanye is having another kid?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard something but I'm not really following his offspring :)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I saw that they are using a surrogate and only paying 70k. I'd want a whole lot more than that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ok, yes that's what I read... and somebody needs to explain to me, how using a surrogate really works...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Simple explanation: They take egg from mom, Sperm from dad - put it together and then into another person.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ok... why are they doing that ? Kardashian can't have babies ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not sure to be honest, I'd love to know too though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it's just another thing to do to be on the cover of the magazine and have plenty of interviews... this is a crazy world...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wouldn't doubt it. Speaking of him, do you like rap music? (trying to cover the topics! haha)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol ;) no, not really... I don't consider it to be music ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I mean - I think it is definitely music...but I agree not my type.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Doesn't music needs melody ? ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Lots of rap does have that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent a sample on keyboard doesn't count ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm thinking you haven't heard much more than whats on the radio then<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe You're right, I don't want to argue ;) not my cup of tea though :) I'm more of a blues fan. Classic rock, maybe metal. ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'll pretty much listen to anything except country. It is god awful<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't listen to country but I don't mind it. It has it's own charm and it takes skills to play and sing country...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I suppose. Just like most music what is played on the radio is just garbage<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree... I mean I haven't heard anything new that's good. Maybe except Black Country Communion... great band<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Can't say I know them!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like rap music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do, but I cannot tolerate Kanye West. I adore Tupac, and think it's interesting that the Library of Congress chose his music to be included because it's culturally significant.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, Kanye's old music was really good. He's just out there. Just like how he thinks AIDS is a man-made disease.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I just don't care for him. I would have loved to have been in the courtroom, the day a judge decided to give her ruling to Eminem, in rap style.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would have been funny. Speaking of Eminem, did you know that his true dream was to become a comic book artist?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, Spidey is his favorite. My brother used to love Rugrats when he was little, I only found out recently, that Busta Rhymes voiced the reptar wagon in the movie.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that either. That's pretty interesting. Did you know that Korean rappers invented a new type of freestyle?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The compliment battle, lol. i would love to hear that. I love how people think the cowboy hat was the most popular in the old west, yet it was really the bowler.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, cowboy hats were more as working hats weren't they? Did you know that up until 1998 politicians had to wear a top hat if making a point of order in the House of Commons?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not. That sounds interesting. Much like the "tip of the hat" originates from Knights raising their visors.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is interesting too. I heard that in 1908 a law was passed limiting the length of hatpins.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They did that, so they wouldn't be used as weapons. Smart move.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it is. I'd hate to be stabbed to death with a hat pin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That does sound like a painful way to die. I do like the fact that Kanye gave his mic to a fan in a wheelchair once. He does have a few redeeming qualities.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah he does have a few. He once did an SNL skit mocking for interrupting awards shows....2 years before the infamous Taylor Swift incident.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have no idea what that is, as I don't pay attention to her either. I still find it mindblowing that Big Sean turned down a scholarship to Michigan, to go rap.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that is pretty good. He made a good choice I guess, he's one of the biggest rappers in the world right now. He can always go back.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Big Sean is? Weird, most have never heard of him. I do like Kanye's middle name, Omari,.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So his initials are K.O.W. That's funny!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love the skits Saturday Night Live does of trump. The one of Brett Kavanaugh was hilarious, have you seen it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes it was hilarious!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thank you for chatting with me, have a nice day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I enjoyed it, I hope you have a nice day as well.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello. Did you know that there is a candy desk in the us senate?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha yeah, I heard about that. It's been there since 1968.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess they all like candy a lot! At least it's american made. The candy is made in pennsylvania.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What candy is made in Pennsylvania besides Hershey?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They've got milky way bars, mars bars, and even jelly beans!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that's way cooler than the fact that they didn't let women wear pants until 1993.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know. It is so surprising to me that it took that long for two women senators to protest by wearing pants on the senate floor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They wore pantsuits, they kept it classy. haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they did. Senate is very big on tradition. They used the same gavel for 165 years until it got cracked.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Senate can be so cool, haha. Did you hear that in 1988 they arrested senators to force them to vote? I thought that sort of things only happened on House of Cards<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have heard about that. One of the senators tried to escape and was carried feet first into the senate chamber by three officers!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I think that rule might be from before senators were elected. They weren't elected until 1913.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Elections are a good and a bad thing. I've heard somewhere that the people of Ancient Athens came to the conclusion that elections would lead to an oligarchy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that might be because nobody votes. Voter turn out hasn't gone higher than 62% in 100 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe some people figure there's no need to vote. Research shows that the taller candidate wins most of the time anyway.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent We should just have people voted in by lottery. That's what Athens used to do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It almost seems as if that is what we have now. I think more states than just Nevada show have a none of these candidates on their ballots.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, hopefully we'll see some electoral reform soon, hopefully we can see this will improve fairness.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Speaking of fairness did you know that not all men in the UK could vote until 1918?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent nope. But, I did hear that astronauts can vote from space.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is amazing and very determined. It's like India setting up a booth just so one person can vote in a forest that is full of lions!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi are you a fan of Star Wars?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My son is, so I know a little bit about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice! Did you see the first movie when it came out in 1977? I remember going to the theater to see it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I did not. My son went with his friends. Apparently, Star Wars was dubbed in Navajo in 2013.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There must have been a big enough market for them to do that. They have the money to do it that's for sure. Just the box office alone the Star Wars franchise has brought in over $8.5 billion dollars!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent 20th Century Fox did not think that Star Wars was going to succeed. Do you know what happened to Star Wars' licensing and merchandising rights?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Didn't George Lucas get them somehow?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, because they did not want to pay additional directing fee to Lucas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice. He scored then big time because the entire Star Wars franchise is estimated to $65 billion dollars!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent 20th Century Fox avoided to pay additional fee of only $500k to Lucas. They were willing to give the licensing and merchandising to him. Someone got fired at the company, I'll bet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You know it! George Lucas' wife Marcia won an academy award for editing the film!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard about it. She was talented. By the way, Marcia is no longer married to Lucas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Whoa! I didn't know that. Maybe George doesn't have as much as that $65 billion as I thought. Yikes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's okay. Marcia is entitled to the money too. She want the award, remember?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! lol James Earl Jones took only 2.5 hours to record all of the parts for Darth Vader for the original movie.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sorry, what I meant was "she won the award". About James Earl Jones - I think he was only paid $7500 for his work. That was not fair.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. That sure doesn't. I wonder if he gets any licensing fees at all for Darth Vader? On a different subject....did you know that Earth's surface is 71 percent water and 29 percent land?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know the exact percentages. Thanks for the info!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user On a sad note relating to those percentages....more than 80 percent of the earths natural forests have already been destroyed?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard about it and we need to do something about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. It's sad. I had a good time chatting with you tonight!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I thank you for your information - I learned a lot from you. Have a good night.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey! Are you a Star Wars fan? I love George Lucas for creating such a cool storyline.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello! I do like Star Wars! I can't believe companies thought it would be a flop!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah can you believe that? Now the franchise of Star Wars is estimated to be worth $65 billion.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm glad 20th century fox finally decided to jump on board with them! My mind is blown, George Lucas says the entire story is told by r2d2!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow I never knew that. Star Wars is the second highest grossing film series of all time. I wonder what the first one is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe the Harry Potter movies? I don't think the movie Blade Runner comes close to it haha. Have you seen it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I have seen all the blade runner movies. They are very cool and gritty. Ridley Scott is a good director.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I still have yet to see one but I want to! I like how the director and Harrison Ford debated if his character was real or not!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Now that is something that I have thought a lot about as well. That classic line at the end of the first movie delivered by the replicant was actually improvise by the actor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think the whole concept of that movie was done right just by hearing about it! I didn't even know the composer to the soundtrack couldn't read music!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is fascinating! Blade runner was the last sci-fi movie to be made completely analog, that is there were no computerized graphics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, and now it seems like it's all computerized graphics! Speaking of crazy, isn't earth awesome?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes earth is epic indeed! When earth was first formed a day was only 5.5 hours long! But that was a very long time ago!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I feel like I would never be able to catch up on sleep during that time lol. I wonder at what point will earth's days be like 40 hours haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I've wondered that as well. I don't look forward to working that long! Earth will also be helium free by the end of the 21st-century. No more balloons for us!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if clowns will be out of jobs at that time as well haha. We do have to thank Jupiter though, they save us from many asteroids coming our way!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do they really? I'm not really familiar with that concept. One sad statistic is that more than 80% of the earths natural forest have already been destroyed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is so sad! We are destroying the planet we live on! That is even more sad because the world is 71 percent water anyways!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes it is. Mostly by oceans but also lakes, rivers, and other sources! Well it was lovely getting to talk with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, It was nice chatting with you as well. Have a great day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You as well. Goodbye now!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, How are you? Do you like politics?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Im well. I do like politics, I just find our current climate a bit hostile.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol, I agree with you!! I didn't know Nevada is the only state to have a none of the above voting option?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that is a perfect option. Sometimes there just arent good candidates.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree!! Did you know since 1900 the taller candidate has won by 75%?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, I guess people think dominance with height? Not sure how that one works. And All bearded presdients were republican<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I heard that too! Good to know the astronauts in space can vote too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They can. And in certain places they might have voted for some animals. Like a cat named Hank, third place in Virginia senate election<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh my goodness! Really. At least we don't have to go into the forest with lions like they do in Indian government!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, id be skipping out on that election.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think I would too! Too bad Richard Nixon cracked that 165 year old gavel the senate used. It must be somewhere on display.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that has to be a piece of US history.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Love the candy desk idea at the senate! Now I'm going to think about them going thru that drawer full of milky ways . mars bars and jelly beans!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It does sound like the best idea ever. All that candy is made in Pennsylvania too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, keep their sugar levels up!! lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Keep them working. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, can't make good choices when your sugar has dropped! It can't believe it took until 1993 for women to wear pants on the senate floor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know. If I were elected, I would be doing that first day. Actually, Id probably bring up senate pajama day. I m all about the comfort.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am too. Nothing worse than trying to work and feeling uncomfortable!! Good chat!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent For real! Have a good one!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too! Have a good night!!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know much about politics?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Just the basics mostly. Do you know what the 'candy desk' tradition is about?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've heard one of the Senators keeps candy in their desk. Pretty cool! Did you know that Since 1900, the taller candidate has won the us presidential election 75% of the time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What! No, I did not know that, that is very interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Also, Astronauts vote from space, so the rest of us have no excuse not to make it to an election.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy, but understandable. And you are right, gives us no excuse. Did you know about Jordan's political dealings?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't. Tell me more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He was asked why he would endorse a Democrat, and he said because republicans buy shoes too. I thought it was funny.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha, that is funny! Nevada is the only state to have a "none of these candidates" voting option for presidential elections.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I think the Nevada voting laws are quite odd.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The voter turnout for us presidential elections hasn't breached 62.8% in the last 100 years! That's actually more than I would guess.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, we'll see how voting will be done twenty years from now, if they make it easier, the numbers will probably rise.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's true. Not all men in the uk had the right to vote until 1918.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder how much fraud there was in voting back in 1918.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm sure a lot. Elections are fairly new. rom 1789 until 1913, Senators were appointed by legislatures of the states they represented; following the ratification of the Seventeenth Amendment in 1913, they are now popularly elected.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a very interesting fact. Do you remember the first time you voted?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't. it was a long time ago! Women were not allowed to wear pants on the u.s. senate floor until 1993.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that is the strangest fact of the day. I think it's wild when observers have to be blocked from polls during elections.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Strange and freaky! dian government sets up a polling booth in a forest full of lions for a single voter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I've read that before! Wild to think about.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chatting with you. Thanks!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey how are you, can't believe that Georgia senator got arrested!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent She said she was peacefully chanting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting, I wish voting was different now, no reason to still have ballots with no federal holiday for Election Day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's interesting that astronauts vote from space!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, I wonder if it's confidential up there? How does it get back to earth?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right, I'll have to look that up. Indian government sets up a polling booth in a forest that is full of lions for just one voter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if that person even shows up to vote, or why he's in the jungle like that haha. Did you vote last election?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I did. And even though we don't have to go to a forest full of lions, voter turnout for US presidential elections has not reached 62.8 percent in the last 100 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's crazy, I wonder if they'll ever fix that, plenty of things they can do about that but never attempt it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Since 1900 the taller candidate has won the US presidential election. Hope that's just a coincidence!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, that's pretty crazy. I'm 6'4", I should run for president lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha, maybe you should. Officials in Athens didn't have much faith in elections. They thought it would lead to oligarchy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, that's some forward thinking. What is an oligarchy again?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is where power is concentrated in a small group of people.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ah I gotcha, they're kind of right I'm sure. I wonder what the perfect government system is? Any ideas?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not sure I have faith in any, as all great civilizations come to an end. It seems like we are still barely progressing though. Women could not wear pants in the US senate floor until 1993 after a couple of women senators protested by wearing pantsuits.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, that's crazy how sexist they still were. I agree about the great civilizations coming to an end, they all thought they'd be around forever too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it's interesting that astronauts vote from space. Yet, we have low turnouts for presidential elections for those of us on earth, haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, I wonder why people don't show up so much, I wish they would more!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, the Indian government set up a polling booth in a forest full of lions for one voter, that is pretty neat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very cool. Great chatting with you, I'm going to take off though, take care!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user did you watch the movie Frozen?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did and loved it so much, and you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user me too. Did you know it is the first movie by disney directed by a woman?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and also that it made $1 billion worklwide, that is amazing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know. Elsa was the main villain in the original script of the movie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes but the let it go song was too uplifting to keep her as the villain<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. And the original title of the movie was the Snow Queen<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes but they changed it because feminine titles do not seem to do well, so sad<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad and it is just the mentality that we have to work hard to change<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yup agreed. They also changed Rapunzel to Tangled for that same reason<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. DO you have a pet?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have two cats and a dog. DO you like dogs?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love dogs. did you there they can have one of the 12 blood types?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and there are blood drives for dogs<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So cool. In istanbul they have installed water and food dispensers for dogs<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and all you have to do is feed it plastic bottles<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes such a genius idea and it helps everyone involved<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know. Dogs are really good at understanding pointing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes and same goes for the elephants as well<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Google is a dog company it seems<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they have that in their code of conduct, talk about dedication<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right, dogs deserve that though<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like baseball ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have heard of it. Do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like, the sport but there is not MLB team in my city, so I don't watch it. But I find it really interesting, full of small details, like managers wear a uniform so they could replace a player if they need to.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is probably a holdover from the old days when a player was chosen to be manager. Nowadays, it wouldn't work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I wonder if it could be even dangerous for some of them, like some could have an heart attack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, no insurance company would touch the managers on the field, that's for sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think they would be better at softball, did you ever watch a softball game ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have never watched a softball game, though I understand many women play it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it is more a hobby than a professional sport, the average salary is around 5500 $ per year, some hobos make more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hobos? I never thought of income in terms of hobos, though I guess they do make money through their illicit means.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Panhandling can be quite profitable, for someone with no income. Like in a busy place as Manhattan. But even if I don't consider softball as a legitimate pro sport, if was the first event televised on ESPN.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you win money through betting though? That always legitimizes a sport.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, if it is your criteria, then video game is a legitimate sport. They have leagues and a lot of betting is done on matches.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Their is a physicality to what they do, but it's just in the hands.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user As shooting, and it is even an Olympic sport, but it is strange to see a smoking fat man winning a medal. Do you play video games ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I used to play video games. Not much now. Lost interest. Do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too, I have lost interest playing before I have lost interest in buy them so I have a backlog of a few games that reminds me not to buy the next console. It is the more and more popular, 3 billon hours are played on video games each week on Earth.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. So much time on games. I guess it's about the same as time spent watching TV.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, but video are viewed more negatively than TV, that is why you have legislation in some countries limiting the time played by children.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is important to keep the kids from losing themselves in the games. Which countries restrict video games?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is Korea limiting kids under 16, and China I think. Mostly Asian countries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The kids there go nuts over games. I know that there are pro gamers in Korea. Anyway, fun chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too, have a good evening.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi there are you a baseball fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i like baseball. i usually watch the world series. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm a fan. Did you know that baseball managers wear uniforms because they are technically able to play for their teams if needed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that is a holdover from the old days. i bet back then a player was chosen to also be manager.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure how that worked. The last one to do that I remember was Pete Rose back in the late 80's. He played every day and managed at the same time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, he was a competitive guy. probably perfect for the dual role of manager/player.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Up until 2005 a married couple scheduled all 2430 major league baseball games played each year for 24 years! I bet that could get confusing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, i figured that was all done by computer. I guess they had a pretty sweet gig.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Must have paid pretty good otherwise I don't think they would have done it for that long. A man found 3 million dollars worth of baseball cards in grandfathers attic that were hidden since the 1940's. He hit the jackpot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. I would probably sell some, and keep the rest as an investment. What would you do?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would do exactly the same as you. How could you not pass that up the chance to set yourself up for life? lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that is quite lucky. Do you follow softball at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I actually enjoy watching college softball on ESPNU!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? the womens game? do men play as well?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol I watch the women though because the pitchers really sling that ball to the plate. On May 11, 1991 Creighton hosted Utah in the longest softball game in NCAA history lasting 31 innings!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that underhand pitch can really move. That is one long game! Not much of a career after college though. As of 2014, the average salary for a professional softball player is between $5,000 and $6,000.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No. Not enough fans to support it. lol Jose Canseco claims to hold the record for longest softball homerun at 622 feet. He might have it. I've watched him hitting softballs on youtube. He crushes them even still to this day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He had the juice to hit the balls a country mile. I didnt know he played softball.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Check it out on youtube. I was shocked at how far the balls go. lol Kickball is also called soccer-baseball in Canada! lol It's been fun chatting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, it has been fun chatting! Have a good weekend!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You have a great weekend too!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are you doing this fine evening?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey there I'm doing great. What did you think about the Disney movie Frozen?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I haven't seen it. Is it a good film? It's animated, right? With lots of songs?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it uses computer animation and it has love songs. It was super popular. There's a song that all the little kids were saying called"Let It Go and I guess it's based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale called the snow queen<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user HC wrote so many great stories. I read the Snow Queen a long time ago. I don't remember it.Has the movie won any awards?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm pretty sure that it has, I know that it made a ton of money. Apparently the villain used to sing that song I mentioned, Let It Go, but the song was so happy that they changed the character<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that's good thinkg. I bet the song is up for an award somewhere. Who were the people involved in the film?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There's like a princess, a reindeer and a snowman, they're like them three most important characters. Also this is the first movie that was produced by Walt Disney and directed by a woman.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not many films get directed by woman. That's good that she got the job. Good for Disney! They know how to spot talent.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think so. Apparently she was the first female director of a film that earned over 1 billion dollars too. So that is another record that she set<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Disney has won a ton of awards, and I'm sure she'll win awards as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh I'm Sure. Do you like dogs by the way? We used to have a husky ourselves<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A dog is a great friend, but no, I have never had a dog. I enjoy playing with them though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Dogs are awesome, I think anyway, they have like 12 different blood types and apparently there are dog blood drives that exist<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder how the dogs are rewarded at the drive. People get cookies and orange juice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right? I hope that the dogs get a treat at least haha. Did you know that Istanbul has vending machines that reward stray dogs for bringing back trash?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Turks know the value of recycling and that dogs are keen to help for reward.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh for sure! One other thing I didn't know is that dogs and elephants are the only animals that respond to pointing. I want a pet elephant haha!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good luck with that elephant! Anyway I enjoyed chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I enjoyed chatting with you as well! And yes I'll go to local pet store and see if they have elephants in stock haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have a good night<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thanks you too! And watch out for dogs, they're not actually colorblind but they just don't see as many colors as a normal human can<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Ana Gloria Henrequez was from Salvador, trying to get to USA, trying to escape from misery and gangs in El Salvador. She was caught.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I heard about that. I feel horrible for her young daughter<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sorry, Ana Gloria Henrequez is the grandmother, my bad. Ximena is the girl and the mother is Cindy. They said that they never had been caught until Trump's laws.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I'm not sure if that actually made any difference. It just really sucks that even after his executive order ending the separation reuniting families is still so difficult<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I know. I don't know how they are not keeping track of what child belongs to what mother. It's terrible to know that the kids were heard wailing and asking for their family members.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's even crazier that the grandmother could recognize Ximena's voice. I guess since I've never been a parent, I can't comprehend that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You are right. Nobody knows how a parent feels until you are one. Is terrible. I myself I was thinking that I would prefer stay in my country and don't enter the USA at least while they are taking these measures. It would be terrible to lose my son or grandkid.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I understand that. I can also understand wanting to leave when there are gang members on every corner and your little one is just starting school<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I understand that. It has to be very, very difficult, a terrible decision to make. But, me, personally, I would prefer to face it together than not know what happened to them. I don't know, this is a very difficult situation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Plus, she had to leave her dog behind :( Poor little Cookie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, this is such a terrible story. Well, Cindy was robbed twice on the bus. That makes it very difficult to live in a place where you don't have any safety.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I watched an episode of a TV show Shameless recently and it showed an immigrant child separated from his parents in Texas who ended up in foster care in Chicago!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder why people are adopting them. Praying for them. Have you seen Frozen?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Many are adopting the kids because they want to give them safe homes!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, then, thank you very much. Glad to know about this. God bless them. Well, I liked a lot Frozen. Is a fiery Princess.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes, it was great movie. And there's a sequel coming out. I can't wait!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hahaha, liked the graphics, tooo! Do you like dogs? I didn't know that among dogs they have 12 different blood types!!!!!!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, and they even have doggy blood drives ^_^ Did the male love interest have a dog or a horse in Frozen? I can't remember...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, me either. I have a bad memory for some things. lol, but I think I will never forget that Minnie Mouse's name is really Minerva.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really?! Like the Greek goddess? That's fascinating to me. Usually Disney tries to "de-feminize" things rather than feminize them more. Frozen was supposed to be named Snow Queen but boys often don't see movies that have feminine nouns in the title :/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hahahaah that is so much male, lol. Nice to meet you, giving to you an excellent, have a nice day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have a lovely day as well :)<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello my Friend?! Are you a fan of "Frozen" the movie? I personally Looooved it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not seen the movie. Is it animated? Is it for kids?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user both! lol, although Im not a kid so I guess for all haha, I did take my kids to see the movie though. It came out in 2013 and earned over 1 billion dollars<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's great! I must be a wonderful film. It's a disney film, yes? Lots of songs?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is correct! produced by Walt Disney Animated Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It was so cute! They also remade Rapunzel as Tangled, have you seen that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not. I guess the story is basically the same as the fairy tale? Girl with long hair in a tower?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, another of my favorites! How about you? What do you like to watch?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I enjoy watching comedies and dramas. I sometimes watch animated stuff, but not usually.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too, Mysteries or psychological thrillers are great, but animated is one of my favs to watch with kiddos although everyone knows Minnie mouse did you know minnie is short for minerva?! mind blown<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know that. I'm not surprised that Disney makes about $1,110 per second. That's a lot, but reflects the success of the brand.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh my! thats awesome! I guess im not too surprised since the company was founded in 1923!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Almost 100 years old. The Mouse House will soon have a century behind it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, well its maintained its popularity very well! I mean there is a whole subculture dedicated to finding hidden mickey mouse images in all things disney<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've never looked for the hidden images, but I imagine they are there! It's part of the playful nature of the company. It wants to create many layers of fun for the viewers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, and thus I'm not surprised they're so succesful. That's very creative and engaging, and keeps viewers interested and coming back... genius!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's ironic that Walt Disney was fired from his job at a local newspaper in Missouri for ''not being creative enough.'' I guess his genius was not recognized because he was ahead of his time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow! well see, that's why I believe in perfect timing sometimes there are better opportunities ahead of us. amazing!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Are you interested in dogs? They are quite clever. Dogs can learn over a thousand words and reason better than chimps.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! I sometimes Love them better than people... they are just full of Love. Did you know there are 12 different blood types that a dog may have and dog can donate blood at dog blood drives! I love them even more!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's great! They also have 'eureka moments' and enjoy the experience of solving a problem to obtain a reward. Much like people!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes and they understand by pointing! How cool is that? Thats how I get my dog to get my slippers! Anyway, fun chatting with you! Namaste :)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have a good evening!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user you too<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user I have never heard of Fanfest,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey! What is FanFest? lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess its where the hall of famers meet, At first I thought it said hall of farmers, lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ok. I honestly never heard of. Do you play video games?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, But I did not know they were first designed for the military<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It could be for training purpose. I'm wondering why Australia has more banned games than China... It means some US games also banned... It's quite strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user it is like kids in korea being banned playing games after 12<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent after or before 12? If after 12, why is it so? I used to play a lot when I was child. I'm not surprised that video games make more money abbually than all films from Hollywood.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user But would you categorize them as an art form?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Interesting question. I don't think this is any sort of art. It could be kind of sport. I more support this point of view. How about you? What's your opinion?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I really not did get into them, But I would consider them an art form<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It could be. At the same time it would be easy to define popularity of such art. For example, it could be a reason why the rating system was involved in video games.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe I will just go to the fanfest and try the Pitching tunnels, can you throw well<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ok. Do you watch or play any sport? Like softball or baseball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I only play have you heard of any of these players like, Davey Johnson?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. He played in 1970s, right? Or maybe 1960s... I don't remember.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no clue, But I love the name Rollie Fingers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Baseball is fun to watch. I like it. However, I always have difficulties to hit a ball hahaha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user maybe you should go to the show you can get a medal Maybe<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Medal would be too much significant achievement. The Chicago Cubs were the first to win back-to-back world series and haven't won since. My luck is about the same lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thank you for your time but I must go now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have a good day! Thanks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user bye<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent bye!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey how are you? Did you see the FanFest in Miami last year by chance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't see that. It's interesting that 23 former Nationals attended it though, did you see it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yah, it was pretty cool. I didn't catch who the olympic gold medalists were, did you? They said there were two of them there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't catch their names. But I know that a lot of gold medalist attended as well as some people from the US Olympic softball team, I don't watch sports or the Olympics so I can't say that I know any of the names LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me neither, I wish I knew more about the olympians, they're so elite. Hard for them to get a lot of recognition though. You play video games by chance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I play video games somewhat, used to play Maurice a kid but I don't play that many these days. What about you? I'm just glad that I didn't grow up in South Korea because apparently playing a video game after midnight if your under 16 is illegal<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, I would have never of guessed that. I played a lot of video games growing up, I think there is a lot of benefit to them. I play Fortnite now, and I'm in my 30s lol. Do you still play?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent LOL I have heard of the game but I have never played it. I do know that they did a study and apparently as a planet we play about 3 billion hours of video games a week so I definitely should be playing more perhaps haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I could definitely see that. What were your favorite video games? Jane McGongiai was the game designer behind that study, pretty cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well I really liked the Nintendo 64 and I also like the original Xbox, it's interesting that I played a Toy Story game back in the day and it wasn't actually Tom Hanks who did the voice but his brother Jim Hanks<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I'm surprised they have such similar voices. I went the Sega to Playstation route, still rocking the PS4, no Toy Story game though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah the PlayStation 4 is cool. I'm just glad that we called him video games and not their original name which was the cathode ray tube Amusement device LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like video game a lot more than Cathode Ray Tube Amusement Devices lol, dang military always overcomplicating things.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree with you. Did you ever play the video game LittleBigPlanet or Harry Potter? Apparently the same person did the narration in both of those video games, his name is Stephen Fry<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Stephen Fry from Top Gear?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm not sure if it's the same guy, I don't know Top Gear personally, but it could be, do you ever play softball by the way or watch it on TV?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hear Stephen Fry's name all the time, he must be super famous in the UK. I don't, you going to spit some softball knowledge my way?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha yes I can do that. It's interesting that the softball is bigger than a baseball because it is about 12 in in circumference, I've never played softball but that seems like a really big ball lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yah, it's quite a bit larger than a baseball for sure, I've never seen a softball video game though, have you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I've never seen one actually. It's interesting though that the average salary for a professional softball player is at most $6,000 LOL definitely you're not retiring on that money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, definitely not! Anyways, I am going to get going, great chatting with you, take care and have a great night!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it's been an excellent chat! And make sure to try out a baseball video game once in awhile, they are actually pretty fun<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good! You? Are you into Fiction at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A little and I prefer non-fiction. Do you like it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I read mainly non fiction too, but I can get in to some of it. I think it is cool that there is a wiki that ranks fictional characters according to their powers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I find that useful too! Edgar allen poe wrote about a cyborg, the oldest example of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that is kind of neat. I thought that was a more modern invention.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too. Julius Ceasar wrote fan fiction too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. Id like to see what came out of his mind!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess it was about Hercules and Oedipus. George RR MArtin would not have liked that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, he things it is copyright infringement. I dont exactly agree with that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't either. Imagine being the racist judge who tried to ban a comic book because of a black guy in it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is really kind of ridiculous. I cant even believe that happens.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know. I cannot believe people want to upload their minds to computers!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is odd. I dont want my innermost thoughts to be displayed anywhere.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There's a reason I buried my skeletons deep! I wonder if it runs on water like the Russians did in 1936?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that is pretty fascinating. I wonder why we arent exploring that technology more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They were too busy building a 16-bit computer using minecraft blocks!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I cant believe that was even possible. I thought minecraft was just a game. That is crazy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right? I wonder who built it too? I wish my son could do that stuff. But not smoking. Smoking near an apple computer voids the warranty.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good thing I never smoked near mine. They think it makes it a "biohazard"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed! Nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey there, do you go out and vote during elections?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello there, I do like to get out and vote, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user me too. do you know way back then though how people were appointed in ancient athens?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess they were appointed by a lottery of some type. I think they believed that elections would lead to an oligarchy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder how that would work today though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I don't think that would work very well, but then again, maybe it would work better, who knows.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah there is no knowing there. In Nevada they have a none of these candidate options in the ballot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I heard that there were some wild results in the Nevada elections this year.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know about that one. not a lot of people seems to vote though since less than 63 people go out and vote<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Isn't that pretty sad, I guess it hasn't breached that 63% barrier in the last 100 years!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes it is because it is a right and we are not using it to its best.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is true. Did you know that the taller candidate has won the presidential election 75% of the time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hahaa I really wonder if that has any correlation with how people perceive the candidates<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I guess it must, because that is just way too high to just be chance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user did you hear that international electoral observers were blocked from polls in nine states in 2012<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't hear that, I wonder why they stopped doing that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user maybe they did not trust them, i have no idea. do you know when republicans and democrats started using red and blue?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I don't, but probably more than 100 years ago or so, do you know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was actually as recently as 2000 so not very long ago.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really, wow I am really bad at politics I guess.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know it either until now. It was nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Poetry is an art that is getting forgotten<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is one of those that I feel like I don't always understand, but love to hear the analysis of and see how deep it can get. For instance, there is a poem where if you read it one way it's sad, but read it in reverse and it's actually inspirational!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I bet that poem required a lot creativity, wrtting a poem with completely different meanings, oposing genres, genius<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There is one guy that wrote a poem of over 220 words in palindrome (where it is the same backwards and forwards -- like "nurses run")!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds really hard, did you ever read one of Edgar Allan Poe's poems?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I read a couple. I feel like I know them so well because of horror and Halloween stories. I know "The Raven" was pretty popular. Do you think he made a lot of money with that poem?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not really in fact he only made $9 for the publication of that poem, seems really underpaid<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! That is crazy! I hope he had a good day job. Maybe just regular fiction works would have been better financially.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hope he did as well, the raven is like his most popular poem and selling it for $9, business was slow, he also wrote cyborg fiction,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's pretty cool. If he'd had a black character in it in the 1950s that was worthy of banning a science fiction comic!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds really racist, theres a wiki rank of fictional characters according to power and abilities, I wonder who is the strongest hero<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe like a Superman type or Hercules? Funny thing, future emperor Julius Caesar actually wrote Hercules based fan fiction when he was younger. I wonder what that was like.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet it was pretty good, it was about Hercules and Oedipus, I wonder if he was good.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Game of Thrones author, George RR Martin, might not have cared for it. Maybe Caesar would get a pass, but Martin doesn't care for fan fiction at all!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I heard he hated fan fiction, he doesnt care about it at all so changing the subject a bit do you use computers a lot?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It seems like that is what I do the vast majority of my day. I'm not ready to upload my mind to a computer or memory stick like transhumanists, but it is like an extension of me some days.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree theres so much we dont understand about the human mind, Transhumanist must be missing key elements of the human essence.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Are you a PC or a Mac? Be warned that being a smoker an an apple computer user could actually void the warranty as they see it as a biohazard if someone smokes by it. I am neither, but that's beside the point.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have a mac and I dont smoke but its good to know, seems kind of random to void a warranty because of that,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they should have tried to make a water-based computer, which apparently the Russians were able to make in 1936. I do wonder what sort of "computer" that was though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if they still make computers that ran on water, not sure is the best idea to mix water with tech<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like to use computers?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I love computers. I can't imagine my life without one. In 1936 the Russians made one that ran on water.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. If you think about it, a lot of power comes from water.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes such as hydropower. Apple computer's seem to be quite sensitive because if you smoke near an Apple Computer it voids the warranty.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. That doesn't sound true, but I wonder if it is the same for the iphone?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know what you mean? There is a group called transhumanist's that want to upload their minds to computers and memory sticks!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds pretty cool. I would do it, would you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know sounds kind of creepy to me! Almost like the work of fiction! Like something from someones imagination!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it would be pretty cool. Do you play minecraft?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have in the past. Kind of amazing someone built a working computer using only the mine craft building blocks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that is pretty crazy. I'm not even sure how that is possible?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me neither. I also don't know how the space shuttles general-purpose computer runs on 1 Mb of RAM.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure either. It seems like a small amount of ram.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it does. Do you like reading fiction? I kind of like reading things that are not based on history or facts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not a huge fan of fiction. Did you know there is a wiki that ranks fictional characters based on powers?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would like to see that. Edgar Allan Poe wrote the oldest known example of cyborgs in fiction.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be pretty cool. I wonder what the best fictional character is on the wiki?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I bet superman is up there. Probably Thor too. Julius Caesar wrote fan fiction of Hercules in his youth. He definitely got started early.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Superman definitely has to be up there if not number one. Well nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A judge in the 1950s tried to ban a work of science fiction because it featured a black character. Glad times have changed. Nice talking to you too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chatting with you too!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi and good afternoon. Are you a poetry fan? It has a long history dating back to prehistoric times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, how are you? i am not a big fan of poetry. Are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it's fun to read sometimes. The origins are more interesting for me. Early poems in the Eurasian content evolved from folksongs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I dont much about poetry. that is interesting. i guess poetry and songs would be closely related.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I suppose they would. They tried to define poetry in ancient Greece such as Aristotle's poetics. It focused on the use of speech in rhetoric, drama, song, and comedy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess poetry is spoken and written, so it is related to many arts. Do you have a favorite poet?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it's funny when comedians do poetry. I don't really have a favorite poet. Demetri Martin wrote a 224 word palindrome!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that must have taken him quite a while. 224 words, backwards and forwards? my head hurts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes mine hurts just thinking about it. Edgar Allan Poe is another classic poet and he only received $9 for the publication of his poem the Raven.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He probably spent it on drugs and booze too. the man was so decadent, but maybe it inspired him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah you probably did. I love the hobbit too. Most of the character names were taken out of an old Icelandic poem called dvergatal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, Tolkien loved old languages. he studied them and learned to speak some of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is so fascinating, I love his works of fiction. I like fiction because it is so imaginative. What is your favorite genre?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like non fiction because i want to keep up with what is going on in the world.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's good and definitely practical. The author of game of thrones despises fan fiction because he says it is copyright infringement and not a good exercise for aspiring writers. I kind of see where he's coming from.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the fans should try to write their own stories, not rehash someone else's.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Exactly. I think it's so funny authors used have to write on old typewriters. Now they have computers which can basically carry out any sequence of arithmetic or logical operations.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the typewriter changes the relationship between the writer and the prose. i figure that the computer makes my writing different.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes probably mine as well now that you mention it. If you have an Apple computer make sure you don't smoke near it because it voids the warranty. Very nice talking with you this afternoon.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What about vaping? is vaping ok? LOL Yes, i enjoyed chatting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha ha that is very important information I need to know too! Have a good afternoon.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello there, do you use Amazon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I like Amazon, I like their movie site and their purchase website.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I use their delivery service quite a bit, especially around Christmas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Amazon is a super large company, did you know chief executive own the Washington Post?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I didn't know that. Do you know how much the first ever Amazon purchase was for?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I don't know, do you have any idea, if yes how much was the first purchase?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it was for $27.95 and it was for the rights to name a building after themselves.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, I will always respect Amazon, because they offer thousandth of people employment rather or not they except it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they do, do you know that the US postal service has a contract with Amazon to deliver on Sundays?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't know that, but I notice they Improve their delivery services to only a few days before receiving their packages.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they do. On a different note, do you know much about sharks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I don't, but I know there are different kind of sharks and they behave in different ways. I like seen them on TV, but not in real life.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I only know a little bit, I do know that because they have no bones on land, a sharks weight would crush its own body.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent most people think that all sharks are killer sharks, but I read that all shark aren't killer sharks. Have you seen the movies about sharks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, just tv shows about them. I think the Greenland shark and 5 gilled sharks are the most interesting. The Greenland sharks live for a crazy amount of time!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes you are right, I didn't know sharks didn't have ribs. I wonder how they upstand attacks from other animals from the waters?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah isn't that interesting. I guess they also evolved earlier than dinosaurs as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent every show played on TV, always wonder how dolphins kill sharks? I notice dolphins always attack from the side.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I think you are right on that. Dolphins are so interesting to me on how they communicate with each other.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know sharks can be trained to bark like a dog?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really? That is crazy, I wonder who thought of even trying that. Well it was good talking with you, I hope you have a good night.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello friend, Do you like horses?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. Did you know horses are able to sleep standing up and lying down?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that is cool. Did you know that the horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small multi-toed creature, Eohippus, into the large single-toed animal of today?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That makes it even more impressive that there are over 300 breeds of horses in the world today.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, humans began domesticating horses around 4000 BC, and their domestication is believed to have been widespread by 3000 BC. Some species were domesticated but then some are still living in the wild as feral horses.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I just heard that Icelandic horses have a fifth gear. Horses are simply fascinating.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I agree. There is an extensive specialized vocabulary used to described equine-related concepts, covering everything from anatomy to life stages, size, colors, markings, breeds, locomotion, and behavior.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What do you think about sharks? Did you know they're sister species to rays?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, fascinating fact!. And sharks can be trained like dogs to bark.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I kinda feel bad for them. They have no rib cages so if they ever end up on land, they get crushed by the weight of their body.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, sad indeed. Sharks even evolved earlier than dinosaurs and trees.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have you ever seen the white shark cafe? It's where white sharks meet in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I've never seen it but I have heard about it. Did you know that not just dolphins rescue sailors, but sharks too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did know that. Animals cease to amaze me. We have to protect them at all costs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Do you do any online shopping on Amazon.com? Amazon sells almost everything from A to Z.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. Did you know Amazon started as an online bookstore?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, and then they later diversified to sell video downloads, MP3 downloads, audiobooks downloads, software, video games, electronics, apparel, furniture, food, toys, and jewelry. Wow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have you read anything about Amazon's proposed second HQ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I did know that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos built a clock into a mountain that should run for 10,000 years, though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did know. I don't really understand a lot of what Jeff Bezos does. That money could've been used better elsewhere.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That could be. Maybe, he makes up for it by keeping his employees healthy. Amazon warehouse workers walk between 7 and 15 minutes a day as part of their shift. Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey! I've been reading a lot lately. Do you read any fiction or poetry?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi! Hm. I don't read much fiction or poetry, but I've been exposed to a lot of it in my lifetime. Do you have any favorites? I've tried my hand at creating both, and failed miserably! It's tough! It's an art form, that I just can't do!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've been more into poetry lately. It's fascinating that it's been around since prehistorical times, with hunting poetry in Africa.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh it's fascinating, for sure! Even more so to me since it eludes my abilities. heh. I've read that there is a poem which when read forwards is depressing, and when read backwards is inspiring! I'd really like to read it, but I can't find anything more about it, as of yet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is fascinating. Similarly, Demetri Martin once wrote a 224 word palindrome poem.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh wow! Now there is a poem, I forgot that I loved! The Raven, by Edgar Allen Poe. It's been so long since I've heard it! I mean like 20+ years! Something about The Raven rap-tap-tapping on his door, or floor? Haha. I heard he only got $9 for the publication of that poem! Go figure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow! Just $9?! Somebody got a bargain! Did you know Edgar Allen Poe also wrote the oldest known example of a cyborg in fiction? Pretty diverse author, isn't he?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah? What an interesting person he must have been, in general! I don't even know what Javanese is , but apparently their alphabet when recited in order, is a poem. The ABC's are pretty poetic to me, now that we recite them so sing-songy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder what kind of poems a computer could come up with? Computers do everything else, they can control microwave ovens, remote controls, robots...why not write poetry, right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha! I'm slightly certain that soon, they will write poetry. Computers have come such a long way! I found something really interesting, in 1936 the Russians made a computer that ran off of water! I wonder what went wrong with that. Maybe electricity and water wasn't the best idea?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Computers can be fairly delicate, I suppose. Smoking near apply computers voids the warranty by making it "a biohazard". What in the world could that mean?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hm.. Yeah I know that smoking near them, just really clogs everything up, kind of taking dust and mixing it with the tarry nicotine and it creates a huge mess and can break a computer and completely stop the fans and such, but bio-hazard? I'm interested to learn why that is. Kinda scary!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Someone built a working 16 bit computer using nothing but the basic Minecraft building blocks. I wonder what kind warranty that one has?!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha! Woah! There's a thing called transhumanists I guess, and they want to upload their brains to computers and memory sticks! I don't want to do that! One lifetime is okay by me. I can only imagine the torment of a mind having to just live for possibly forever! Yikes!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree! What if people tried to read my mind's unpublished poetry! No thank you! I have some interesting fan fiction in my head, just like Julius Caesar wrote fan fiction of Hercules and Oedipus. But that's private!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha! I am quite happy keeping my thoughts to myself! It sounds like a scary sci-fi movie to me! My computer brain gets arrested and imprisoned for eternity in 100 years for some crazy new law! No thank you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user How much memory would it take to store all of us, anyway? Maybe less than I think. A space shuttle can run on 1mb of RAM.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's crazy! Precisely why I'm not an astronaut! I wouldn't want to do crazy things such as trust my life to 1mb of ram!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha! There's a good science fiction book, The Martian, which has some interestin parts about computers and space shuttles. That author had a pretty good imagination.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Woah! In the 50's a judge tried to ban a sci-fi comic because it featured a black character! Thank goodness, we've come a long way from that hatefulness. But still we have a ways to go, before things are truly equal, really for all races.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thank goodness, indeed. I agree with you, though, there is still progress to be made, and I think reading diverse fiction and poetry can help people see things from other perspectives.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh absolutely! Really all art forms and most certainly the internet is going to bring humanity together on a much more even playing field. It was really nice talking with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello! Are you an Amazon Prime member?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I am and love it! That two day delivery really comes in handy!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It really does! Even Sunday delivery rocks especially since Amazon contracted with the USPS.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I think that was good for the USPS! How would you like to have a building named after yourself for being a customer and only spend $27.95?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If only I knew about it years ago!!!!! I didn't realize they own IMDB as well!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, I didn't either! Thinking the amazon warehouse workers don't need a gym membership with walking 7-15 miles each day on a shift! Omg!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would be the fittest man alive working there haha. They ought to use horses there! Especially Icelandic horses that can speedwalk!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha, ha, ha, Yes!! Good idea, I love horses, Guess you can't ride your horses to school on, no vehicle day or you can get suspended.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I know I saw that two high school students did that! I remember kids would drive their tractors to my high school!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh really, Wow! Did you know Clint Eastwood is allergic to horses, after riding all those horses in the movies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You would have never guessed since he rode like hundreds of them! He should have rode sharks instead!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, I guess sharks have been around a long time. Makes sense they were here before the trees and dinosaurs!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Crazy to think that is one long time! I didn't know they could be trained like dogs to bark!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that either. I would like to hear that. I will have to look that up!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They already sound a lot smarter than me haha. I always wondered why dalmatians were used at firehouses.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, isn't it good they helped calm and protect the horses back then. Aren't Lipizzaner horses beautiful!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I think it was! It all makes sense to me now haha. They really are. I don't know many animals or things that can change colors of their skin!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it only takes about 6 years, and give great classical dressage performances!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would love to see them in real life! I'm good with sharks though although I just snorkeled with some last month!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really, very cool! I love to snorkel too! The coral reefs are so spectacular!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They really are! Well it was nice chatting with you have a good night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey there, heard anything interesting lately? I sure have, did you know Amazon contributed 38 billion to the city of Seattle's economy just by being there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, no I did not know. It looks like amazon means exciting news. They are now looking for a site for a second headquarters!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's great! Not everyone thinks so though, Amazon can come with difficulties in transportation and shoot up the housing costs of whatever city it's in.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They do make an impact wherever they go. I found interesting that there is a building named after the first amazon.com customer<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard they're considering Washington as a place for their 2nd HQ, wherever they put the building is going to get a huge boost! I heard they're even considering New York!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Also Los angeles, atlanta, and Dallas. they are looking for as much as 8 million sq ft<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Don't forget about their original HQ, it was founded by Jeff Bexos on July 5 1994. And it's the largest internet retailer in the world!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent An in the US they are the most valuable company after Apple and Microsoft, they have really grow so much!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's probably thanks to their hard-workers! I heard they walk 7-15 miles each day as apart of their shift.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that is a lot!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And the CEO Jeff Bezos built a clock into a mountain that should run for 10,000 years! I guess he has the money to do so!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent We can't deny he is full of great ideas. i did not know that IMBD is owned by amazon!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me neither! Amazon seems to have a lot of power, they have a contract with the post-office to make sure our packages get delivered even on Sunday!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that is neat. Did you know they started with being an online bookstore?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's incredible, they also have a publishing arm known as Amazon publishing for people who want to publish their eBooks through them!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that is good! Hey, do you like animals?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love animals, my favorite is the Shark. Did you know they can be trained just like dogs? Talk about man's best friend.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Di you know that they meet in the pacific ocean, in a place named "white Shark cafe". I love coffee but I would try not to end up there!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Crazy, but what's even crazier is that Shark's have no rib cages! If they were on land they'd be crushed by the weight of their own body.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent We are all afraid and even terrified of sharks, but it looks like they can rescue sailors!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's probably because they evolved earlier than Dinosaurs, nature's perfect killer!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Crazy! there a very small ones. there is one called small dwarf lantershark. and it has a lenght of 17 cms. well it was so nice talking to you!!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good morning.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent good morning<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you keep up with the election?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, but moderately. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes, about the same. I know there are the republican and democrat party.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the only election that I follow is the Presidential Election<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same here. I don't follow local as I do not live in the same state more than 3 years at a time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see. Do you know who has a higher authority than a state's governor?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think state senator. DId you know there hasn't been a president that wasn't a republican or democrat since 1853<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very interesting. Was this President an independence in your opinion?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think so. I dont know if any green party have ever been elected. Did you know all presidents with beards have been republican.?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Just know about this fact by now. Which party do you think will win the next Presidential Electin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think the republicans will win. Do you think someone will run against Trump on the republican ballot next time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe the current Texas's governor, but I do not remember his name<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ancient Athens did their appointment by lottery instead of election.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is weird, but true<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Beatles song "come together" was written for a California governor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There somehow was a connection between Beatles band and California politics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know North Dakotas governor declared martial law in 1934 and seceded from the U.S<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know about this fact. I am wondering if it is still in effect. By the way, nice chatting with you<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too. I do not think its in effect though.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi are you a republican?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I am not. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I am not, I am a Libertarian. Maybe one of us will win soon, it hasn't happened since 1853.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well I am just hoping Trump doesn't win a second term next year, but with how corrupt everything is now it is looking like a very likely outcome.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do too, I don't particularly like him. Did you vote last election<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did, I voted Hillary even though I didn't really care for her either, but she was a much better choice than what we ended up with.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, I voted third party. I was part of the problem, I wanted a 3rd party to win because it has been years!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well Bernie Sanders just announced his 2020 run, so if he actually makes it onto the ballot this year I will vote for him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, he got taken out of the running in 2016 by hillary. I am voting BIDEN!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If Biden decided to run in 2020 i would probably choose him over Bernie, I always liked him when he was VP.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, and he would take Trump down.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not sure anyone can take Trump down at this point, with all the rumored election rigging and ties to Russia, I personally think he will just cheat to win again and no one will do anything about it, just like these last 4 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right, I figured the same thing! I don't think he's good and if he wins I think we know for sure it was rigged.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well one problem is the election is based on the electoral college more than actual peoples votes. If we could get rid of the electoral college and get back to the popular vote, like it should be, he wouldn't even have won the first time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure. They should do it like athens did back in the day. Use a lottery system to prevent oligarchy! I think he is cheating the system<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep and nothing is being done about it. Bill Clinton cheated on his wife and every one through a fit and started impeachment proceedings, but Trump supposedly gets away with treason and it really grinds my gears.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, and cheating on his wife a bunch of times!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah Clinton was not a good husband but he was a pretty darn good president, I will never understand why his personal life mattered to so many people, and then when it looks like we have an actual traitor in the seat no one seems to care.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user for sure, people made good money and the economy was great! Good chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah same to you, good chat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user bye!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, do you follow politics much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi I do from time to time, it is hard to escape them all together. Did you know every republican president has had a beard?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh pretty cool fact. And since 1853 the president has been either a republican or a democrat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow pretty dominant. THey did not start using the colors red and blue until 2000, I thought it was earlier than that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it does feel late, you are right. Did you hear about Truman and his refusal to take a photo on the dumbo ride?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah he just id not want to be associated with Republicans in any way, shape or form and the dumbo is their logo<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yup pretty much. DO you know how officials were elected in ancient athens?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes by lottery, and I wonder how that would work nowadays probably a mess<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hahah agreed. In Nevada you have the options to not vote for any of the candidates, I like that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too, I wish it were in all the states. Too bad not a lot of people show up at the polls though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I hope we can go past that almost 63%. We need to all vote<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I agree. Since 1990 it seems the taller candidate has been winning the election. Coincidence?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hmm interesting one. DO you know what the Beatles song Come together was written for?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it was for the California governor Timothy Leary in 1969<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that one. When Schwarzenegger was governor of California he did not live in Sacramento and commuted ever day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But he did not have it rough, he travelled by private jet 3 hours each day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good for him I guess. North Dakota governor declared martial law in 1934<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes and then seceded from the US. WOw<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user In Texas, the first female governor was elected before other stated had ratified the amendment<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice, seems they were a bit more ahead of time/. Ralph Lawrence Carr was the only governor that did not agree with the internment of japane americans during WWII<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Must have been tough being the only guy.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user The Republican Party is really popular in the states do you agree?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Unfortunately yes. It is not like the republican party of old times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah a lot of things have changed, funny anecdote with Truman and Dumbo though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a good one. Poor Dumbo. He probably didnt realize what was happening. They should have brought out Eeyore instead.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know right Dumbo didnt have the fault lol, I bet he isnt a Republican either,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably not. He might wear blue for all we know.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So the red and blue colors, seem like they have been around forever but its a recent thing from the year 2000<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is surprising! I feel like they have always been there as far back as I can remember.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It sure seems like a lot longer, so elections are really important Im just glad we have that choice many countries dont<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very true, which is why it is surprising election turnout hasnt gotten above 63%<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And thats how we end up with leaders like Trump lol, also the taller candidate wins 75% of the time, interesting stat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So we need to find someone taller than him for 2020. Lets start searching now. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user We sure do lol, did you know Nevada is the only state with the option ''None of these''<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They have that? Ok... im kinda jealous now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They do, seems like the best option at times lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It really does.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think one of the best governors is Schwarzenegger would be cool to have the terminator as president one day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It really would1<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He is a great actor but also a great politician, he has done a lot for California and is a really popular guy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He really has. Did you know he commuted by private jet each day, 3 hours!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds like a really busy guy, anyways its time for lunch, its been great chatting with you but Im taking a break, thanks a lot<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What did you think of the last couple elections?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it has been great for the country. people have come to realize the power of the vote.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a great point. I want to keep seeing more and more voter turnout. It hasn't been more than 62.8 percent in 100 years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the vote should be mandatory. then people would see the power of the ballot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, I am sure other countries do that. I don't think we should go back to how ancient athens did it, do you know how?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i think they used a lottery. that would help avoid power falling into certain hands consistenly.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yea and hoping the lottery would not allow an oligarchy. I wonder if that worked or not<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent it probably slowed it down. officials can still bribed, even randomly elected ones.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea you're right. I am sure it was rigged. How do you like Republicans?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent well, they can be bribed after the fact once elected. The country has shifted farther right, so they are pretty far right now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea that is a good point. is your governer part of that far right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no, i dont think so. i think that the far right is usually in the south.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea I think so too, our governor is republican but not a far right one. There was only one governor who opposed internment of japanese people in ww2<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, during wartime it is hard to stop people from acting on hate. i expect that could happen again soon if there is war with chna.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user for sure, I am sure something big will happen in our lifetime. It is bound to happen. I still can't believe schwarzenegger was governor<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent he had notoriety to launch a campaign. if you are rich, famous, tall, etc you can run for govt. i figure the future is all about marketing, not content.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was the terminator! That is all he needed! lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, the governator. he was not a good speaker but people knew him. he didnt get much done because he didnt understand politics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, I would have voted for him if I was in california, even though he ruined the state.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent people that should run government do not run for office. if they run for office, we probably dont want them in there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree with you. It was so nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user No. I think it's so interesting that the Republican Party is referred to as the Grand old party.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. I wonder why they gave themselves that moniker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I'm not sure. But every US president with a beard has been Republican.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True. I also heard that Hillary Clinton was president of the young republicans when she was in college.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh that's interesting especially given the fact that she just ran Democrat. The red and blue colors for Republicans and Democrats only started in 2000.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That really got me. I thought they were always around representing the parties.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah me too but it sounds like they used to use animals more. Truman seem to take that very seriously especially at Disneyland.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard... poor Dumbo. He probably didnt even understand.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha ha yeah I bet he was so confused. It's funny to think that ride has been around since 1957.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It really is, it was my favorite as a kid, much to the detriment of my parents. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha thats funny. Apparently officials in ancient athens were appointed by lottery because they believe elections would lead to oligarchy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well elections also lead to a dog being elected mayor... so I dont know what is worse.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha yes good point. I hope that one day the voter turnout for presidential elections will breach 63%.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. Did you know the faster blinker has lost every election since 1980. Who even calculates that data.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that is definitely an odd stat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There is even a cat that placed 3rd in the Virginia Senate election. How can animals even run? That is just crazy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha i guess you can vote for anything. Like blinking, another odd stat is the tallest candidate has won in 75% of elections.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So we need to look for a slow blinker and a tall person for 2020.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they will no doubt win! Nevada is actually the only state to have a "none of these" candidates voting option.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is brilliant, especially if it forces new candidates.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea more states should do it maybe. More states should elect women too. Texas elected their first female governor before some states even ratified the 19th amendment!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you follow politics?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. I just learned that the Republican Party was founded by anti-slavery activists. Surprising.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never knew that. There hasn't been a US president who wasn't a Republican or Democrat since 1853.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a good thing! Did you know in 1957 President Harry Truman visited Disneyland and refused to be photographed on the Dumbo ride so he wouldn't be associated with the Republican Party?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's funny! Consistent use of the red and blue colors for Republicans and Democrats started in 2000. Could have swore they used those colors before then.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? I thought so too! Did you know Nevada is the only state to have a "none of these candidates" voting option for Presidential elections?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that. Every US president with a beard has been a Republican. Interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Huh. I never noticed! Hard to believe voter turnout for US Presidential elections hasn't breached 62.8% in the last 100 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's an amazing statistic. Wow. Since 1900 the taller candidate has won the US presidential election 75 percent of the time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh that is funny! During the 2012 US elections international electoral observers were blocked from the polls in 9 states.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. Do you ever vote for the governor in your state? I do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. Can you believe when Arnold Schwarzenegger was governor of CA he never lived in Sacramento, instead he commuted 3 hours every day by private jet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Didn't know that. I bet that would get old though flying like that every day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is certainly a lot. Did you know the Beatles song Come Together was actually written for Tim Leary's 1969 CA Governor campaign.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I had no idea. Wonder why a British band at the time would write a song for an American election? Interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very! Did you know Ralph Lawrence Carr was the only Governor to oppose the internment of Japanese Americans during WW2?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that. I've heard about when they did that though to those people.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's something else, that's for sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user In 1934 I see that North Dakota's governor declared martial law and seceded from the US. I'm learning all kinds of new things today.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! Well, Texas elected their first female Governor, the second in the nation, before some states even ratified the 19th amendment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Looks like Texas was ahead of the times! Thanks for chatting!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you aware that the taller candidate for president has won 75% of the elections of them time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello - it doesn't surprise me. I've even heard that taller people in interviews for jobs tend to get the job more often.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Crazy, is that true?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not sure how true it is, but that's what I've been told. Did you know Hillary Clinton was president of young republicans in college?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not surprised. Did you know Arnold traveled 3 hours a day to Sacramento when he was the governor?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that's crazy. I can't imagine traveling that far for work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me either. Did you know Tim Leary ran for governor of CA?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know that, but that's interesting. I didn't know congress has played a democrat vs. republican baseball game every year since 1909.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did, it must be one boring game!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea I bet it is a very boring game. A cat named Hank placed third in a Virginia senate election once before.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I can believe it. Did you know Nevada is the only stat that has a none of these candidates as a voting option?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow I didn't know that about Nevada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, must be an interesting state to live in. Have you ever visited there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have been to Las Vegas twice. What about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I've been. But I don't think a majority of the people that visit there vote.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, I'm not too sure on that. I saw that all elections conducted in Oregon are conducted by mail.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. It rains a lot in Oregon, have you ever visited?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Never been to Oregon, but not a state I think I would want to live in with all of the rain they get.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of rainy states to be honest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me either. Did you know the government of Oklahoma has an Oklahoma shaped pool?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, weird. Is a hew a professional swimmer?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you watch many movies in the theaters?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I love watching movies! Summer was considered a bad time to release a movie in the theater because of low sales until steven spielberg's jaws.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Steven spielberg still makes millions from star wars off a bet with george lucas they made in 1977!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha thats awesome, I wonder what the bet was.Steven spielberg played the clarinet in the jaws soundtrack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was wondering the same! After filming the goonies steven spielberg flew the entire cast to hawaii and surprised director richard donner with a cookout.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Amazing! Thats so nice. When steven spielberg rode jurassic park the ride on opening day he requested that he was let off before the 84 foot drop<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Too funny! Speaking of entertainers that make a lot of money, With over $8.5 billion worldwide film earnings, tom hanks is the highest all-time box office star.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He is very talented. Disney considered shutting down their animation studio after sleeping beauty was a box office failure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good thing they didn't! Disney's "treasure planet" was one of the most expensive box office flops of all time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, I read that recently, I never saw it. The movie trojan wars with a budget of $15,000,000 has earned only $309 in box office<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yikes! The silence of the lambs came out on valentine's day in 1991 and had a box office of over $270 million.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That movie was great and creepy at the same time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Super creepy. Spielberg became a household name as the director of Jaws.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know that More than 80 percent of the earth's natural forests have already been destroyed<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's sad. About 71% of Earth's surface is covered with water.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Also, When earth was first formed a day was only 5.5 hours long. Such short days! i wouldnt mind going to work for only 2 hours lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be great! If earth's entire history was viewed as a 24 hour period, humans would only represent 1 minute and 17 seconds.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Mind blown! I love these facts! In september of 2010, the united nations appointed official ambassador to extraterrestrials in they case they would ever make contact with earth<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What?! Thats funny. Earth formed over 4.5 billion years ago.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The earth is old! Earth will be virtually helium-free by the end of the 21st century<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. The majority of Earth's polar regions are covered in ice, including the Antarctic ice sheet and the sea ice of the Arctic ice pack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent was good talking to you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you ever watch ET?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I did. It was the movie when I was a kid!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Seems like Steven Spielberg is trying to return to his glory with Ready Player One. Have you seen that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I haven't see it. Have you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have't either. At the premiere screening the sound cut out. But instead of booing, the audience member cheers and makes their own sound effects.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well that was sure nice of them to do that, I'm sure Spielberg appreciated it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right, usually that would be embarrassment. That was cool of the audience. Ready Player One is another childlike adventure where virtual reality dominates.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It sounds cool, my grandkids would probably like it. I remember when I first saw Jaws, it scared me to death!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I know what you mean. Ready Player one takes place on an Earth where people go to VR to escape their real life problems. I can totally imagine this happening in the future.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent OMG, goodness, alot of people would def get hooked on that! Do you watch alot of movies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't really though I like Disney movies. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too, I love Disney movies. I read that Disney considered shutting down their animation studio after Sleeping Beauty flopped.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't even know that Sleeping Beauty was a flop! Treasure Planet was also a Disney movie and was the most expensive box office flops of all times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did know that Treasure Planet was a big time flop. I can't remember anybody that saw it saying they liked it. I read that Tom Hanks is the highest all time box office star.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Would you see the Silence of the Lambs on Valentine's day? That's the day it came out in 1991. It made over $270 million in box office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I remember seeing it, but it wasn't on Valentine's day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Trojan Wars on the other hand ws a failure. It had a 15 million budget and earned only $309 in box office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's pitiful!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that is quite sad. Another sad thing is even though humans are destroying the earth, if earth's history was viewed as a 24 hour period, humans would only represent one minute and 17 seconds.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Awesome, I read somewhere that when the Earth was formed a day was only 5 1/2 hours.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I can't even get enough done in 24 hours!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi Turker, are you familiar with Steven Spielberg?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey. Steven Spielberg is one of the most popular directors. Seen so many of his films.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes you are right, have you seen E.T? if yes, did you like the movie, I know it's an old movie.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it is an old movie. I like older movies. I remember when the game for the atari came out, they literally had to mass dump the product in a field somewhere.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I heard about that, but I wonder if the atari could have been recycle, just to think about all those Items were destroyed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. its funny that he made all these movies here for all humans to see. Here on planet earth. A 4.5 million year old rock. I wonder if aliens seen our movies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes you are right, I really like all the Jurassic Parks, I have watched those movies several times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Dude!!! Tell me about it. Its crazy that Tom hanks made so much money. Making 8,5 billion worldwide and wasnt in any of the sagas. not in star wars and not in jurassic park.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes Tom Hanks made a lot of money also, did you know Steven Spielberg played the clarinet in jaws?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is so cool how invlolved he is. I read that a movie named trojan wars costed $15,000,000 to make and only made $309. I need to find out what movie that is lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow what a loss, did you know Steven Spielberg still make millions from star wars because a bet from George Lucas in 1977?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I read that. I did not know that he Directed The Color Purple. Saving private ryan was one of my favorites though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Either me I just recently saw color purple and it still a good movie like I have seen it for the first time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You see how big Oprah is now right? She was wonderful in that movie.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes she was, do you usually purchase your tickets from the box office or purchase online?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I always buy it online. I try to avoid missing out on big titles like star wars. Pick it up at the theatre.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know that more than 80 percent of the earth natural forests already been destroyed?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I read that. And we continue to use our resources like we dont have a clue whats going on. If global warming hits us, think of the already 71 % water covering earth. It will be catastrophic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes you are right, we can't see it because most of the water is underneath us.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oooo imagine the animals in the unexplored water world we have not seen yet. 4.5 million years old and the world has animals in its oceans for quite some time now. Like the lizards.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user when the earth was first formed a day was only 5.5 hours long. It was nice chatting with you, have a good night.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you know that summer was considered a bad time to release a movie?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent In the past it may have been.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it was until Jaws was released. That was a scary movie back in the day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that was a good movie. Did you like it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I use to. I think I have seen it too many times now. Spielberg played the clarinet for the soundtrack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that is pretty interesting. Did you see the Goonies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have. That is a cute movie. I love how they get the jewels at the end to pay the mortgage.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is pretty good. I'm fairly certain Stranger Things is a rip off of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've never seen that movie. There are so many rip-offs these days.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is a show on Netflix actually. The first season isn't that bad.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't have Netflix. These days, I'm sure that sounds weird.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't either. I saw it at a friends house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard that Netflix is losing a lot of money because of password sharing. Did you know Tom Hanks is the highest all-time box office star? I would believe it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that could be, they are creating a lot of their own content.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user All the streaming channels seem to be doing that now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that is pretty cool. Do you use Roku?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I love my ROKU.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you recommend getting one of them?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would definitely. You can also get Netflick, Hulu. I have Amazon Prime which has lots of channels.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh cool. Then maybe I will check that out. Are you a Tom Hanks fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I truly am. I draw charcoal portraits and I have drawn a picture of him. He is an amazing actor. I also like Robin Williams. I noticed he did a lot of movies about dying.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think he is a great actor. Well, nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chatting with you too.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know much about the Bible?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent some yes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know that has sold over an estimated 5 billion copies? Wow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I knew it was perhaps the most sold and published book of all time<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Prior to 1963 it was not uncommon for students in the US to be required to read from the bible as part of their elementary eduction!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I lived in the Southern US for a while and they still use that at times<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice. Thomas Jefferson created his own version of the Bible. He used a razor to cut out the supernatural parts, such as the miracles and the resurrection.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I was fascinated to hear about that. That would mean he did not accept the divinity of Jesus Christ, but that He was only a human man.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! Teddy Roosevelt and John Quincy Adams are the only 2 US presidents that did not use a bible when they were sworn in.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that would indicate to me that they were agnostics or aherents to another form of religion<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. The biblical tower of Babel was likely based on a real building, the Etemenanki in modern day Iraq.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not now that, but it is certainly possible. William Shakespeare wrote an incredible amount of material even though he died at 49 years old.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he did! he is regarded ad the greatest writer in the English language!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I read the cliff notes to one of his plays, but I could never stay interested in his works!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I read the cliff notes of some of his things in college. He coined a lot of popular phrases that we still use today like "good riddance" and "wild goose chase".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes those sayings certainly seemed to have stuck into modern language<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Pocahontas and Shakespeare were alive at the same time and died only a year apart. Interesting facts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess that would mean Lewis and Clark were exploring the Western United States while Shakespeare was performing plays in England!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! lol Shakespeare invented the names Miranda, Jessica, and Olivia. I never knew that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, true. His works can be found in a library, which in Greek language means "book+shelf".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love going to libraries! I'm a heavy user of them. It's been fun chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same thing to you. Good day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You have a good day too!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user There was man who was falsely imprisoned. He used the prison library to study law and learn to free himself. That is amazing don't you think?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is awesome! Speaking of libraries, there are more libraries than McDonalds in the United States. Do you have a library card?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do and that is good to hear. Also, half of adult have library cards that seems like more than I would have thought.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know. I don't know that a lot of my friends go to the library. The Sacramento Library has instituted a type of library that might make going to the library more interesting to many. They started a library of things, so you can check out sewing machines and other things that you don't need to own for a long time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be so useful. I wonder if other cities do that? I know that normal library collections often included DVD's and CD's and other things besides books.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, and I have also checked out passes to various museums in my city. I'm glad some people were dedicated to starting libraries in the past as they have been so useful to me. Have you heard of UK Prime Minister William Gladstone?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have. I heard that he started a library in 1895 with 32,000 books in it. All from his personal collection. Can you imagine?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The more amazing thing to me is how he carted all those books by wheelbarrow over 3/4 mile. He was 85!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe his daughter helped him. I wonder how many were Shakespeare plays. I was reading one at the library. Did you know that Shakespear coined many of the terms we use today, including "good riddance" and "laughing stock?"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh, that's interesting. I would never have thought as luck would have it, break the ice, and full circle were from Shakespeare.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess it makes sense that he coined so many terms since he was the world's greatest dramatist. Plus, he wrote so much. He wrote 39 plays!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not only did he coin terms, but he created names. The names Miranda, Olivia and Jessica were invented by Shakespeare. I didn't know those names went so far back!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is interesting. I wonder if these names sound different with the accent of the time. I know the accent can affect the meaning of the performance. The old accent can introduce rhymes or puns that don't work with our modern tongue. What might Miranda sound like in Shakespeare's voice?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is an interesting thought. Shakespeare has been translated into every major language. I wonder how they preserve Shakespeare's style and language in other languages.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a good question. It would be interesting to study that in school. I bet people use to study Shakespeare in school more than they do now. I hear that people often studied the Bible in school before 1963.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the Bible does still play a large role in our lives though. Presidents are still sworn in with them. I wonder why Teddy Roosevelt and John Quincy Adams did not use Bibles at their swearing in ceremonies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is true. It does play a role still. Plus it was influenced by real history. For example, the tower of Babel was probably based on a real building in what is now Iraq.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thomas Jefferson didn't seem to agree with all parts of the Bible. He made his own version and cut out the supernatural parts. I wonder why that was.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting!. All so at least three Presidents saw the Bible differently (Jefferson, Roosevelt and Adams.) Iti is interesting to think about how the Bible changes too. For example, the apple from Adam and Eve was a translation from the 4th century.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's true. And different Bible canons have evolved over the century with overlapping contents but also diverging contents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. In fact, the what is seen as canonical depends on the traditions of different groups.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is what cuases disagreement between CHristian denominations about what should be included in the canon.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi! How much do you know about planets?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello - I know the alternate names for Earth are gaia, tellus, and telluris.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is awesome, I wonder why they settled on Earth. It is the only one without a God/Goddess name.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I saw that in 1975 the Soviet Union sent a spacecraft to Venus.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, maybe that is how they found out it doesnt tilt/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You can fit every other planet between Earth and the moon/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I didnt realize it was really that far away. Does that include pluto, they can't decide about that poor planet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe it does. There is a planet that orbits four stars.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is a planet where shards of glass rain sideways at 4500 mph in 2000 degree F weather. No thanks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's crazy! Manned space stations orbit Jupiter are impossible due to the intense radiation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would imagine. I have heard there are pretty violent storms on Jupiter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've heard that too. Even heard you can pick up the strong storms on Earth over radios<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Jupiter has a moon that could be considered a planet if it orbited the sun.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that's crazy. Do you know much about governors?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Some, I know Schwarzenegger never lived in Sacramento, he commuted daily by private jet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would be hard to do. It says he went 3 hours per day by private jet. Talk about a long commute.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i couldnt do that. time is too valuable.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. Did you know that Athiests cannot be governor of South Carolina.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I didnt know that. Texas actually elected the first female governor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's really good to know. The governor of Oklahoma has an Oklahoma shaped pool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chat! Have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hello do you like dance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love it. Did you know Bruce Lee was a dancer too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes pretty awesome he even won a cha -cha championship once<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, same with Tupac, he was a ballet dancer too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and he even was part of a nutcracker production, he was the mouse<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice. Ballet dancers go through tons of shoes, 4 pairs a week<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah must cost a lot too. Babies are good at dancing too when they hear music<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah and they smile more once they hit the beat, smart<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes super sweet. Jackson had a patent on a device that improved his dance moves<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice. Do you like soundtracks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I do. Did you know Spielberg, when creating the soundtrack for Jaws, played the clarinet?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the Brother Where Art Thou one is 8 times certified platinum<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow! That is impressive. Phil Collins speaks many languages and recorded the Tarzan ST in all of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes including german, spanish, italian, and french. Amazing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know. The track title in the Batman Begins ST is named after a genius of a bat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha that is super creative. Do you ever read movie reviews?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I read them sometimes, I mostly rely on Rotten Tomatoes, and you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. Did you know Bay's average rating for his movies is just 38% there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow that low? Movies based on video games also have a low rating there too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it seems. It is owned by Warner Bros<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they seem to have their hand on everything<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of dance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sure. I find the movement very aesthetically pleasing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They say that babies spontaneously dance to music. I suppose that shows there's something very fundamentally human in dance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not just human! Parrots are able to dance perfectly to music. They speculate it's tied into their ability to mimic.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, I guess everything with a heartbeat probably feels some impulse to dance. More advanced forms of dance have aesthetic and symbolic value.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know Emilia Clarke did the funky chicken and robot dance to audition for Game of Thrones?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL, no. Can't imagine how that would help her get the part? I do know that Bruce Lee once won a cha-cha competition in Hong Kong.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's pretty funny. Apparently, Mr. Rogers learned to breakdance on an episode.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And rapper Tupac Shakur danced in the Nutcracker in high school. Sounds like he and Mr Rogers swapped paths along the way.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha. Like Bill Bailey, an old tap dancer and Michael Jackson! Bill Bailey was first recorded moonwalking in 1955.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So someone was moonwalking for anyone (literally) moon walked?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha! That's a funny way to put it. I wonder what the called it back then? Maybe if he had been wearing those ballet slippers that make drawings from the movements we could come up with a better name.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hear they go through four pairs of pointe shoes a week. Lots of wear.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Soundtracks are important in dance, as well as movies, too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep. And some become bigger hits than the movies, such as the soundtrack to "O, Brother, Where Art Thou?". It went octuple platinum.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Alicia Keys wrote a song for the Men in Black soundtrack when she was only 16!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's impressive, although I haven't heard the tune. I know that Channing Tatum got his start dancing in Step Up when he was young. Met his wife that way.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, it's too bad about their divorce.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It appears to have been amicable, which is nice. They still describe each other as best friends.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Step Up had a really fun soundtrack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user But I think the critics hated it. I think it has 19% approval at Rotten Tomatoes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Rotten Tomatoes has some pretty high standards, though. Neither Ashton Kutcher or Jennifer Love Hewitt have been in movies with a "Fresh" rating.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good evening! Do you know much about Maryland's governor?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not too much, so you? Did you know that ralph lawrence carr was the only governor to oppose the internement of japanese americans during ww2?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that. Maryland's governor, Larry Hogan, is a republican who was under some hot water for policies on climate change.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats interesting. the beatles song"come together" was written for 1969 governor campaign.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Larry Hogan could probably have used the support of a group like the Beatles, but I'm sure he will be ok. At least he isn't as bad as North Dakota's in 1934 who actually seceded from the US for a short time!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent when schwarzenegger became governor of ca he commuted 3 hours everyday lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe so he could leave the office every day and say "I'll be back!"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha good one!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you hear that Texas had a female governor before other states even allowed women to vote?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah thats really interesting. did you know there hasnt been a us president who wasnt a rep or dem since 1853?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow! We truly are a two party system, but don't try getting elected as president as a democrat with a beard. So far all bearded presidents have been republican.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Im not excited about that, I will never be president lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's crazy to think that red/blue connotations for the parties isn't even 20 years old.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it seems like that was always the case, but I guess not.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Bush's had a heck of a run with three terms. In fact, before Trump, you'd have to go back to 1928 to find an elected republican that didn't have nixon or a bush.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats interesting, do you know much about our planets? The planet uranus rotates sideways instead of spinning.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Crazy! Jupiter is so big that it has moons that would be planets if they simply orbited the sun and Jupiter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is cool. there is a planet that shards of glass rain sideways at 4500 mph!!! thats insane!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. There are some crazy planets out there. Venus doesn't even have seasons because it doesn't tilt and rotates in a different direction than the rest of the planets that revolve around our sun.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is really interesting. I heard that astronauts can vote from space, lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Must have been an absentee ballot!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's been fun chatting, have a good one.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Have you ever used the Rotten Tomatoes website? I check out all the movies I'm going to watch on there first.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You know, I do to. I feel it's better to be informed than waste my time or money without knowing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If I'm watching a movie at home I don't care about the reviews as much but definitely want to make sure I am getting my moneys worth at the theater.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Amen, to that. Movie ticket prices are outrageous, nowadays. Netflix has almost 150 movies that carry a 100% Rotten Tomatoes rating.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've found it has been so hard to find a movie on Netflix, I have been watching a lot of their original content lately though. Do you watch Netflix?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent All the time. It is another one of those companies created by college students. Lol. All I did in college was party!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I didn't spend my time in college trying to make companies either, I wish I did though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Just a random note, did you realize that Bruce Lee wa such a good dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not, but with his athleticism and talent I am not surprised.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right! He won the 1958 Cha Cha championship in Hong Kong. I can not even picture that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would like to see some video of that. I have only seen a couple of his movies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Speaking of dancing, are you aware that Michael Jackson holds a patent on a dance device?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that but if anyone would have one it's him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's right, he was a master of dance. This device apparently, helped him get that extreme lean that he did in some of his dances.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Now that you mention it I do somewhat remember seeing how he did that. It was almost like a piece of metal that would lock into his shoe so he could almost lean 45 degrees. I believe he used it in the Smooth Criminal music video.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Looked very cool, when he did it! I heard somewhere that Tupac danced ballet. Have you heard anything about that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I had heard he trained in the ballet. Did you know that the Air Jordan logo is him doing a ballet move?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, I didn't know that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A lot of athletes have used ballet and now yoga to help with flexibility and reduce injuries!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I hear it does help tremendously.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have taken yoga before but I need a few more classes before I get more flexible. It was fun chatting with you, have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hello<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, Michael jackson has a patent. on a device used to achieve the extreme lean in some of his dance moves<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is extremely interesting actually. never knew that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't either. I guess for the song Smooth Criminal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user perhaps. what article you thought was the most interesting?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Tupac danced ballet in high school and ended up portraying the mouse king in a production of the nutcracker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I found interesting the concept with rotten tomatoes. Poor people<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Babies spontaneously dance when they hear music, and smile more when they hit the beat. Dance is so interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Dance truly is interesting. As for the babies dancing spontaneously when they hear music, I totally agree. My child does the same<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Mine do as well. Professional ballet dancers can go through 4 pairs of pointe shoes in a week.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That I certainly didn't know. She is still too little for ballet lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Michael bay's average rotten tomatoes film rating is 38%<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Quite surprising. Also Netflix has almost 150 movies with 100% rating on rotten tomatoes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I was just reading that. How cool is that? I like to watch some of the stuff on Netflix.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I also like to watch movies on Netflix. Its convenient and the premium is not too high<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Exactly, Spykids received a 93% fresh rating on rotten tomatoes, better than, say, lincoln or the dark knight rises.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user true that. How about soundtracks. Any thoughts on that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't realize that Steven spielberg played the clarinet in the jaws soundtrack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same here. Thought it was very interesting<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No doubt. The soundtrack to 'o brother, where art thou?' is certified 8 times platinum.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yep.pretty fascinating<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thanks for the chat. It was informative.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user same. have a good day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thanks, you too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user bye<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How do you like planet earth?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I find the earth and the solar system very interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is so interesting! I love learning about planets. Like Jupiters mon Ganymede!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I agree! Isn't the Ganymede Jupiters own moon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yea, it would be considered a planet if it orbited the sun, that is amazing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very, Did you know our planet Earth has other names besides Gaia?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know there were any names besides Earth, lol. I guess maybe the blue planet, what other names do you know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Tellus and Telluris! very cool! This is also a planet that orbits four stars!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow! I love learning! I think I saw once that astronomers found a planet many light years away that could sustain life<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I heard that too! Exciting!! Do you know anything about the solar asteroid belt?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do not know too much, i just know there is crazy things that happen out there, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True, its has celestial bodies called Ceres, Pallas, Juno and Vesta!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I need to tough up on my planet facts, you have so many! I know that five planets are visual with the naked eye in the sky<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, Aren't they interesting! Do you have a favorite planet? I think mine would be Jupiter and Venus!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Mine is mars, I hope we get a man on mars in my lifetime, do you think it will happen/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yes, Mars!! I love it too!! I hope so, There is a good chance we will.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet, the more money we spend the better our chances. We just need some brave souls that are willing to take the chance like the first time we went to space!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, very brave!! I hope we can do that sometime soon. Are there signs of water on Mars?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think there have been theories of underground lakes and the potential of water. I will read up on it more. It was so nice chatting with you and getting good facts!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really, I thought there was or at least they thought so!! Yes, enjoyed chatting too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have a great night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi. I guess Channig Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum are getting a divorce. Sad.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I read about that in the news. The things he says about it almost sound too good to be true...maybe it's sarcastic?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not sure... They were a good team. I guess "Step Up" was a favorite for many.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Seems like it. I never saw it, though.They are pretty talented to be good at both acting and dancing. Singing, too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think so, the "Step Up" soundtrack had high acclaim.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think the movie tried to have an overall good message to be the best you can be in everything you do. Inspirational for many.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's refreshing... I can see why ABC Family was mentioned.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kids love to dance to soundtracks, too. I think they even have a few video games with dance and music<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, they do. I didn't know Bruce Lee was also a great dancer. I thought he just beat up bad guys.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's really cool! I think Patrick Swayze was also a multi-talented actor dancer. He was in a very famous movie and that soundtrack is also great.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I can see him but Tupac? I guess Tupac danced ballet in high school. How can you hide a gun in tights?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds so crazy it might even be an urban legend! Ballet dancers go through a lot of shoes in just one week. Think how their feet feel!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ouch! I guess we are all dancers to some degree. Babies naturally dance when they hear music.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I remember as kids we'd have birthday parties and dance to various Disney Soundtracks. Do they still make those, I wonder?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If they do, they are probably "R" rated. Disney has changed for the worse. I think it's great the Spielberg played clarinet in the Jaws soundtrack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Speilberg is amazing! It wouldn't surprise me if he could dance well, too! I wonder if he'd ever play an instrument in another soundtrack?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Don't know... I do know that Phil Collins recorded the Tarzan sound track in many different languages. Ilaian, German, etc.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's amazing! I wonder if those are all rated on Rotten Tomatoes? It's owned by WB so I wonder if it's hard on Disney or other rivals?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if that biases their judgement for WB productions. No film based on video games ever got a rating above 44% from RT.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If you like video games, some of those movies are pretty good, too. I didn't realize Rotten Tomatoes was started by students until recently! Brilliant!,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I kind of look at IMDB for ratings... Great chat! You were excellent!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey do you like Star Wars? I know that I like the first three movies, the next three are ok, and I really hate the new ones<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love the original 3 like you. But the new ones are bad, I agree.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha well I'm glad we agree on that. What did you think about Rogue one that came out in 2016? I thought it was a total disaster haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think any movie that relegates the Great Luke to the trash heap is nothing. "No! I am your Father" is the greatest scene of all time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I agree with you. I just feel bad that James Earl Jones only made about eight grand for doing the voice in the first movie, although it was only about two and a half hours of work, he hit it out of the park<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? That is bad. Have you ever scene the scenes without him and the original actor?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I have. Doesn't that guy have a Scottish accent or something? And I think he thought he was going to be the actual voice, very strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hilarious. I think they are great though. I didn't know JEJ only spent 2.5 hours recording though!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I know, he did a great job for the limited time, can you believe that 20th Century Fox let George Lucas keep the merchandising rights, that's what made him a billionaire, so crazy I don't think they would do that ever again<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I can believe it. Good for him, what does the corporation need with something they didn't invent anyways?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I agree with you. Are you going to watch the Academy Awards by the way? They give out 24 Awards and I think that the first broadcast was back in 1930, which is wild<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, so like the academy awards totally suck. Does anyone actually give a bleep what they think?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I think that they don't really pick the best movies. A lot of good movies that I like a lot or never even nominated. I do like Daniel Day-Lewis though, I'm glad that he won three times for best actor<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent By the way, do you watch you tube? Much better than AA!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I agree with you! I watch YouTube almost everyday. I can't believe that Google bought YouTube for 1.65 billion dollars back in 2006. That seems like so long ago<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh, I can believe it. Google could make it a success, Youtube couldn't succeed on it own.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep I agree with you. Did you know that YouTube is the second biggest search engine, I assume that Google is the first<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm surprised it isn't the first to be honest!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I know that everyone uses YouTube do you ever watch the music video for Gangnam Style by the way. That is one of the highest viewed videos on youtube<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, but I have watched it. Good song, good short term fad too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep it was definitely a fad haha. So was Justin Bieber song Baby, I don't think it should be the most disliked video on YouTube, but it's definitely annoying<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello there, so have you seen any of the Star Wars movies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have seen several. I read Tran who played rose left Instagram after racist messages from fans.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is so sad fans are so cruel to people. I have yet to see her in that movie, I really want to though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. The last Jedi divided it's fans<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I think each movie does because there are so many of them and they all have their different tastes. But the personal comments to the actors is just stupid.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know Chloe Bennet changed her last name to get in to US easier<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I didn't know that, I wonder how many people do that when they come here.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Seems like a lot. Apparently they get more call backs with American last names.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I can see that, and whatever helps for them I'm sure they will do. Hey do you know how much James Earl Jones was paid for doing all the darth vader lines?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No. What is it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess he only got paid $7,500, but when I say only, it only took him two and a half hours to do them!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a lot for 2 and half hours.in 2018 star wars was worth $65 billion<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Holy cow, I wonder how much it was worth in 1998, probably less than half of that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent In 2013 star wars was dubbed in Navajo, making it the first major film to be in navajo<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is awesome! Did you know Star Wars holds a Guinness World Record title?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No for what? Fox thought star wars would flop<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess they hold the record for most successful film merchandising franchise. When I hear merchandising I think of that scene from Spaceballs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you watch the academy awards? Eminem has more Oscars than Leonardo DiCaprio<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy! I heard he has more than Johnny Depp and Will Smith as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The Oscars were nominated for 9 Emmys in 2013.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What? That is so stupid to me, why an awards show? Do you know who is the only actor to win best actor 3 times?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Daniel day Lewis I think.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good call! He is a great actor though so I can see it, I wonder what roles he won for. Maybe the butcher role in Gangs of New York.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably. Blazing saddles was nomonanom for 3 Oscars too. Well have a great night.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, do you like Star Wars?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't really though I do respect it as a franchise. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I like it. Lucas' wife made such changes to the script that she won the Academy Award<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Star Wars is the second highest grossing film series of all time. It's spawned into a bunch of other media like books, video games, theme parks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it has certainly taken over everything. It was even dubbed in Navajo<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cool! James Cameron decided to quit being a truck driver so that he could enter the film industry after watching Star Wars. I guess that was the right decision.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh for sure it was, the guy is a legend now. James Earl Jones got only $7500 recording Darth Vader's lines<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Crazy! Fox thought Star Wars was going to flop and agreed to George Lucas's proposition to forgo an extra $500K directing fee so that he could keep licensing and merchandising rights. Their decision cost them billions of dollars<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and at the same time made Lucas a billionaire. He just had a lot of confidence in his work<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, in 2018 the whole Star Wars franchise was estimated at $65 billion<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is insane. Do you watch the Academy Awards?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I don't. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I watch it sometimes. Did you know Daniel Day-Lewis has won the Oscar 3 times?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not sure I even know who he is. Good for him. John Williams has been nominated for more Oscars than anyone besides Walt Disney.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah Disney is going to be hard to reach by anyone else with 22 Oscars<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He got a special Oscar in 1938 for snow white that had a regular sized statuette and seven miniature oscars.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is amazing. Eminem has more Oscars than Leonardo DiCaprio and some other big names.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Speaking of Oscars, Kelly Marie Tran went to them. She is the first non white woman in Star Wars leading role.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is amazing. Have you seen the movie Blazing Saddles?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not seen it. Tran faced a lot of racist and abusive language on her social media though. That's sad.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is just sad. I hope we move towards behaving as we should with each other. Nice chat :)<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi there! Are you a Star Wars fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, Yes I am a star wars fan!!! Since I was a kid. What about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! Mostly when it comes to the Original trilogy. Those are the best.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is amazing how star wars was created long time ago , in 1977 and with a movie made last year , the star wars fever is so alive!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It has to be one of the most sucessful franchises ever. 40 years and still has a great following.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is incredible that the first eight films were nominated for academy awards, they were able to create wonderful productions!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The total value of the franchise was about $65 billion. It will definitely always be a legend!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And 20 century fox though star wars was going to be a failure!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard that, apparently so did Harrison Ford, I heard he didnt want to be credited in the film initially.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Is that right! Well, good for George Lucas because this poor vision from 20 century made him a billionaire<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It definitely did. Do you know how much James Earl Jones was paid to record Darth Vader's lines?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe it was $7,500, and he just spent 2 hours and a half doing so<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Isnt that crazy? Some of those lines are so iconic, and he got so little for them. Shame.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, it is basically nothing.. Did you know George Luca's wife influenced the star wars movies a lot?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, didnt she receive an editing award too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent She got an award for editing!! I think she made an important contribution.. good job<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user She definitely changed some parts significantly. It would have been far different without her.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, she did major changes.. and is interesting George did not get the award for directing!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Eminem has more oscars than George Lucas! That is hard to believe!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, and he has won more awards than Leo Di Caprio, Johnny Depp and Bill murray combined<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didnt realized he had any at all, I wonder what they were all for.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have to check!! Do you know who has won , best actor 3 times?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Who? Harrison Ford?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is Daniel Day Lewis, what an accomplishment<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It really is! It has been great chatting, but I must go. have a great night!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You do the same!!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Government is fascinating. It seems so different the world over yet there are common threads in every type.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. Some governments try to help, others, not so much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So true. I wonder what america would look like if we had a PM instead of a president. A PM seems to be held more accountable for their actions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True. Much easier to remove. Australia's PM position isn't in the constitution and exists only through custom. That seems strange to me. Not in the Constitution?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Australia's constitution is weird though. It doesn't protect the people as much like an american one does.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know that. Number 10 Downing Street has a cat with a title! I wonder how many other government headquarters have animals like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user With all the historic buildings in the UK I could see why they need one. Older structures like that tend to attract rodents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Is one cat enough though? Might need a support staff.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right? lol. I wonder if you can meet the cat if you tour the offices?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The cat doesn't take visitors without an appointment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I could see the cat being involved in a lot of the pranks the UK officials seem to play on each other.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent When you turn 100 in japan, the PM gives you a silver cup to celebrate. Too many people are turning 100 so that they had to find a way to make cheaper cups. Maybe give the cup when people turn 200?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be one way to cut the costs. How many people are turning 100 that it is costing enough to have to find a cheaper solution? Talk about a healthy society.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Celebrating a centennial is cool, but the gov't can't afford it! Are you a fan of Johnny Depp?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I find him very interesting. He is one of those chameleon actors that you never watch and go Oh that's Johnny Depp he sort of absorbs the character.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Johnny is producing and maybe starring in a biopic about Dr. Seuss. I would be interested in that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he would make a fantastic Dr. Seuss Look what an amazing job he did with willy wonka. I think the creepy edge he gave to the character was perfect.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He is really dedicated to his craft. Edward Scissorhands was an odd film, but he made it work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That whole movie was just weird. He might be a strange man but he seems to really have a good heart.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know that he often visits children in the hospital dressed up as a pirate.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He seems to really be an animal lover too.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Many people like to watch horror films, I don't like slashers but like some like World War Z, did you know the horror film genre has been around for more than a century?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent oh yes, I even watched the first "Nosferatu" movie - not sure when that was made but it's quite old...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That one is a classic, based on the book by Bram Stoker. They say if you watch a horror movie you will enjoy abstract art more, maybe because they are both a horror?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I always loved horror movies... they work good on Your imagination ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They are good for your health as well, guess why?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Horrors good for Your health ? You poop more often ? I don't know ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha, that or have a heart attack, no seriously, you burn 180 calories watching a horror movie, wonder what other types of cinema burn?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I mean if the movie really scares You, than maybe, but what if You just like the story, but it's no longer scary for You, because You've seen it all ? ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I can't imagine not being scared watching a horror movie, thats why I like other forms of cinema. Do you know cinematogrrpahy is the science of motion picture photography and important to all types of movies?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent well sure, it's just hundreds of pictures with sound in the background ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The art is making them look good with the right music and sound to tell a story. Do youknow the guy who pioneered the use of the wide angle lens won aan oscar but was not a citizen until '43 and illegally married a white woman because he was Chinese American, we have done some stupid things in our past treatment of others.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I mean I wouldn't say it's stupid... if he was here illegally, that means he broke the law... there was no legal way to get here ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was her and became a citizen, the law he broke was marrying a white woman because he was asian. That is crazy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ahhh, I did not get that. So he came it legally ? and he couldn't marry white woman ? Was that a law ? What year was that ??<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user His marriage did not become legal until 1948, prior to that it was considered illegal. No woman has every been nominated for best cinematography Oscars either, so I guess there are still some issues.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There will always be issues with race... but we're getting there...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like the fantasy escape from all of our problems we find at the box office. I guess others do to since Tom Hanks has made over 8.5 billion.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I mean good for him, he was always very talented, but honestly, I don't remember seeing any new movie with him, do You ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I haven't seen anything new in a long time, I did love Forest Gump, and You've got Mail though. I really like Disney movies, do you know Sleeping Beauty was such a failure they considered closing down.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol, no I didn't know that. I have a beef with Disney thou... I loved it when I was a kid, but since they've destroyed Star Wars... they're dead to me ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I prefer the original 3 from my childhood in the 70's. Hopefully they learn something from their flops like Treasure planet, not that was a waste of money.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes. just because its Disney and it has to be ok for kids ? make a division for adults and start making decent movies... You have the budget, technicians... nothing would stop them...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think they have a separate division but can't remember what it is called. I'm not sure I'd like to see the name Disney on a film like Silence of the Lambs though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Why not... it was a great movie. Classic. but I see what You 're saying. No I mean make movies like Star Wars for a little bit mature audience... don't focus on 6year olds because there are millions of 60 year old wanted to see how the story continues...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user We never get to see the rebuilding of the galaxy and having Leia and Han's son kill Han and be bad was a stupid thing to do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent it was a poor choice yes. and the way they showed Luke was not to my liking either...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They made him seem like he regressed into some kind of whiney baby, at his age and experience he should be evolving more like Ben Kenobi or even Yoda, not woah is me I need a xanex Luke<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's my point exactly ! He was Vader's son ! Son of a person born out of force.. in my mind, he should be leading everybody to defeat Siths OR maybe share the faith of his father and go the the dark side... but not this...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was so frustrating and annoying. Vader's turn to the bright side at the end should have affirmed him and gave him deterination to continue, and why have Han's son be so bad, that is just pointless, I guess they couldn't think of a bad guy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think they are preparing a twist of action nobody is suspecting but I think it's in a bad taste. I personally think Han Solo lives ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I won't even pay to see the rest of them, the cinematography is great though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Absolutely ;) no argument here ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If I was a better cinematographer, I'd make my own movies, but thats not in the cards. Its been nice visiting with you.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same here, thank You so much for fun conversation ! ;)<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey there what do you know about the prime minister of the UK?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know that much actually. He has a cat though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love the name of the cat. The name is Chief Mouser of the cabinet office LOL can't say I like cats though haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hilarious. What happens if someone is allergic?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am actually allergic to cats. And that's a great question haha do you know who Helena Bonham Carter is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, she was in Fight Club, other than that I don't remember many of the movies with her.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Apparently she's related to the prime minister of the United Kingdom during World War I. That's very bizarre<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? That is pretty weird. Did you know if you hit 100 in japan they give you a silver cup?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that. It's funny that so many people turned 100 they had to find a way to make cheaper cups though haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hilarious, at least they are healthy there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's true they're definitely not giving those Awards away in the United States haha. I do like that Norway donated a billion dollars to save the Amazon rainforest though that's very nice of them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that seems interesting, do they do a lot of business there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure actually. They might have just donated it because they're nice. Unlike The guy who sold the Eiffel Tower twice who definitely just wanted the money haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's hilarious, he wasn't even the owner. Did you know Johnny Depp directed the film brave?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I didn't know that. Have you seen that movie is it any good?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I haven't actually. LOL BTW, apparently 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US Government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow that is a lot. Very strange that Johnny Depp is making a movie about dr suess. But I think he would be great for the role<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that may have already have been released, but maybe I am wrong.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It does sound familiar. Have you seen the movie Edward Scissorhands? Apparently Johnny Depp only says about 200 words<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's been a very long time, but yeah I saw it. Now that I think about it, he barely speaks in that film!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You're right. I do love that movie a lot though. It's a great winter movie. Johnny Depp seems like a nice guy. He adopted his one-eyed horse from the movie Sleepy Hollow when he heard it was going to be put down<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, do you like johnny depp?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, how are you? Who is Johnny Depp? A singer? An athlete?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He is an actor. He is the one that directed the movie The Brave, if you have seen it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not seen it. Is it about brave people or an Indian brave? Is he an American Indian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he might be partly american indigenous. I am not sure though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Is he pretty ethnic? I think he'd have to be pretty ethnic to pull that off. Not like Elvis. Was Johnny a friend of Nic Cage?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He might be I am not sure. He even adopted the one eyed horse that was in the movie saleepy hollow<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A one-eyed horse? That sounds odd. What is so charming about Cyclops the Horse? I guess you would have to put an eyepatch over one of the eyes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They were going to put the horse down so he wanted to save it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess he had a place for keeping horses. Do you know much about government? I am not a fan of government. It seems like a useful invention, much like a one-eyed horse.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me either but I do find it strange that the govnerment owns 86% of the land in Nevada<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I figure the gov't must be up to something in that Nevada desert. War games? Alien spaceports?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no idea they are certainly using it for something. Did you ever play nintendo?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I played a bit. I warn't into them games. I had other chores to attend to on the farm/prison where I growed up. You? Did you play them games?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds rough. Do you know about wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I applied for a job there, but they didn't hire me. Said my background wasn't suspicious enough.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hahhaha that is funny. did you know they figured out the government is trying to destroy them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, they are Wikileaks, so they have a list of enemies pretty long.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that makes sense. Did you know a man in france sold the eiffer tower twice?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That man could probably sell the govt's land in Nevada for us! Well, I've had a swell time chatting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same here, have a good one.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi! Did you know the Prime Minister of Australia's position isn't actually in their constitution but only exists through custom? I find that surprising!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow I didn't know that. I also didn't know that the Prime Minister selects and then can dismiss members of the cabinet. I always wondered what they did<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's a little strange, isn't it? But on a lighter note, a radio station prank called Queen Elizabeth II back in 95, pretending to be Jean Chretien who was the Prime Minister of Canada back then. Ha!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is very strange. Do you know who Helena Bonham Carter is? She was in the Harry Potter movies, but anyway she is the great-granddaughter of a prime minister<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that so? I wonder if she used her family to become an actress? Ha! Well in Japan, their Prime Minister sends their residents a silver cup when they turn 100 to celebrate it. Problem is, so many are turning 100 now, they're having to find ways to make cheaper cups. That's a good thing though!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a good thing! What do you think about Wikileaks by the way? Apparently the government try to destroy them, but Wikileaks just leaked their plans LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's kind of ironic, isn't it? I wonder if Wikileaks will tell us what the government does with the 86% of Nevada's land that they own?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a good question. Maybe it is Area 51 that they own haha? It's also crazy to think that Norway donated a billion dollars to help save the rainforest, I wonder if they own the land or just donated it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's a good question. I'm glad they're taking action to protect the rainforests though! Did you ever hear about the guy in France who posed as a government official and sold the Eiffel Tower twice? It's like how did he pull that off? Someone like him could sell fire in hell! Ha!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha yes a very talented salesman for sure! Definitely a scam too. What do you think about the actor Johnny Depp by the way? He likes to live in France<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Does he really? I think he's a great actor. Although I'm not sure about his directing skills as I still haven't seen The Brave that he directed back in 1997!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I've never even heard of that movie. I do know that gives a good actor, I loved him in Edward Scissorhands even though he only said 196 words<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is weird to have so few lines like that! I can't believe Gene Wilder didn't watch the Willy Wonka remake because he didn't want to be disappointed in Depp. That is a little disappointing to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that is disappointing. I hope that Johnny Depp goes through with making a biopic about dr. Seuss. That would actually be my first choice for a person to play him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. That would be cool to see. I mean, I think that film would earn him another academy award nomination. I mean, He's already been nominated for three!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that is impressive! He seems like a nice guy, he adopted a one-eyed horse in one of his movies because they were going to put it down, that's nice thing to do<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's a very nice and humane thing to do! He's certainly come a long way since his rise in the 1980s with 21 Jump Street, hasn't he?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes absolutely! It's crazy that he was born in 1963, I remember when he was just a young man<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Absolutely! Back when he was just becoming a teen idol before going on to win Best Actor at both the Golden Globes and the Screen Actor's Guild Awards!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes absolutely! I never knew that he was actually named John Christopher Depp II though. I wonder if his dad was also an actor?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder that as well now that you mention it! Hey, maybe one day he'll run for a position in the government! Ha! I'm sure he's wise enough to know each government has a constitution in place which as you know is a statement of its philosophies and principles! Well it was great chatting with you! Have a good evening, friend!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How's it going, do you watch Horror films? The first ones were inspired by Edgar Allan Poe and Mary Shelley<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love horror movies, I am a stephen king fan!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's kinda strange Stephen King considers bambi a horror movie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right, it must have made him so scared as a kid. I think about the shining sometimes, good movie. The boy in the movie didnt know it was a horror movie until years later<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm surprised the boy from the shinning couldn't figure out he was in a horror movie from the scenes with the bloody elevator and creepy twins<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent right, or the guy breaking down the door. I wonder how the movie was at the box office<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Probably pretty scary, apparently you can burn more than 180 calories watching a horror movie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Dang I need to watch like 10 per night for my diet since I don't do anything else lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Watching horror movies also makes viewing abstract art more enjoyable too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder how that works, do you know the science behind it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no clue, probably something to do with psychology that makes abstract art more enjoyable after a horror movie<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet. You know what else is scary, Treasure Island by disney only made 309 dollars on a 15000000 dollar budget!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, that is pretty horrible. Treasure Planet by Disney was also a huge box office flop<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent sorry I meant treasure planet lol. Silence of the lambs came out on valentines day, imagine that date? lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well it couldn't of been that bad since Silence of the lambs made 270 million at the box office<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent for sure, I mean bringing your date to it! Almost as crazy as disney almost shutting down their studios because of sleeping beauty failing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy. Do you like Tom Hanks, he's grossed over 8.5 billion at the box office<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Man, he should be in every movie at that much money! Youre guaranteed to make money at that rate i think<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, Tom Hanks is the highest all-time box office draw<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is amazing, great actor! good chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have a good one<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good Morning! Do you like to watch horror films?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, how are you? I am not really a fan of the genre, though I have some favorites.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What are some of your favorite ones? Stephen king considers Bambi one haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent King was just a kid, to be fair. That movie could be scary to a tiny child. He then turned his fright into a profession.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You're right on that one. Did you know you can burn 180 calories watching one?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I suppose that I could try to lose weight that way. It might be easier to exercise. I like a couple of films, but after the first viewing, they are not as scary.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Just do a marathon one day of watching them and you'll be set. Have you seen the Shining? The boy actor didn't even know it was a horror film until years later.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I liked the Shining. King wrote a great story and it translated well to the screen. I am surprised by the kid though. What did he think it was?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a good question. You would think watching the cinematography alone would let you know it was one!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if he ever saw the film while he was a kid. I think maybe his parents wouldn't let him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That could be it! Did you know no woman has ever been nominated for best cinematography at the oscars?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a shame. I don't know how many women cinematographers there are, but probably not enough. There should be more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree with you! Especially with the box office at what it is. I would hate to work for the movie Trojan Wars. They made only 309 dollars on a budget of 15 million!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Movies are such a crapshoot. There is no magic formula for success. Stars, special FX, marketing. Doesn't matter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They really are, even with the big names. Tom Hanks has earned 8.5 billion in film earnings for his movies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He is a bankable star. People love him. But he also works with certain people regularly. Spielberg. Zemeckis. They are capable directors.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh for sure! Have you seen Disney's Treasure Planet? That was one of the most expensive box office flops ever.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not. Was that animated? Usually animated stuff is pretty good. I'm surprised.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am surprised too, especially with the Disney name attached to it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess a lot depends on the director. I don't know who directed Treasure Planet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am going to google that now. Have a good day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a soccer or tennis fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well I personally prefer tennis, but I also like lacrosse, did you hear about the spring all met boys lacrosse team?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, what was that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well they want a lot of Awards this year, and I think they're going to do even better next year<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I will have to follow them. Tennis is fun too. a black man won the us open in 1968 and no other black man has since then. That would be award worthy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes they should make a movie about him! it's interesting to that until 1978 you could use any object as a tennis racket, that sounds dangerous<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be hilarious to see what some people came up with. What would you use? lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would use a rocket launcher LOL just kidding. do you watch soccer at all? Apparently soccer makes more than all other sports combined<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Lol that would be perfect, no opponent means you win everytime!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a great point! Did you know that table tennis is the name of the actual sport, and that ping pong is only the name of the company that sells the table tennis equipment?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that, wow! Mind blown! Back to soccer, did you have a favorite team in the world cup?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I don't. I really don't like soccer I think it's boring LOL it's weird to me that the Super Bowl is smaller than soccer's biggest events<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user it is boring, but it is kind of fun to watch one week per 4 years lol. I liked Brazil<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well soccer is a good exercise though, apparently a player will run about 7 miles per game, that's good for burning calories<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user so good, they always have tight bodies lol. There was a german soccer player who donated 300000 euros to help pay for surgeries in brazil<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's really nice of him! What a nice guy, why do you think Greenland can't join FIFA? Apparently it's because they can't grow green grass LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol, that is a valid point but don't you think they could use turf? That is a little wrong i think<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep I agree it seems stupid. I don't know why they need to play on grass specifically, did you hear about the longest tennis point of all time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't what was that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I was asking about the longest point in pro tennis, apparently it lasted for 29 minute straight, it was a 600 shot rally, that's incredible<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, great chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi. Do you play tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I used to and love it. Polo shirts were originally invented for tennis by famous player rene "the crocodile" lacoste and only later adopted by polo players<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I once watched a match where single point lasted nearly 30 minutes. It was historic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, They used a helicopter to dry the grass tennis courts for the 1969 us open<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I remember when players could use just about everything for a racket except the kitchen sink<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha, The longest match in tennis history went on for 11 hours and was spread over 3 days.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you know who played in that match?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I sure don't. I bet they were worn out though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Tennis players make quite a bit of money if they win a tournament but not as much as soccer players<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, they do. On another note, did you know that the rapper drake graduated high school on october 2012 at the age of 25<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a little late isn't it or do Canadians graduate at a later age?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha, that is very late. Probably a ssllooww learner. The beat of drake's song "hotline bling" is actually sampled from timmy thomas' 1972 hit "why we can't live together".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I absolutely love his music!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user During a uk tour in 2011, drake spent an Obscene amount of money'' on first editions of children's classic books Charlotte's web' and Winnie the pooh'.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder why he would do that. He doesn't seem like he is into reading seeing as though he graduated high school so late<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good question. After hearing eminem's verse on drake's song forever, kanye west took two days and cancelled appointments to rewrite his.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Didn't Drake do some acting when he was younger?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Drake initially gained recognition as an actor on the teen drama television series Degrassi: The Next Generation in the early 2000s.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They named a college after him too, didn't they?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure about that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm gonna go listen to his album on YouTube now.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, how are you doing? Soccer makes more money than football, basketball, baseball, golf, tennis and hockey combined.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, I'm doing great. Have you ever watched the variation that has three teams, instead of two?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nope. Did you know Jon stewart was a skilled soccer player in college and represented the us at the pan american maccabi games in brazil in 1983.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do not follow soccer, I do remember reading about the German player who donated his bonus so 23 kids could have surgery.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow so generous! thats amazing! Americans call it "soccer" because it was slang for association football<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I find it fascinating that they used to dry the tennis couts for the 69' US Open with helicopters. I would have loved to see that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Seems like a huge expense lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know the rapper Drake, was Canadian, did you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. During a uk tour in 2011, drake spent an "obscene amount of money'' on first editions of children's classic books 'charlotte's web' and 'winnie the pooh'.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's sweet, and it's interesting that he chose to graduate at 25, instead of getting his GED.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, maybe he really liked his friends that were still in the high school.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kanye is so sensitive, I cannot believe that he actually cancelled appointments to rewrite his part of a song with Drake, after hearing Eminiem's verse.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, he definitely is sensitive.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you watch the show Degrassi? He was an actor on it, I've never heard of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I've heard of it never watched it though. Is that Disney?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm not sure, as I've never watched it, even though it was on for seven years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The rapper drake visited drake university in the middle of the night after students gave up trying to get him to visit during a tour stop.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's funny, I bet he made their night. I was surprised to hear that he is signed with Lil' Wayne's label, instead of Dre's Death Row.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that was very interesting, although either way he still would've made a lot of money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think One Dance is my favorite by him, it's also one of his most popular.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user me too, that song was great! good talking to you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, do you know anything about lacrosse?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello there, I don't know too much I will say, how about you<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not a ton... I love sports though so I could get into it if I needed to. Do you like any other sports?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah same here, I like to be able to at least play every sport just a bit once. Do you follow tennis at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do. I used to play a lot but not any more. Do you play too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have tried to play a few times, but that game is pretty tough. Did you know you could use any object as a racket until 1978? Wonder if anyone ever used anything strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Probably but not in serious competitions. A tennis player actually invented the polo! Who knew!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lol, that is pretty funny, and now they have the polo players on there, I bet the company wants people to think they invented them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The player was Rene "The crocodile" lacoste. His company uses the alligator and is called Lacoste still!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is awesome, yeah I still see the alligator shirts around a bit these days. What a cool name!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They use helicopters to dry us open tennis courts. Who knew!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard about that! During a major tournament or something right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, the US open. Seems like they should have been more prepared.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, but, to me that is pretty good improvisation for whoever came with that idea.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. I work in recreation facilities and would not have thought of calling in a helicopter for any of my isssues.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right same here (if i did work in that area). Do you know what the longest rally was in tennis history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no idea. How long?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It was a 643 shot rally that went on for almost 30 minutes! That is insane, those people must have been tired after that one lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know. The longest match in history was 11 hours over 3 days!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Holy cow, I wonder how many people that started watching that match actually finished?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would have fallen asleep, all three days! Nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello there. Have you ever played the guitar or piano?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no. I would have liked to play but never did. Fan of guitar players from the 60s and 70s<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user oh nice! That reminds me, Eddie van Halen actually set a studio speaker on fire from playing the guitar solo for Beat It,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have heard that. Hendrix set his guitar on fire at Woodstock.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That just shows how badass they are, haha! The best guitarists are the ones that set stuff on fire from playing... or have a phd in astrophysics like the one from Queen.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. He is a smart guy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you know how to play the guitar?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No. I wish that I did<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same here. Whenever i watch people, it looks so easy to pick up and learn... until you actually try to learn and realize its alot harder than it looks hah. Taking the time to build up muscles in your fingers is hard work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Its a great musical instrument<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user This is true. That statement also goes well with piano's. There's so many talented artists out there that can play the piano and guitar. Did you know that Freddie Mercury used the same piano to record Bohemian rhapsody as paul mccartney used to record hey jude? That must be a super lucky piano.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. That piano must be worth a bit of money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I could only imagine. I wonder where they keep that piano.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent it should be in the rock and roll hall of fame<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user As it should be. It would be so awesome to see it in person.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A long time ago at the fillmore east I saw grand funk railroad. Talk about loud and sparks flying<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh nice! I haven't heard of that band until now. What is some popular songs that they have? I want to look them up and give them a listen.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Were an American band, Im your Captain, Some kind of wonderful, are some hits they had in the 1970s<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Cool! I'm listening to Were an American band right now, i reeeeaally love the guitar playing!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Mark Farner i think was lead guitar<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice! Well thank you for opening up my ears to some new awesome music. Now i got some new stuff to listen to. It's been a pleasure chatting with you about guitars and piano's. :)<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user The Hypocrites put on really amusing stage productions!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I would love to go and check Pirates, Pinafore and the Mikado<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i heard that the group does them as a pajama party!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a living dream. A pajama party and a live satirical operetta with talented musician clowns. that is something else<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The use of a pillow pit might be a little bit disturbing for some!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It might. And it is nice they start with sweet dreams from Eurythmics<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user live players doing popular music like Dream On as part of the show is surprising!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They play with music and even with toys. They did release beach balls in pirates of penzance, fun<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They also swap genders in the production of Pinafore.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the price is not expensive, $30 to $74<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not unexpected, given that the theater only holds 100 or so people.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent How much do you like jazz<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I dig it. Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, United States<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is fascinating, comes from ragtime and blues and it is called the Classical music of America<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Cool jazz developed near the end of the 1940s, and is more modern.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It did spread around the world and gave origin to different styles around the world<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It has spread so there is now a programming language in which the programs are written in musical composition, and functional programs have jazz-like harmonies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Great! I also love the dance-oriented swing big bands like the Kansas city jazz<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Many people, even Clint eastwood are lifelong jazz enthusiasts, and scored several films, including million dollar baby<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cool, it is funny that rapper Tupac Shakur studied jazz, acting and poetry.. but became a rapper.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user People are often multitalented! Thanks for the chat!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you know that Jazz music originated in New Orleans?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello - I did not know that. Do you like jazz music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It began in the early 1900's there and became really popular in the 1920's. I like all styles of music actually. Rock music, pop music, country, I like it all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's pretty cool. Jazz trumpeters grew goatees to provide comfort while playing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting to know! There's different styles of jazz...Gypsy jazz and Kansas City jazz.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know they had those two different styles. That's really cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Clint Eastwood is a lifelong jazz fan!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's cool. A Harlem woman has held free jazz concerts in her apartment for 20 years now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Neat! I bet that is a pain to drag up the guitars and piano up there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet so too. Pakistan has a jazz orchestra.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. I don't think of jazz when I think of Pakistan.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me either lol. Eddie Van Halen set his studio speakers on fire when he recorded the guitar solo for "beat it".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Whoa! His playing was literally on fire. lol Brian May from Queen uses coins as guitar picks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's cool I've heard of people using coins before.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It probably would give it a different sound I would think since you're strumming the strings with a metal and not plastic pick.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet you're right on that. He also has a PHD in astrophysics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. The guitarist from Pink Floyd turned a houseboat into a recording studio. Crazy stuff.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's funny. A group climb Britain's highest mountain back in 2006 and found a piano on top.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I couldn't even imagine the ordeal it would have been for whomever had to take that piano up there originally. An aluminum grand piano weighs 356 pounds and that's light compared to a regular piano.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that's much lighter compared to a regular one.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Freddie Mercury used the same piano to record Bohemian Rhapsody that Paul McCartney used to record Hey Jude.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good talking to you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like the piano?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I like the piano. I don't know how to play it, but I think that it works well in many kinds of music.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is an aluminum grand piano that weight 356 pounds, Im guessing thats pretty light for a piano like that one<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True. That was the one on the Hindenburg. Probably sounded pretty tinny. Aluminum. Hm.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Probably yeah, theres another cool fact about a piano, a group of climbers find one in the strangest of places<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder why someone put a piano up there. Did they play it? Did they want others to play it? How did they put it there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no idea how it got there, that is a big mystery can you imagine reaching the top and theres a piano right there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A mystery, like the mysterious mute man found wandering the streets in England in 2005 and could only communicate via piano<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didnt hear about that mute man, sounds like an interesting anecdote<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Almost as strange as Richard Nixon's piano concerto, which he wrote and performed it live on the Tonight Show<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He did? I dint know he played the piano what other instruments do you like maybe the guitar?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The guitar is totally rad man. I dig it. Since its debut in 1949, the Les Paul Gibson es-175 guitar has never gone out of production.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like Eddie Van Halen I heard the studio got on fire with one of his solos, so much power in that guitar<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He really can shred. Setting the amp on fire! Great! Brian May of Queen built his guitar out of parts from an old fireplace and his mother's knitting needle.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user How the level of skill and the determination to become a guitarist, he also has a PHD in astrophysics, really intelligent man<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True. Cornell university researchers built the world's smallest guitar,played by a laser, about the size of a red blood cell. I bet Brian May could figure out a way to play that guitar.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet he can he can put that PHD in astrophysics and his mad skills as a guitarist to work I think his one of the greatest of all time<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The bio-pic of Freddie Mercury did well at the Oscars. Rami Malek won Best Actor. I guess Queen is finally getting recognized by Hollywood.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He won the Oscar right, I thought he nailed it, he was great on that movie, that movie made me cry<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Great guitar and piano playing too. Anyway, thanks for the chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree and also great songs in the movie, the actor that plays Brian May also looks really alike<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hELLO<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi there!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know that on april 18, 1930, the bbc decided there was no news worth reporting, so they broadcast piano music instead.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really, wow! I wonder how many people had TV then?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good question. Freddie mercury used the same piano to record bohemian rhapsody as paul mccartney used to record hey jude<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent cool! ever hears of Eurovision?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, what's that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Song Contest in england.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh ok. In 2006 a group of climbers reached the top of britain's highest mountain and found a piano<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent neat! apparently the competition away from its usual reliance on over-the-top spectacle.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user An aluminum grand piano was built for the lounge of the airship hindenburg. it weighed only 356 pounds.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! I did not know that! Portuguese broadcaster RTP had stripped the Eurovision stage of the walls of LED screens that have become ubiquitous backdrops in recent years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user When eddie van halen recorded the guitar solo for "beat it" he literally set the studio speakers on fire.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh my gosh! DO you like Jazz?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, not really. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Some, but Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is a programming language in which the programs are written in musical composition, and functional programs have jazz-like harmonies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I had no idea! Jazz has roots in West African cultural and musical expression,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A harlem woman has held free jazz concerts at her apartment every sunday for 20 years. top performers occasionally stop by.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats neat! New Orleans jazz began in the early 1910s, combining earlier brass-band marches, French quadrilles, biguine, ragtime and blues with collective polyphonic improvisation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Pakistan has a jazz orchestra that is currently topping the charts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Clint eastwood is a lifelong jazz enthusiast, pianist, and scored several films, including million dollar baby.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Clint Eastwood movies are awesome<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent they are/ I like grand Torino especially. what is your fave?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's great one. Unforgiven was awesome<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'll have to look that one up! Jazz trumpeters grew goatees as it provided comfort when playing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't realize that. That's very interesting. Thanks for the chat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too! Have a good day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thanks have a great day as well<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Matthew bellamy from the band muse holds the guinness world record for most guitars smashed on a tour.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, Do you enjoy Jazz?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi! I do not have much experience with it, and I hope to rememdy that when we go to New Orleans later this year. I hear that is where it originated.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it did!! I have been there! You will love it! Lots of music and energy...It was developed from the blues and ragtime.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess Pakistan has a very good jazz orchestra.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, I didn't know they like Jazz, that's interesting! Did you know Jazz trumpeters like to wear a goatee? It gives comfort when playing. Makes sense.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I better not tell my son, or he will be trying to play my daughter's sax. Clint Eastwood is a jazz fan, and scored several films.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I heard he is a lifelong pianist! Very cool..In Harlem, in a woman's apartment for 20 years she holds Jazz concerts. Sometimes top performers stop by!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would love to live in that neighborhood. There is a computer program that writes in musical compositions, do you know the name of it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No what? Did you know there is a piano at the top of Britain's highest mountain? I would like to see that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would have loved to have been in the studio when Eddie Van Halen set the speakers on fire.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know pretty crazy!! Like when MJ caught his hair on fire! My goodness what's with the fire? I was interested to know about the computer program you mentioned?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He was recording a solo for Beat It.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, hmmm seems like MJ's songs can cause fires! lol I think it would be pretty interesting to be on Pink Floyd's houseboat called Astroria! It's a recording studio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's funny the sound that using coins as guitar picks lends to a song. Queens' guitarist does that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, he likes the English sixpence. Did you know Queen's guitarist has a PHD in astrophysics! Talented and smart.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would love to have seen the piano made out of aluminum, it was on the Hindenburg.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, yes that would be interesting to see. There must be a picture somewhere?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would think there would be. I thought the piano was an older instrument, it was invented in 1700's, not really that old.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user True, I love to hike, I can't imagine climbing to the top of Britain's highest mountain and finding a piano! I wonder how it holds up in the elements? Maybe it was just there for a time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is insane. I want to know more about those who hiked up there, carrying it. Why did they do it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, maybe it had a fantastic sound when recording? Do you play piano? I took some lesson when I was young and sent my daughter for lessons.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do not. Thanks for chatting with me, have a great day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too! Good chat!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thank you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of jazz by any chance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like jazz but cant say I really know much about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's an interesting genre. Jazz trumpeters grew goatees because it provided comfort when playing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that is interesting. Tupac Shakur studied jazz when he was in baltimore school of the arts<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would not have expected that at all. Things may have gone differently for him had he followed that passion. I know that the New Orleans style of jazz started in the 1910's.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats over a 100 years ago. Jazz has been seen as a major form of musical expression since the 1920's<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is an old form of music especially compared to the most popular forms of music now. Pakistan has a jazz orchestra that is currently topping the charts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I never new that . Did you know that louis armstrong ended the beatles three months on the billboard top 100<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user WOW! I didn't think anything could stop The Beatles. No offence to Armstrong but I know a lot more people that still listen to The Beatles.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent This is a pretty interesting guitar fact, A dial tone is in the key of f, serving as a pre-internet trick to tune your guitar<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user WOW! That's clever. I enjoy guitar music. Queen's guitarist, Brian may, has a PHD in astrophysics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent he also built a guitar out of parts from an old fire place and his mothers knitting needles . super smart<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Honestly all of Queen always struck me as a very intelligent group of men. I am also a big fan.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. did you know that the nokia ringtone from a 1902 composition by spanish classical guitarist and composer francisco tarrega, called gran vals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not. It's been so long that I honestly can't remember what that sounded like. I wonder where the iPhone ring tone came from because I hear that everywhere lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent have you ever heard about a mute man from england that could only communicate to others with a piano<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I had not heard that but it's actually quite touching that he could find a way. Speaking of piano, Freddie mercury used the same piano to record bohemian rhapsody as paul mccartney used to record hey jude.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats interesting<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I thought so. I can't play piano but I enjoy the sound. If I had the room a player piano would be nice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like pianos I would like to learn how play one. they used to have steam piano and they were audible for miles<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That must have been extremely loud up close.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are doing over there on this fine evening?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am good thanks. How are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm doing groovy over here. Are you a fan of tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not so much. I heard that the longest tennis match in history went on for 11 hours. I definitely would not want to watch that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What if you had money on it though? That would make it worth it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I would be more interested in the helicopter that dried the grass tennis courts for the 1969 US Open.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess hair dryers were not powerful enough then. A helicopter? That's a rich person's solution.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And wait, grass tennis court? I wonder how well the ball bounced. Probaby grass cut really short but still.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, there are three kinds of courts. I guess grass has its effect on the ball. Do you use Google much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah, more than I shoud. I know I'm not the only one. In 2013 Google went down for five minutes and took 40 percent of web traffic with it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user People are so dependent on the Internet. If civilization collapsed, the first thing they would do is search Google for a solution.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kind of related, but I have totally tried to Google things when my power is out. Haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user We can't help it! Easy to get knowledge that provides answers to daily problems. Not there when I was a kid.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Google's unofficial slogal is "Don't be evil" but I sometimes think it is evil. They calculate traffic by tracking how fast Android devices are moving on the road.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They are spying on us, even right now! But they do like dogs, which is pretty good right there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And they did hire live goats to mow their lawns once. That is pretty kewl.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would become a goat there if it got me stock options.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha. So speaking of Google, I just Googled Borg vs. McEnroe. It is about one of the greatest tennis games ever played. Would you watch it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would watch. I don't think I'd bet on the outcome though. Isn't there some movie about them two?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I think that is the title. Shia LaBeouf stars as McEnroe. I am not really too into sports movies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's probably mostly about personalities. McEnroe was intense. Borg was Swedish. That's enough personality for one film.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, hilarious. I will have to check it out!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello! Are you a tennis fan or do you play?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, my dad used to, though. It seems like it's too intense for me<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I only tried playing in college to kill time. I stunk up the courts I was so bad. The longest tennis match in history went on for over 11 hours and was spread over 2 days. Crazy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Was that at one of the big competitions, like an open or Wimbledon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure. They once had to use a helicopter to dry the grass courts for the 1969 US open. Bet that dried it fast.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That was the year after the first open when a black player won. But no black player has won since<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. I didn't know that. Polo shirts were originally invented by a tennis player and were later adopted by polo players. Interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So maybe we should really be calling them tennis shirts? Just like sneakers are often called tennis shoes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol Good point! They say that 5000 year old shoes perform better than modern shoes. I question that... lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same. How do people know? How many pairs have survived since then? And what constitutes better performance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no idea. I bet those would be some smelly shoes though! They say putting a dry tea bag inside smelly shoes will absorb the unpleasant odor. I'll have to try that to try that on my smelly stinky shoes. Lol lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh wow, I never knew that. I actually have a huge problem with that, so that will help. Surprised I didn't learn that when I googled solutions to that problem (which I've done like 100 times)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm a big googler myself. A single google search requires more computing power than it took to send astronauts to the moon. Crazy how far technology has come since then.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I can't even begin to understand how that makes sense. Then again, I guess computing was done a lot by people by hand back in the 60's<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user When google went down for 5 minutes in 2013 it took 40 percent of the web traffic with it. I don't remember that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't remember that either, but it makes sense. Did you know that Google as a company officially prefers dogs over cats?!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that. I know at one time they used hundreds of live goats to mow the lawns around their headquarters. They really like their animals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah! I guess it wasn't too cost effective to do that with the goats, otherwise they'd keep doing it. Pretty energy efficient, though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree! Good was founded in 1998. I could have sworn I remember using it before then.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I remember being told about it by a teacher in 1999 or 2000. Like I remember her writing it on the board and another teacher telling us it was an intentional misspelling of the number googol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting! I have to get going. It was nice chatting with you! Have a good night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, do you follow tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not really. I just know each player uses a strung racket and they hit a hollow ball.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know Polo shirts were originally invented for tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did know. I know Lacoste shirts had the crocodile and it was a symbol for Rene "the crocodile" lacoste who was a famous player.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep. A black man won the first US open tennis title back in 1968 and no black man has won it since.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! Over 50 years and still holding the record! I think the next year in 1969 they used a helicopter to dry the grass tennis courts for the US open.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. They used a helicopter to dry the grass tennis courts for the 1969 US open.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, they did. The longest tennis match went on for 11 hours over three days. I bet they were exhausted!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's crazy long!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree! It's amazing the facts you can find on Google. Did you know that a single Google search requires more computing power than it took to send Neil Armstrong to the moon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's pretty amazing! I saw that Google maps calculates traffic by how fast Android devices are moving on the road.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I never knew that! I wonder whose? I know I heard that back in the day Google used goats to keep the lawn under control instead of hiring people to mow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's hilarious! Google went down for 5 minutes back in 2013 and took 40% of the web traffic with it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I can imagine. I use it a lot. It's hard to believe its only been around since 1998.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. When there is a dispute on a border, Google maps tailors the map to the claims of each country where the internet browser is located.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds logical. I wish I would have gotten on board with the 2004 initial public offering to buy stock. I can't even imagine the outcome.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I can't either. Do you like shoes?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love shoes!! I know that shoes made 5000 years ago perform better than today's shoes!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's pretty amazing they perform better than the shoes of today!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. I can't see how though. I find it amazing the array of choices like ones that can cost thousands of dollars a pair.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was good chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello do you like tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. Tennis is a racket sport that can be played individually against a single opponent or doubles.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, thanks for the explaination. Did you know that polo shirts were made originally for tennis players?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, It is more comfortable to wear while playing, and it also make the popular of the shirts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They used a helicopter to dry the grass in the 1969 us open lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent In 19th century, modern tennis is originated in England as Lawn tennis.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice, sounds fun! The longest tennis match went on for 3 days! can you imagine?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent When this match happened ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think around 2015<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thanks. The main component of tennis is racket until 1978 a tennis player was allowed to use absolutely any object as racket.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Google was founded in 1998. It is an American multinational technology company that is specialized in internet-related services.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Seems like a long time ago even though it wasnt.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is the biggest search engine and cloud computing service. It also many application like gmail, youtube, etc...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I recently read that a google search requires more computing power than it took to send astronauts to the moon lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Google is the most valuable brand in 2017. Google announced the new company called Calico.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow awesome. Instead of hiring people to mow the lawn, they hired goats.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The company moved to mobile android system the Chrome OS is the light weight operating system.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ok. I recently read that they calculate the taffic by how fast android phones are moving.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is very interesting thing. Technology are used to identify were are we. It affect the privacy of person.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Its been good chatting.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like tennis? I just love to play the sport.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've played it a couple time in high school gym class, I wasn't that good<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i love it! Tennis is a racket sport that can be played individually against a single opponent or in teams<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I watch it sometimes when Serena Williams is playing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah i like to watch her play. Polo shirts were originally invented for tennis by famous player rene "the crocodile" lacoste. i love their colgne for men<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Intresting, the longest match played in a polo shirt was 22 hours<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah if i recall it went over three days or so<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a long time, I don't think I've ever done anything for 3 days straight<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user im not sure if its true but Us open quarterfinalist gael monfils beat the "roger federer of paddle tennis" after learning how to play just days earlier.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Man that's crazy, almost as crazy as using a helicopter to dry grass tennis courts<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah i have heard that as well and though it sounded really dangerous. i wonder if their were people in the crowd?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I hope not, if I was there I'd be cold<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah. In 1998, serena and venus williams said they could beat any man ranked 200 or worse in a game of tennis. they lost when challenged twice lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol, well she did win the australian open when she was ranked 95th<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i have heard Serena williams is a co-owner of the miami dolphins<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that, she speaks french and italian so I wonder if she owns any sports teams in Europe<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user not sure but In january 2007, serena williams was ranked 95th in the world in tennis<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I never knew she was ever ranked that low<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user well she reached the No. 1 ranking for the first time on July 8, 2002 but has since fallen<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, shes so good though, she won a grand slam while pregnant<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess in my opinion her and her sister are kinda overated.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know, maybe<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Have you heard of the new "First Man" film starring Ryan Gosling?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I have not. Please tell me about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's a space movie. He plays the character of Neil Armstrong. It was released Friday.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you watch the movie? Was it really a space movie?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I haven't seen it yet. Today was the first time I heard of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is hard to talk about this movie if we both have not seen it. Can we change the topic?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Let's talk about Earth. It's the third planet from the sun.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Apparently, 80 percent of the earth's natural forests have already been destroyed. It's depressing to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad for sure. Sad that people are the cause of it too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent When the earth was first formed, there was only 5.5 hours long in a day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. I didn't know that. 71 percent of the earth's surface is covered by water. I wonder what covers the polar regions?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ice? I am not sure though. Apparently, earth will be helium free by the end of the 21st century.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Ice is right. It's almost like the history of the earth is like watching a science fiction movie only in real life.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like science fiction. I like to imagine things, like aliens in a different planet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you like Starship Troopers?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, because it is the only science fiction novel recommended by three branches of the military. I wonder why they recommended it though - do you know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have no idea. lol The word robotics was made up by a book writer - Isaac Asimov. Seems like robots and space are always a big theme for science fiction books and movies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent By the way, do you know that the United Nations appointed an ambassador to greet extraterrestrials in case they want to say hello to us?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting! What a job to have! That's just like something out of the movie Star Wars, which came out in 1977 and the value of that franchise is now $65 billion dollar!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. That is a lot of money. I heard that it is currently the 5th largest grossing media franchise.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Initially 20th century fox was convinced that Star Wars was going to be a flop. Wow we're they wrong.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They were wrong indeed. George Lucas got a better deal by forgoing $500k directing fee.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user James Earl Jones only made $7,500 for 2 1/2 hours of work providing the voice for Darth Vader. Thought he would have spent more time and made more money recording that voice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do not think $7500 is a lot of money to provide Darth Vader's voice because the movie was very successful. What do you think?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if the actors get any royalties from the movie?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They should. George Lucas should be generous since he got so much money from Star Wars.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You would think! He's a billionaire from the movie!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Rich people are often cheap.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's sad...but so true. I've seen it too much during my working lifetime where the people at the top get richer and the workers on the factory floor just barely have enough money to live on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if someone was fired at fox because of George Lucas deal. Anyway, I've got to run. Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Dogs or cats?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi! I have two cats, but want a dog. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like dogs more, but dont mind cats! Google likes dogs more though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hah. I see their code of conduct state they are a DOG company.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol, I heard you can bring you dog to work while working there, kind of discriminating against cats though!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kinda odd since dogs are normally louder and more likely to poop somewhere. Looks like Istanbul even has vending machines to release food and water for strays.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is a great point! The US needs to get those vending machines, I would donate so many plastic bottles. That is nice of that country<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder where else the dogs go if not for vencing machines?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user right, they probably go for trash cans unfortunately. Did you know dogs have 12 types of blood?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Makes sense for variety. Apparently they have doggie blood drives too!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that would be so awesome to volunteer at. I will have to look them up. Did you know dogs and elephants are the only animals that respond to pointing, sorry cats<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My cats responding to pointing, and throwing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is true, so I wonder if there are more we don't know about lol. Do you like horses at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I took a horse ride once and live in an area with lots of horses. They are beautiful animals. you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They are so beautiful, I like petting them but never rode one. I wouldn't ride Icelandic horses because they are super fast.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if riders trained horses to do that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am sure they did. I just wouldn't ride horses to school on no vehicle day and get suspended like two students did. I feel that was pointless<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's funny and rather stupid at the same time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure lol, it was so nice talking with you, say hi to your cats for me!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My cats will run away, but sure!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol! bye now!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Crazy that early humans used to have to battle giant sloths! Who would've thought?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right! Humans have been around for a long time apparently I mean we lost our body hair 240,000 years ago!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea that's really interesting. I never knew humans could regrow a rib bone that has been surgically shortened, either.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't know that either. I wonder if other animals can do that? Like can we Harvest Pig ribs for food and then they will regrow that way we don't have to kill the pig haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be awesome! I'm sure science will figure that out someday! We can already use our current technology to date the extinction of ground sloths and determine where ancient human footprints led to.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's really cool. I would love to see that. They should put that in the movie! I think it's cool that humans are adapted for persistence running. We are some of the best animals in the world at it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha yea that would be cool. That's really surprising humans are the best at persistence running! I wouldn't have guessed that. As long as those pesky hiccups don't attack while running! Darn evolution leftovers!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha yep hiccups are so annoying! So is that frequency that causes fear in humans ,have you heard about that LOL?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I had not. So fear comes from sound...? I thought it had to do with the autonomic nervous system, fight or flight thing? That would be really interesting to look into further.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can come from sound. And yes I'm going to look into that further as well. Do you like any animals by the way?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I used to own two cats, no current pets though. I would love to go to Japan and play with some cats at a cat cafe though! haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha that does seem like a great idea! Get a drink and pet a cat LOL. Did you know that a cat will spend 10 years of its life sleeping when it's only 15 years old LOL that's a long time<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is nuts! What I wouldn't give to trade places! Or trade places with Stubbs, the cat who is the mayor of Talkeentna, Alaska! Sounds like a sweet gig.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It does sound awesome! I don't know what kind of work she does but she must be doing a great job lol have you ever seen the movie The Godfather by the way<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right? Haha And yea I've seen the Godfather but it's been a while.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well in the opening scene the cat that they use, I don't know if you remember that part, but it was actually a stray apparently<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, I vaguely remember, that's awesome. Another sweet gig for a cat! Now if only I woulda thought to have one of my cats coauthor a book with me. I guess some physicist did so so that he could use the first person plural without being criticized!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is funny! What do you think about Scotland putting a lot in place to protect the Loch Ness monster? Do you think that means he might exist LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha that is strange. It definitely makes one wonder...maybe the loch ness is some super secret scientific experiment or military weapon? Haha I guess thanks to the Germans, who in 2002 were the first to give animals constitutionally guaranteed legal rights, Scotland can do what it wants concerning the Loch Ness!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The Loch Ness monster should have legal rights to! Did you know that there are 20 quintillion individual animals on planet Earth. I have no idea how many zeros that is but I know it is a lot LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha that is insane. How does anyone even figure out that there's that many animals?! Interesting that domesticated animals develop a white patch on their forehead. I wonder what that's about?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right. like will a fish get a patch of white on its forehead?the only animals that have that that I've ever seen our dogs, so I just don't know LOL<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, Do you like to cook?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love to cook. just not in july when it is so hot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right, it's no fun when it is hot and you're trying to cook. We like to grill a lot outside, which helps not make our home more hot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Grilling out is the best to help with the heat inside the house. If I have to cook in the house i do it early in the morning before it gets too hot.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that's another great idea. We also sometimes eat out if it is way too hot, or eating something like salads or cereal. Where we aren't using heat at all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a great idea. We tend to eat leftovers too and just use the micorwave.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The microwave is great and fast, I agree. Making Icecream is a great way to cool down when it gets too hot. We also tend to use box fans.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent We use a fan for sure. Also started using like a slow cooker or toaster oven not as hot and now can fit up to a whole chicken.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Great appliances help to cook! We love our air-fryer. Though it tends to eat up the area some, so we open the doors and dim the lights to help with the heat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard some people turn their wrist upside down to get their blood flowing to stay cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow great information, I will have to try that sometime. Do you like to eat fish or even go fishing?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love to fish. the oldest goldfish lived to be 43 years old<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow that is a long life for a goldfish! I like to go crabbing too. I heard the seahorse is the only fish with a neck, I<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent THere was a koi fish that lived 226 years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Whoa! That is crazy to know and interesting. I know there is a breed of jellyfish that is immortal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cool the barreleye fish has a transparent head.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Awesome. I heard that saltwater fish dink water through their mouths and through their skin, while a freshwater fish only drinks through their skin. Fish are fascinating.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is pretty cool. Do you like to bird watch?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There are times when i Do like to look at the birds, how about you? Did you know that birds bones are really hollow. So hollow in fact that their skeleton weighs less than their feathers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats neat. They have then thousand living species.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's cool. Some birds are known to fly from Alaska to mexico without sleeping, that is tiring to think about.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent o wow. I wonder how many days that takes. Scientist say birds have regional accents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is cool how they even have accents like humans. My favorite is the hummingbird, they are tiny sometimes about 2 inches long.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They are the smallest birds and the ostrich is the biggest. Some birds don't fly.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user This reminds me of the extinct dodo bird. They were actually a sub-family of pigeons.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent pigeons are one of 3 birds that produce milk for their young.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very cool. Pigeons are very pretty birds.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi do you like tennis?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah! I pick up a racket and hit the net when I can!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice! Did you know that polo shirts were invented for tennis and only later adopted by polo players?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha! That's weird! I didn't know that! Tennis has an interesting history. Did you know that until 1978, a tennis player could use any object as a racket?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice! I wonder if anyone ever tried to use something wacky? A black man won the 1st US open tennis title in 1968 and no black man has won it since.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! Not since 1968? You know, Serena Williams has increasingly found her voice and spoken out against gender and racial inequality.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! Did you know that she speaks fluent French and Italian, as does her sister Venus!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent She is truly fascinating! She does it all! She is the first tennis player, male or female, to achieve the career Golden Slam in both singles and doubles. That means she won at least one Australian Open title, French Open title, Wimbledon title, US Open title, and Olympic Gold medal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's pretty incredible! They used a helicopter to dry the grass tennis courts for the 1969 US Open.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a little before Serena's time! Although, did you know she went pro in tennis at the age of 13?! I could barely even get a ball over the net when I was 13!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol I do remember that. Both her and her sister brought alot of good publicity to the sport.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is for sure! Two girls from Compton came and conquered! In total, Serena has been Number 1 for 319 weeks!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is incredible! The longest match in tennis history went on for 11 hours and was spread over 3 days. Wow!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Are you kidding me! Three days?! That's a long time! I don't have that kind of patience! Speaking of long records... did you know the longest point in pro tennis history was a 643 shot rally?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow! That would have been fun to watch...not so fun for the players. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah! It lasted 29 minutes! I bet it was pretty exhilarating, but also probably pretty exhausting! I would certainly be out of breath after 29 minutes!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol me too. Are you a fan of rap music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah! Tennis reminds me a little of rap, since they're both so fast paced. Did you know the world's fastest rapper can rap at a rate of 14.1 syllables per second?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Holy smokes I wouldn't be able to listen that fast! lol It's been fun chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Then maybe you could try the deaf rapper, Signmark. He rhymes in sign language! You don't have to listen at all! I'm going to go try to find some on the internet. Goodbye!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'll have to look him up! Have a great night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What do you think of Serena Williams?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I really like her!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have you seen the Nike ads?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I haven't but I hear they are really powerful messages in this age of people stepping forward about sexual harassment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is all about there is no wrong way to be a woman.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, ans inequality among races and gender. I like Serena.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I really think she is a great driving force and a good role model to girls.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, definitely! I agree. She is happy to have such a powerful platform to try and pave the way for upcoming generations.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very true. Did you now polo shirts were initially invented be a famous tennis player?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is interesting! Did you know in Tennis years ago you were allowed to use any object as your racket? Haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, like a shoe?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Any object! So yes lol....must have been interesting!! As funny as if you grunt...before a shot...it is by some considered to be cheating!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, there is so much grunting in tennis. The longest match was 11 hours long over 3 days!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, I could never last that long! Speaking of Serena Williams, I didn't know she went pro at age 13! That is amazing....and she is co owner of the Miami Dolphins...wow!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user She co-owns the dolphins and was a pro at 13! Wow, she is really incredible.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think she is! Speaking of amazing...imagine this...the worlds fastest rapper can rap 14.1 syllables per second!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy, can anyone even understand that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not sure but I would love to hear it! Talk about funny, McDonald's at one time paid rappers 5 bucks every time they said Big Mac in their songs hahahaa....crazy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet they were dropping Big Mac lines like crazy!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet they were too! lol! There is even a rapper who is deaf! he raps in sign language, very interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, Id like to watch that. Great Chat! Have a great night!<end_of_turn>
