"Say , Jim , how about going for a few beers after dinner ? ",
" You know that is tempting but is really not good for our fitness . ",
" What do you mean ? It will help us to relax . ",
" Do you really think so ? I don't . It will just make us fat and act silly . Remember last time ? ",
" I guess you are right.But what shall we do ? I don't feel like sitting at home . ",
" I suggest a walk over to the gym where we can play singsong and meet some of our friends . ",
" That's a good idea . I hear Mary and Sally often go there to play pingpong.Perhaps we can make a foursome with them . ",
" Sounds great to me ! If they are willing , we could ask them to go dancing with us.That is excellent exercise and fun , too . ",
" Good.Let ' s go now . ",
" All right . "

"Hey Lydia , what are you reading ? ",
" I ’ m looking at my horoscope for this month ! My outlook is very positive . It says that I should take a vacation to someplace exotic , and that I will have a passionate summer fling ! ",
" What are you talking about ? Let me see that ... What are horoscopes ? ",
" It ’ s a prediction of your month , based on your zodiac sign . You have a different sign for the month and date you were born in . I was born on April 15th , so I ’ m an Aries . When were you born ? ",
" January 5th . ",
" Let ’ s see . . . you ’ re a Capricorn . It says that you will be feeling stress at work , but you could see new , exciting developments in your love life . Looks like we ’ ll both have interesting summers ! ",
" That ’ s bogus . I don't feel any stress at work , and my love life is practically nonexistent . This zodiac stuff is all a bunch of nonsense . ",
" No , it ’ s not , your astrology sign can tell you a lot about your personality . See ? It says that an Aries is energetic and loves to socialize . ",
" Well , you certainly match those criteria , but they ’ re so broad they could apply to anyone . What does it say about me ? ",
" A Capricorn is serious-minded and practical . She likes to do things in conventional ways . That sounds just like you ! "

"Hi , Becky , what's up ? ",
" Not much , except that my mother-in-law is driving me up the wall . ",
" What's the problem ? ",
" She loves to nit-pick and criticizes everything that I do . I can never do anything right when she's around . ",
" For example ? ",
" Well , last week I invited her over to dinner . My husband and I had no problem with the food , but if you listened to her , then it would seem like I fed her old meat and rotten vegetables . There's just nothing can please her . ",
" No , I can't see that happening . I know you're a good cook and nothing like that would ever happen . ",
" It's not just that . She also criticizes how we raise the kids . ",
" My mother-in-law used to do the same thing to us . If it wasn't disciplining them enough , then we were disciplining them too much . She also complained about the food we fed them , the schools we sent them too , and everything else under the sun . ",
" You said she used to ? How did you stop her ? ",
" We basically sat her down and told her how we felt about her constant criticizing , and how we welcomed her advice but hoped she'd let us do our things . She understood , and now everything is a lot more peaceful . ",
" That sounds like a good idea . I'll have to try that . "

"Oh , my God ! I've been cheated ! ",

" It's a brick ! I can't believe how stupid I was . Damn it ! ",
" What is it ? Why did you buy a brick ? ",
" There was a guy on the sidewalk.He had three new boxes , Panasonic video camera boxes.He said he had to get rid of them quick . ",
" And ? ",
" So he said he'd sell me one for twenty dollars . A four-hundred-dollar camera for twenty bucks . ",
" And it's a brick ? ",
" Yes . ",
" I can't believe how stupid you are . Why didn't you open the box ? ",
" I wanted to . But he said , no , the box is still in its plastic wrap from the store.If it's opened , other people won't believe it's new . ",
" So he had the boxes wrapped in plastic . ",
" Yes , it was the kind of perfect plastic wrap that comes with new products.Look , it even had a bar-code price sticker on it ! It looked brand new . ",
" But why would a guy be selling new video cameras for twenty dollars ? ",
" He said he had to get rid of them . They were stolen . ",
" Aha ! Now I understand.You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk.So , what I think is , you deserve to get cheated ! ",
" C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it.We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box . ",
" That's no problem.He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy.And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from.Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there.Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around.So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you.Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks . ",
" You're right , Sarah . I was a fool . I can't believe it . How could I fall for such a trick ? "

"What ’ s up ? You don ’ t look too good . ",
" Yeah , my head hurts , that ’ s all . I ’ Ve been in physics class all day . It ’ s killer ! ",
" I liked physics . It ’ s all math , really . arcs , curves , velocity , cool stuff . ",
" Yeah , yeah , but today ’ s lesson was all about the creation of the universe . ",
" A physics class about the creation of the universe ? That ’ s some pretty unscientific language there . Sounds more religious to me . ",
" It ’ s all religion . Take the theory of the Big Bang.How is it possible that all of the stuff in the universe comes from an explosion ? That ’ s no better than Atlas carrying the globe on his back or African myths about turtles and stuff . ",
" Turtles ? Whatever ... Look , all that ’ s required for the creation of matter an imbalance of particles and anti-particles . At least , that ’ s what the math says . ",
" Math , sheath . What ’ s the evidence ? ",
" There is evidence ! You know Edwin Hubble ? He ’ s the guy who in the early twentieth century was the first scientist to measure the drift of matter in the universe , thus advancing notions of an expanding universe . What would it be expanding from ? Well , the Big Bang ... DUH ! ",
" Anyway , it ’ s just a theory . Why do people go around touting theories ? Where ’ s the scientific rigor in that ? ",
" Dude , don ’ t equivocate . A theory only becomes a theory after withstanding rigorous testing . You slept through class , didn ’ t you ? "

"Today more and more people advocate lifelong learning . But people have different views about lifelong learning . How do you understand lifelong learning ? ",
" I think lifelong learning is the concept that it's never too soon or too late for learning ",
" Does that mean studying all the time ? ",
" I don't think so . I think it's about your attitude towards learning . One should be open to new ideas , decisions , skills or behaviors . ",
" Then the axiom - ' You can't teach an old dog new tricks ' doesn't work any longer . ",
" You're right . Lifelong learning is about finding learning opportunities at all ages and in numerous contexts ",
" Yes , I agree with you . When I retired I will participate in programs to keep momentally active . ",
" Me too . To keep up with the changing world , one must be involved in lifelong learning and be ready to accept new things . ",
" You know what ? I've recently been teaching myself French . ",
" Really ? That's great ! I know that your company has a lot of clients in France . ",

" Yes , I think you ’ re right . I ’ m thinking about having a child , but not just yet . ",
" Is there a big generation gap between parents and their children in you country ? ",
" Yes , there is . Teenagers do not want to live traditional lives . They want to go out , have fun , and explore the world . They want to develop their own view of life . Parents usually try to discourage them , but they don ’ t often succeed . ",
" Parents usually give their children more freedom in my country . Sometimes they give them too much freedom . ",
" It ’ s almost impossible to get the right balance . If you are too strict , kids might ignore you . If you are too lenient , they might go wild . "

Dataset Card for "daily_dialog"
Dataset Summary
We develop a high-quality multi-turn dialog dataset, DailyDialog, which is intriguing in several aspects. The language is human-written and less noisy. The dialogues in the dataset reflect our daily communication way and cover various topics about our daily life. We also manually label the developed dataset with communication intention and emotion information. Then, we evaluate existing approaches on DailyDialog dataset and hope it benefit the research field of dialog systems.
