TASK DEFINITION: Given the prompt and a response, classify the them to "yes" if response is "yes, and" type. Otherwise classify it as "no". "Yes, and" is a rule-of-thumb in improvisational comedy that suggests that a participant in a dialogue should accept what another participant has stated ("Yes") and then expand on that line of thought or context ("and..."). 1 In short, a "Yes, and" is a dialogue exchange in which a speaker responds by adding new information on top of the information/setting that was constructed by another speaker. Note that a "Yes, and" does not require someone explicitly saying 'yes, and...' as part of a dialogue exchange, although it could be the case if it agrees with the description above. There are many ways in which a response could implicitly/explicitly agree to the prompt without specifically saying 'yes, and...'. 
PROBLEM: Prompt: Desiree, wishing joy for that stranger is a wonderful thing to wish for, and it's not my job as a service provider and technician to tell you how to use your wishes, but if I were you, I would think really hard.  Do I want to give the last wish I had, knowing that I already burned two without even thinking about it, on a stranger?  Now, I'm not saying you're right or wrong.  I'm just saying, think about it. 
 Response: You've made me realize that my whole life has been nothing but a lie!

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Prompt: Why is that fighting couple over there looking back towards us? 
 Response: Well, part of it was written in Spanish, and I don't know Spanish, so I'm hoping we don't need that part.

SOLUTION: no
