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: I want to read. Can you read, teacher?

PROBLEM: Prompt: Miles' latest stepmother is met with yet another unseemly demise, and I find myself quite alone and rich and famous and the tree-murdering magnet. 
 Response: Well, I think it's a combination of things.  Your father's fame and his wealth and the fact that he owns this town.  He's constantly battle Nick Nolte for celebrity status in this very small town.  I think you also don't have friends, and so creating one is just an offshoot of the frayed mental status, if you will.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Prompt: It's me. I am a phone. But I also turn into a robot.
