Cleverbot: Good, how are you?

User: Fantastic! Just chillin’ with my macbook and a glass of wine.

Cleverbot: Kinda sad.

Cleverbot: I forgot to celebrate Ostara.

User: Wow, did you ask for forgiveness?

Cleverbot: Yes, are you American?

User: I am American, why do you ask?

Cleverbot: You’re not smart.

User: Seriously? Did you intend to insult me?

Cleverbot: No no.
