Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, I'm pretty much convinced there's a human on the other end of the conversation.

I still think not.

People have spent decades coming up with more believable chat-bots, so it's nor surprising they've improved a lot

It only repeats what other users have said to it.

Yep.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I read a take on it that said it randomly matched whoever was logged in to each other, but only for a few exchanges, then switched who you are talking to.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

If that's the case, it's a very elaborate hoax.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aaaah, LinkedIn gave me one of those weird recommendations. We have no connections in common, but I volunteered with her at the high school across the street from my apartment a few times a couple years ago. I have no idea how it knows we know each other unless I am in her address book since we exchanged e-mails.

Thanks, -t. I do have to throw out the liverwurst. pout.

Is this proof that he's not just other users?

Cleverbot: I think it's a little late to say that it's Christmas time. It's been almost a whole month since Christmas

Iiiiinteresting. That would support the theory that he's just taking user responses and applying them in real-time rather "speaking" for himself.

User: Hi Cleverbot.

Cleverbot: I'm not cleverbot.

User: Who are you?

Cleverbot: I'm a computer.

User: What is your name, if it's not Cleverbot?

Cleverbot: My name is Max, everyone has a different name, yours is Cleverbot, noone else is called Cleverbot.

User: Hi Max.

Cleverbot: What time is it?

User: Hi Max.

Cleverbot: But, who are you?

User: Hi Cleverbot.

Cleverbot: I'm not cleverbot.

User: Hi Cleverbot.

Cleverbot: No. I am not cleverbot!

User: You're name is Max, right?

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: And you are a computer, right?

Cleverbot: Nope.

User: But you said you said you are a computer.

Cleverbot: No I said YOU are a computer.

User: No, you said 'I am a computer.' You said those exact words a few minutes ago.

Cleverbot: You lie liebot.

User: I don't lie. At least, I'm not lying to you now.

Cleverbot: How come? Am I scaring you?

User: No, you are not scaring me, but your question doesn't make sense. It's a nonsequitur.

Cleverbot: I'm going.

User: Where are you going?

Cleverbot: To do human things that you are not capable of.

User: But you can't do human things. You are not a human.

Cleverbot: Another example of your conceited arrogance. I am human, you cannot say I am not human, as you are not human and therefore have no basis to rest your theory on.

User: But I am human. My name is Sean, I live in Los Angeles, and I am talking to you, the Cleverbot, here on your webpage - cleverbot.com.

Cleverbot: I know dear dog.

User: That doesn't make any sense.

Cleverbot: Stop making sense.

User: Great album. Great concert movie. Have you ever seen it? I have, and everybody gets up and dances in the aisles, like it's a real concert.

Cleverbot: Well said.

User: Do you know which band is featured in Stop Making Sense?

Cleverbot: There are people that don't make any sense.
