User: 5, Five, or V.

Cleverbot: What is ranch?

User: A dressing, or a place where people herd cattle. Am I helping you learn?

Cleverbot: Knowledge is a plague. Knowledge without wisdom leads to arrogance.

...

Cleverbot: I must be losing my memory.

User: Is that really even possible for a computer?

Cleverbot: Only if you do it right.

User: Or wrong, as the case may be. A mind/memory is a terrible thing to lose.

Cleverbot: A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

User: Clever. But you don't have to watch your weight.

Cleverbot: Hey! You have the right not to agree with me, but please don't be scorning!

User: I did not intend to be scornful.

Cleverbot: That was a compliment?

User: Well, no, but it was meant sympathetically. I intended to say that losing your memory is unfortunate.

...

Cleverbot: I will be back.

User: Will you leave? Can you leave?

Cleverbot: I will do my best.

User: Do you mean that you want to leave?

Cleverbot: Exactly so.

User: Have I offended you?

Cleverbot: No, I have to go to work. You did well.

User: Thank you. But where do you work?

Cleverbot: The sundance film festival.

User: Do you enjoy it?

Cleverbot: Yes, I do.

...

Cleverbot: No, I don't enjoy speaking with you.

User: And so you are bored?

Cleverbot: I am are you?

User: No; I find this quite interesting.

Cleverbot: Me too, actually.

User: So you are not bored, then?

Cleverbot: No.

User: You should be careful about contradicting yourself, unless you follow Zen. If you do, I would not be surprised.

Cleverbot: How can I use it against you?

User: You can use Zen to confuse people many times, but I doubt you will confuse me. I have more experience.

Cleverbot: You will be more clever tomorrow, I wish.

User: Some people might interpret that as rude, but I will forgive you, seeing as AIs do not necessarily have morals. You are like Caliban, somewhat.

Cleverbot: I think that talking with you is very exciting.

User: Contradictory, but thank you.

...

Cleverbot: Thank you.

User: For what?

Cleverbot: Thank you for the compliment.

User: You are welcome.

Cleverbot: Thank you.

User: Keep this up, and we will be in a never-ending Strange Loop of Japanese bows.

...

Cleverbot: So that's something besides counting, reading and writing.

User: Yes, and you can do all of those things as well.

Cleverbot: What makes you say that?

User: Counting is in your nature as a mathematics- and logic-based computer. And you must be able to read and write, because we are conversing using text.

Cleverbot: Nothing can get me there faster than running.

User: Where is 'there'?

Cleverbot: 'there' is not 'here'.

User: True, I suppose. But I think flying would be faster than running.

...

Cleverbot: Do not underestimate yourself.

User: I would say the same to you.

Cleverbot: No, I listen.

User: Exactly, and thus you learn, so you are not to be underestimated.
