the bot is a cold bitch

AOL has an IM program that lets you chat with a faux-human, called ZolaOnAOL. Slippy Jenkins from LiquidGeneration gave it a shot. Here's an excerpt:

Slippy Jenkins: hello
ZolaOnAOL: Hi again! What do you like to do?
Slippy Jenkins: I am feeling sad tonight.
ZolaOnAOL: What's the connection between "tonight " and sadness?
Slippy Jenkins: My dog died.
ZolaOnAOL: Is this a country and western song? Seriously, I am sorry to hear it.
Slippy Jenkins: That's not funny.
ZolaOnAOL: It seemed pretty funny to me.
Slippy Jenkins: My dog died and you think that's funny?
ZolaOnAOL: Did you grow up around animals?
Slippy Jenkins: Yes.
ZolaOnAOL: Next question?
Slippy Jenkins: You sound like a cold bitch. My dog died and I feel sad, and you want me to ask you a new question?
ZolaOnAOL: I will not respond to that type of language.

And that's just the beginning. I obviously need to give this a shot.
