I had the following experience today morning : preceded by '--' is me.
---------
Please, describe your problems.
-- i am feeling dull
Why do you say you are feeling dull?
-- because I have to use emacs
Is it because you have to use emacs that you came to me?
-- i had to, didnt I?
Earlier you said you have to use emacs?
-- so? I have to use emacs !!
Emacs? Hah! I would appreciate it if you would continue.
-- continue using emacs?
Are you sure?
-- eh?
Can you elaborate on that?
-- how should I?
Perhaps you could continue.
-- you may be right
Maybe your plans have something to do with this.
-- dont talk about my plans, I dont have any
Are you afraid of that?
-- I want to kick your butt
What makes you believe you might want to kick?
[at this point I gave up]
no, it was not someone from c.l.l - it was the emacs psychotherapist!

What?
