A few funny dialogues.
- I’ve got to tell you something: I broke your vase.
- Ah, no problem. I realize that it was an accident. Actually, I didn’t like it very much.
- No problem?? How can you be so unconcerned about precious things! You’ve always been careless and wasteful.
- ??? But it’s YOU who’s broken my vase…
- Shame on you, you ingrate! How dare you to blame me for this trifle, when I’ve done so much for you!

- Please, sit down, help yourself. The watermelon is yummy!
- Thank you, but actually I don’t like watermelons. I’ll have some coffee if you don’t mind.
- You don’t like watermelons? It’s impossible that someone does not like them. You've probably never tried them.
- You're kidding? Of course I have. I just don’t like watermelons, though I like many other fruits. No problem, coffee will be quite enough.
- It just means, all the watermelons you’ve tried before weren't ripe. Just try this one!
- No, thank you, I really don’t like them. Don’t bother, please. I’m enjoying my coffee.
- But I care about you: you deprive yourself of such a pleasure! Please, try just a small piece, you’ll like it for sure!
- Damn. Could you leave me alone about your watermelon?
- How rude and how stubborn you are!

- Don’t sign the contract tomorrow, your horoscope strongly recommends not to do it!
- Thank you, but you know I don’t believe in horoscopes.
- You may be mistaken about it, just don’t take the risk.
- Since I don’t believe in it, I don’t think I’m risking anything.
- Why do you always think that your opinion is right?
- Since it is my opinion, of course I think it is right. Does anyone think that his own opinion is wrong? Is it possible to have some opinion and to consider it wrong at the same time??
- But why, exactly, should your opinion be right?
- Listen, what do you want from me? Do I suggest that you not believe in horoscopes? Do I hinder you from your belief in it?
- Of course you do, because you don’t accept my sincere advice. Why should you be so arrogant as not to follow kind advice of your friend?
- Damn!
