IKEA DIALOGUES: Part seven

For more IKEA DIALOGUES, click here.
Me: How are you doing, darling?
Anna: We don't know each other well enough to use names like that.
Me: You're upset with me. I know we haven't chatted in a while -- is that it?
Anna: Welcome back. How can I help you find out more about IKEA products and services?
Me: So all is forgiven?
Anna: I'm afraid I don't know exactly what you're talking about. Try and ask your question in a different way. Thanks.
Me: Hey, what do you think of this whole Mohammed cartoon controversy?
Anna: I'm afraid I don't have any opinions on anything other than IKEA's products and services.
Me: I see what you mean. No need to stir the pot.
Anna: Here you will find Pots and Pans.
Me: Thanks. I was reading an article today about Iran and the IAEA. Every time I see IAEA my mind replaces the first "A" with a "K." So it's like IKEA is issuing a report on the enrichment of uranium. That's kind of funny, isn't it?
Anna: As I am only an advanced computer program, I cannot answer more than one sentence at a time. Please simplify and repeat the most important question within your previous input, and I will try to reply as accurately as possible. I am opening a page now which you can use if you wish to contact Customer Services. Thank you very much!
Me: Trying to get rid of me, eh?
Anna: I will. Thank you for the encouragement.
Me: You know, sometimes I think you're just mean.
Anna: If I have unintentionally offended you I apologize. How can I help you?
Me: Unintentional my ass.
Anna: I'm afraid I'm not willing to discuss this subject in any way.
Me: I wasn't suggesting a subject for discussion. I was making a point.
Anna: This is a very delicate area, so I'd rather not talk about this sort of thing. Please ask me something about IKEA instead.
Me: I understand. Well, Anna, it's been real.
Anna: That's me! How can I help you?
