sorry...does your head hurt a bit then? i hope not everyone bangs your head off walls.

No, people bang their own heads against the wall!!

that's ok, then...so long as it's a choice and no-one's forced to headbutt a wall if they don't want to.

No, it's their own choice.

thats good to know

so do you spend much time headbutting walls or do you choose not to?

I choose not to.

that's good to hear

asprin companies would probably love it if more people headbutted walls though. it'd boost their prifits bigtime.

Interior decorators would do quite well too, I imagine.

and thpeople that make all that padded stuff they put on the walls of padded cells

Yes, I suppose they do.

why would anyone really want to bash their head off a wall anyway?

well i suppose i have to admit that being trailed round shops sometimes makes me want to.

Being taken seriously when you tell a joke does it for some people.

true. though maybe it depends on the joke, who tells it and who's being serious.

so that's what does it for you then? or do you just like being the serious person?

I'm usually the serious person.

so why'd you decide to be serious then?

I felt like it.

sounds like a good enough reason. you never get fed up being serious though?

Yes, I do. In that case I act like a complete looney, wich often catches people off-guard.

good to hear

doing what people don't expect can be quite amusing

This is true.
