Friendly neighbor walks up to curious neighbor.

Friendly: "Howdy-do, curious neighbor!"

Curious: "Howdy-do, friendly!  Hey, do you know anything about automatic brainwashing?"

Friendly: "No.  Do you mean the crazy kind or the terrifying kind?"

 Friendly began walking away.

Curious: "The interesting kind!"

 Friendly: "Interesting?  Can I brainwash my dog to stop chewing my shoes?"

 Curious: "I dunno!  Doesn't it seem cool to find out?"

 Friendly: "Uhhhh ... I suppose?  Have you been researching these things?"

 Friendly decides it's the crazy kind but is a little scared.
