On the contrary. I think Spendi- asks 'difficult' questions. Not that the questions themselves such as "don't you agree?" or such, but what he is getting you to agree with is difficult to answer because it can sometimes be difficult to discern whether it is being said tongue in cheek or he just expects all to agree with him.
Nes pas?

It is all right to ask personal questions, they might not be answered, but you can ask regardless.
pragmatic, probably to Madrid, but not 9/11. The bombs
were not strong enough (could have been though) to
do further damage. My interpretation is: it was a warning,
just like the one in Madrid.
(have to go now)...

Sometimes we answer in detail, sometimes with the same detached query--
Do we mind answering questions?

I suppose I wouldn't be here if I did.
Aren't people fascinating?

Fascinating in the manner of surprise... surprised when they learn it takes more than intellect and articulation to survive-- also takes courtesy, tact and a certain amount of affection.
Am I waxing philosophical on a Wednesday?

Yes, but I always enjoy it when you do ollady. You seem to have acquired a lot of wisdom and have a pleasing way of sharing it.
How do you most enjoy spending your days when you are free from day to day responsibilities?

Lounging in a hammock with two young ladies sat on the grass knitting me things while waiting for me to get randy again.
Is there anything better?

Yes, because I have given up work in favour of genteel poverty. It wins every time!
Do you?

More often than not, if I just shirk (as I am now)
Do you ever iron? (as in a laundry basket full- not the occasional shirt)

Yes, I let it accumulate to a huge mountain and when
I can't stand looking at it any longer, then I'll start
ironing.
WHy won't we be spared of housework?

Because not enough women have designed the right robots, machines etc. that are supposed to help us (and no, I don't iron )
Why do women iron more than men?

Why would I? What's all my own doing? Creasing clothes? I am not counting myself in the ironing question, I am not counted as a woman for this purpose.
Do you like to goad?

She didn't say spendius. Don't look over your
shoulders too often - there is no one.
I gather, you don't like ironing?

I can't remember.We had to iron our uniforms.There were no ladies to do it for us as we had thought was the right and proper thing.After that things went back to normal.And it's a while ago and I can't remember whether I liked it or not.
If I were forced into a corner and had to have a guess I would say that I probably shouldn't like it.But it might depend what I was ironing.
