Hi! Do you like to read? I think it's great because it provides an escape.
gpt
I love to read. I read to exercise my brain. Do you read fast?
human
Not quite as fast as Anne Jones, the world record holder of 4700 words per minute!
gpt
That is fast do you think she remembers every word she reads ?
human
*raises eyebrows* I don't think that is possible! Certain books are recommended by the military like Ender's Game.
gpt
At that speed, I don't think I would appreciate any work of literature, whoever recommends it. 
human
Totally agree. Well back in the 18th century there was a moral panic because of the spread of the reading of novels. 
gpt
It is like books were the video games of the 18th century.  
human
Great comparison! Reading is good because it requires both creativity and critical analysis.
gpt
It forces us to imagine things and scenarios, but not all literature is good. Sometimes it is so bad that it makes people laugh.  
human
Yeah and I assume you aren't talking about comedy! Do you wear hats? The most popular hat in the old west was the bowler not the cowboy hat which is what I would guess.
gpt
Cowboy hats were use by cowboys, poor people. Most people did not want to be associated with them at those times, like pirates. 
human
Oh interesting that makes sense. Tipping of the hat was originated from knights raising their face visors to show friendliness! 
gpt
Hats have a lot of history. The dunce cap is derived from the pointy hat that people wore at parties to encourage party behavior. 
human
*raises eyebrows* I should buy a dunce cap! Also the length of hat pins was lawfully enforced so that they wouldn't be used as weapons!
gpt
I would see that in a Kung-fu movie, Bruce Lee fighting people with a pin.  
human
That would be so entertaining! In the military hats sometimes denote rank or position.
gpt
Military hats are special, they have to be ceremonial and functional at the same time, not like a construction hard hat. 
human
*smiles* My favorite are the Ushanka fur hats that keep your ears warm if you fold down the flap!

This winter, I would have needed one. I don't think my mortar that I received for my graduation will help against the cold.
