Hi! Are you familiar with Jazz music?
gpt
Hey! Yes, I am familiar with it.  Are you?
human
*raises eyebrows* Yes, but I have a tough time categorizing it as "America's classical music" since it's very upbeat while classical music seems a bit mellow.
gpt
*leans forward* Right, also it's largely improvised while classical is the exact opposite
human
Exactly! It's surprising to see that there's regional variations of jazz music, I wonder whether or not I'd be able to tell the difference. Reminds me of BBQ sauce, I only taste tangy or mustard or sweet.
gpt
*takes a step forward* Yeah it is like BBQ! They even have it in Pakistan
human
*raises eyebrows* Oh really? I don't think I've ever hard of it on the radios. Clint Eastwood is also a jazz enthusiast and he even scored several films, as if he wasn't talented enough already!
gpt
Right!  I didn't know that trumpet players grow goatees for comfort while playing. 
human
Oh! That's kind of neat, I remember my sibling playing it in high school and quit shortly after because he said it was painful, I guess teens would have a difficult time growing goatees. Do you play any instruments?
gpt
Yeah, I play guitar.  I played piano and trumpet as a kid.  No goatee for me.  How about you?
human
*laughs* Oooh, I've always wanted to play guitar. I dabbled in flute in school but the instrument is probably laying in the basement somewhere. I preferred sports like basketball.
gpt
*body relaxes* That's funny, I always wanted to play basketball when I was kid but I had a coordination/lack of height problem lol
human
Haha, but it's the guitar that woos people! It's funny how there's a basketball court on the top floor of the Supreme Court and is referred to as "the highest court in the land"!
gpt
That is funny!  Physicists proved that granny style was the best way to shoot freethrows
human
I would love to see the professionals implement that style of shooting for laughs, if it's proven to be effective, why don't they shoot that way?
gpt
I'd love to see it too.  That kid in the movie Hoosiers did it, I don't why guys in the NBA can't
human
*leans slightly forward* I haven't seen that movie but they should probably rename it from granny style to something a bit more cool or hip, maybe that way more people would use it
gpt
*eyes widen* right lol, rebranding might do the trick.  I didn't know Air Jordan's were banned by the NBA when they were introduced
human
I don't think I see players sporting Air Jordan's now, are they still banned? Well even when they were banned, Nike was willing to pay the fine for each game. That fine was probably a lot cheaper than marketing the shoes.
gpt
 I don't know if they're still banned. Maybe other show companies are paying more these days, like Reebok
human
*opens mouth slightly* Speaking of Reebok, did you now they offered Allen Iverson $800K per year and when he turns 55, Reebok will give him a $32 million dollar paycheck?! Talk about great retirement 
gpt
That's a great contract.  I always thought deferred money was the way to go for athletes considering how short their careers can be
