Way back in the 286 days, there were some “expert systems” that could be programmed to do some interesting test parsing and responses, some folks tried to make decision-tree stuff based on this. ESIE was the one I recall messing with, but it’s so old it can’t be looked up on a current search engine without being buried in more modern uses of the name (including a DOS emulator, apparently).
Probably wouldn’t be hard to spend a few days putting together a half-hour or so of “girl chat” using a system like that. Especially given how predictable the text entries I think we all know this particular software would get.

Not only is the picture beautiful, but the text alludes to what is the most important part of my life. What a wonderful dream-filled package!
