Oh?

*sits on the couch*

Ego: Why are you sitting here?

Chow: Because I'm not standing there.

Ego: Why are you lazy?

Chow: Because I'm not hardworking.

Ego: Why...

Chow: I'm here because I'm not there. I'm alive because I'm not dead. I'm this therefore I'm not that. There is no reason for anything.

Ego: Then who are you?

Chow: I don't know.

Ego: Where are you going?

Chow: I don't know.

Ego: Where are you now?

Chow: I'm here. I'll always be here.

Ego: Why here?

Chow: Because not there.

Ego: ...

Chow: You idiot. You think you can just come here and ask me silly questions? Go away. I am not interested in wasting time with you.
