Cleverbotting

Cleverbotting is responding to certain key words in an online argument rather than the argument itself in a way that makes no sense to anybody reading the entire conversation.

Person 1: I strongly believe that a hot dog is a sandwich
Person 2: I can't believe you would eat a hot dog, they've been found to contain rat meat!
Person 1: That doesn't have to do with anything, we're discussing whether it's a sandwich not whether it's good.
Person 3: Leave it alone, dude. They're just cleverbotting.
