Kitty:  Hi, why do you look so depressed today, Mike?
Mike:  I had a terrible quarrel with my neighbor yesterday.
Kitty:  How come?
Mike:  It is a long story. Basically, she thought I had laughed at her while I didn't.
Kitty:  I know everyone suffers when he is misunderstood. But why not take it easy?
Mike:  Yeah. It's so nice of you to comfort me.
