i do in fact live in moscow when i go there about once a year on
vacation.


We can help you get to stay there...


So how come he can afford to go visit Moscow annually yet can't
afford to move there? I think the fool is lying through someone's teeth.


lol... this is probably the best one yet, folks! priceless!

you see how the bot's brain works: it has just a handful of concepts it
is programmed with, and it is absolutely incapable of thinking outside
that narrow box. you see, in this case this one got into an infinite
cycle on the concept of "affording" something. it now somehow thinks
that i can't _afford_ moving to moscow! where it got that strange idea
(i never mentioned anything like that) is beyond me. but i can assure
you that if i try to unloop the cycle, and explain to it that i can
really afford to move absolutely anywhere in the world, it will simply
short-circuit, reboot and then get itself into the same infinite cycle
again. this is how the brain of a typical well-brainwashed american
lemming works. the only good news here is of course that fortunately not
all americans are as hopeless as this one...

Um, you told us in another thread Deems you couldn't couldn't afford
to move:

"you must be a billionaire... good for you. we, ordinary folks, usually
have to make some compromises in choosing where we work and where we live."

I doubt you are as you say.
