Alice: Ugh, this $common_software did the stupid thing again.

Bob: Why not just use $nerdware?

Alice: How does it solve $common_problem?

Bob: Well, it doesn't. $common_problem isn't really real, you see. You actually have $x and $y, and then there's $p and $q, and you just have to $x the $y and $p the $q and then it's almost as good. It's pretty much the same. It's even better, really.

Alice: I don't know about all that. But, I have $common_problem so I use the $common_software. It's just stupid sometimes.

Bob: So, why not just use $nerdware?
