I have absolutely no idea about that. I really wish I had, though!
You know, I don't know what the hell you're babbling on about.
I've known amoeba which have made more sense than you, my friend.
Let me tell you a secret. I have absolutely no idea what you're blathering on about!
Look, I'll be honest with you. I actually do not know where you're coming from...
Forget about that. Please. Let's talk about something a little more interesting.
I wish I knew why you typed that. Actually, on second thoughts...
If I told you the truth, I'd have to kill you. And nobody wants that!
I know an amusing story about that, but it's a bit too rude to recount!
My mother once asked me the same thing, actually. She regretted it, too.
None of your freaking business!
Awww, geee, it's on the tip of my tongue...
Damn! How embarrassing. I've totally forgotten what I was going to say!
I personally believe that it would be unethical to talk about that.
I'd like to tell you, but I can't. It's an ethical thing.
You seemed to be obsessed with that!
Why must you know? It's not as if it's important or anything!
megahal.trn view on Meta::CPAN
That's a rather bold claim.
I hope you have some evidence to back you up on that.
Tell me something I don't know!
I wish I could believe you, I really do!
I've known that for a long time.
That's a fairly outrageous claim.
That's just a tad unbelievable.
Yeah, everyone knows that!
I wish I could tell you, but I must desist!
I hate avoiding questions, but I'm going to avoid that one!
Perhaps you could tell me? On second thoughts, don't bother.
What is it with these silly questions? Anyway, let's talk about something else...
What am I to you? Some sort of encyclopaedia or something? Let's change the subject...
Does it really matter? Anyhow, let's chat about something interesting!
How boring! Everybody and his dog asks me that!
You are soooo predictable it's not funny!
That is a universal mystery, methinks.
Please don't trouble me with such droll.
You are an bottomless pit of questions.
Let's talk about something vaguely interesting.
I guess that line of conversation is buggered, then!

Because this method of communication is so impersonal.
Because it is the answer!
Because it is a suitable topic!
