Classic Vaudeville: Robot and Costello
Costello: Hey, would ya look at that, a terrifying evil robot or something!
Robot: Illogical. does not compute.
Costello: Oh, right. What are you?
Robot: I am.
Costello: You are what? What is your name?
Robot: I am. I exist. I have always been. I search for the creator.
Costello: But what is your name, my robotic friend?
Robot: I do not comprehend “friendship”. You will be eliminated.
Costello: But I just want to know how to refer to you.
Robot: I am.
Costello: You are what?
Robot: No, I am.
Costello: You are?
Robot: Silence your noise hole, biological infestation. My mode of address is irrelevant. I am.
Costello: Your name is “ I am”? Or your name is “what”?
Robot: DIE HUMAN!
