A:I just saw 'Something About Mary' last night. It was hilarious.
B:David took me to it last week. I thought it was a little sick.
A:What do you mean 'sick'? It was really funny, don't you think?
B:It was entertaining in some ways. But in general I didn't like it.
A:Why not?
B:I just think the humor was too gross. There were too many disgusting things in it. I don't think a comedy has to have so much smut to be funny.
A:It wasn't a dirty movie. There wasn't even any nudity.
B:No, you're right. But nudity doesn't bother me. What bothered me were all the jokes about masturbation, stuff like that. It was too sick.
A:Oh, you are too conservative. It's just realistic.
B:I don't think it's realistic. I thought it was sick. Why does a movie have to use that kind of humor?
A:People think it's funny.
B:But it was the most disgusting comedy I've ever seen. And it was a big budget movie too. It wasn't just a low-budget film you can see on cable TV.
A:I told you, you are conservative.
B:I'm not really conservative. But some new movies are just vulgar. If they become popular, it proves that people are vulgar.
A:I'm really surprised at this. I didn't think you were like this.
B:I'm not what you think, A. Did you see the movie 'Everyone's Nightlife'?
A:Yes. I think it's good.
B:That was a movie about sex too.
A:I agree. But what do you think of that one?
B:I thought it was excellent.
A:Yes, I suppose.
B:So maybe you can see now that I'm not conservative. But I have a sense of value. 'Something About Mary' depends on gross humor. But 'Everyone's Nightlife' depends on drama. They are both about sex, but they are different.
A:Hmm. I will have to think about it.
