Official transcript

Dilbert asks Catbert, "Any advice?"

Catbert says, "Try to be less like you."

Dilbert, carrying a bunch of flowers, thinks, "That might work."

Dilbert hands the flowers to a female co-worker and thinks, "Less like me... Less like me."

The female co-worker says to Dilbert, "I collect crystals."

Dilbert thinks, "Uh-oh."

The female co-worker says, "I don't know of any scientific evidence that they can heal."

Dilbert thinks, "Whew."

The female co-worker says to Dilbert, "But it's my point of view that they do."

Dilbert says to the female co-worker, "When did ignorance become a point of view?"

Seated in a restaurant reading a menu, Dilbert sits across from the frowning female co-worker and thinks, "Too much like me."
