Just A Simple Boolean Question

Ah, the eternal struggle of asking "Do you want pizza tonight?" and getting "I had pizza last Thursday but my cousin's birthday is coming up and I'm thinking about getting a haircut tomorrow."

Boolean questions expect true/false answers, but non-technical people treat them like an invitation to write their autobiography. Meanwhile, developers sit there mentally trying to parse a 50-word response into a single bit of information.

The worst part? You can't even throw an InvalidCastException at them and walk away.
