Text message conversation, properly capitolized and with added punctuation for your reading pleasure:

 

aseidman: What is so undignified about thought bubbles? Prof Dalke asked.

Dave Joria: Because our natural state of being is to know only one person's thoughts at a time. Captions are normally stuck to one person and are more contemplative.

aseidman: So, it's all about making it a more realistic experience? Pithy!

Dave Joria: You realize that you are being graded in this class, not me. Right?

aseidman: But you have such brilliant things to say.

Dave Joria: Flattery, on the other hand, will get you everywhere.
