Maybe we shouldn't ask "why" questions about Pintsize, but I've got one

<< < (5/5)

DSL:
I know the one Blackjoker's talking about, and went hunting in the archives and the transcript searches, unsuccessfully. It's Pintsize and Winslow talking on the couch, Pintsize getting steadily more outrageous (early suggestion was to repaint Hanners's apartment in hot pink and black). Winslow starts by commiserating with Pintsize about having an off day, but as PS gets more desperately disgusting, ends the strip with:  "Seriously, stop trying."

pwhodges:
890 - it's in the section that the search doesn't have indexed.

DSL:
Yes. Thanks.

It might also be something on the line that since her father was a major player in the creation of AIs that he may have either instilled a 'play nice' circuit in his creations or that Pintsize fears what 'God' might do to him if he hurts Hannelore. Also Pintsize seems to try to avoid being overtly malicious to anyone except Marten, there was one comic where he kept trying to come up with something to do to Hannelore and it ended up getting more and more grotesque to the point where Winslow told him to just let it go and try again another day.

FTFY.

Mostly I'd say you're right. In fact, I think he's often the target of an almost psychotic degree of overreaction from some of the female cast members.

He is sometimes truly unspeakably malicious to Marten though.
