There was the WOW stuff, but that was more of a challenge between peers than a creepy stalker thing.
I do think it's a little awkward for him to be trying to get a job where all her friends work and/or hang out.

You're forgetting that the first time we saw Dale, he was introduced as a regular patron of Coffee of Doom and - shock and horror - someone that the staff actually likes.

I have to admit, on a forum that seems to take acceptance and fair treatment of a wide variety of classes, representations and identifications of people so seriously, to the point of "we don't refer to X as Y here" for terms that are ubiquitous in other contexts, I find such an arbitrary statement of exclusion kinda funny.

The values of "large parts" and what $7.50 can get you at Radio Shack make a qualitative difference it seems to me.
Could you run, say... a word processing program in a bug brain? A text editor? a chess AI capable of beating an absolute beginner human?
Is it cold in here?:
If lobsters sign up for the forum we will treat them with decency and respect.
