You know I meant the comic-specific subsection not the rest of the forum, right? I didn't think I added much to the weekly comic discussion threads.

Yeah, I know, but I don't seem to have the attention span to be properly part of a forum community these days - I just check this after I read QC, often to my regret. You have just been consistently making the points I would, only more succinctly, in the face-palm discussions that have come up recently. Don't mind me though. :P

Well I'm glad someone else agrees with my points.
I'll stick around on the WCDTs then and see what happens. But if discussion continues to delve into the same level it has been doing lately, I think I'm going to have to step away for my own mental wellbeing because there have been times on here where I've felt like there are forumites who if they knew me, would think I should be ashamed of myself.
Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: Drunken Old Man on 16 Feb 2014, 12:37 ---How sad would that be? That Marten has done so much for the people around him but, in order to get help with his own life, he'd need to get a robot?
--- End quote ---
Robots are people too, and one chosen for stability and empathy by the adoption agency could be better for him that the slowly recovering emotional cripples who surround him now. It's noble that he helps fix them but he may be using that as a distraction from confronting what he's going to do with his own life.
AIs can succeed as therapists and life coaches. Station made a critical difference to Hannelore, for example.

Point excellently well made and conceded.
