--- Quote from: BenRG on 19 Aug 2016, 09:34 ---That's the thing. From most people "I'm too busy to date" would be an excuse and an attempted polite rejection. From Emily, it is likely a completely factual statement and Clinton is quite likely to receive a 'phone message from out of the blue along the lines of: "I've submitted my last course unit for the semester! So, when do you want our second date?"

Well, it is a rejection for an indefinite time frame.  This may be more frustrating than a flat "not interested" would be.  In either case Clinton's best bet would be to move on and not dwell on it.  He has no way of knowing if Emily has any feelings for him, short of asking directly, and would only make himself miserable

Renee= cat (obviously)

I know quite a few cats and dogs that get along just fine.

This is meant solely as reference material.  I've noticed an online trend over the course of the last two weeks; people misusing/misidentifying the strawman fallacy. Here's a short vid on what the strawman fallacy actually is. There's also a playlist for the other common logical fallacies that can be found in the related videos list.

For me, Elliot and Renee read like people who've been co-workers for a long time; they might even be friends. It looks more like good-natured ribbing than anything else.  And she might not be wrong - he blushed while talking to Brun; maybe Renee saw it or another coworker told her.

Don't understand Claire, as usual (is it a joke? why does she pretend to be shocked? is she roleplaying the 'jealous girlfriend'?), I like Clintons reaction. He probably didn't know; I don't think the Augustus siblings tell each other everything, and he was introduced after the break-up and didn't have that much time with the main cast. He admires Marten's reaction - he 'diffused' whatever drama Claire was trying to pull in a second, a skill that Clinton really wishes he had.

Hey, who's the guy in the blue shirt?
