Just what is Pintsize's deal?
1. He's a sort of troll who likes freaking out people by pretending to be transgressive - 14 (21.9%)
2. He is actually one of the world's greatest behavioural psychologists trying to help Marten and Faye with a carefully-planned series of fake actions - 13 (20.3%)
3. He has impulse control problems, does stupid things on a whim and doesn't think about possible consequences - 11 (17.2%)
4. He actually thinks that this is tremendously funny and doesn't get everyone's reaction - 9 (14.1%)
5. He's just a pervert but with more metal than most - 6 (9.4%)
6. At first it was just curiosity and a one-off practical joke but it's become a bit of a habit he's never bothered to shake - 5 (7.8%)
=7. He's a weird kind of abstract archetype that Jeph created of the whole concept of an AI having any sexuality at all - 3 (4.7%)
=7. Other reason (real world) - 3 (4.7%)
x. Other reason (in-universe) - 0 (0%)
A surprisingly close result this time! It seems odd that one of the oldest characters in the strip should generate such divided opinions as to his motives. I genuinely would have expected more people to have selected one of the "He's just an asshole" options or for the views of the character to be more settled!
Tova:
The motivations of Pintsuze have been debated for some time afaik so I'm as little surprised at your surprise.
We've only ever really known him on a superficial level, so while he's outwardly the simple prankster, there have been a small number of hints that there's more going on, so of course there will be diverse opinions.

Thinking of Pintsize, does anyone remember when "the day" from Zach Weiner's guest comics is? I vaguely seem to remember it being in 2017, but I'm not sure.
