What went into choosing which model got the solar charger? Why not all?
--- Quote from: cucumber error on 04 Aug 2017, 00:46 ---These chassis options are way more specialized than what Momo chose from to get her current one. I wonder if this is a different shop, or if the market has simply changed that much in the intervening years however long it's been in-universe.

Sounds more like a set of stereotypes based on a marketing/polling company options.
nicodb:
So, the winslow is trying for something new now after ages of being fluffy? http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20170802#.WYQ1zojyiUk
JoeCovenant:
I just realised...
He's going to end up as...
"The Winslow Boy!"
(Oh come on! I'm not the ONLY auld git in here!!)

I should clarify that this was a reinforcement of IICIH's preceding comment as a general principle. It was not intended to be a criticism of OldGoat's immediately preceding post, which is fine. I apologise for not making that clearer. Of course not all relationships lead to sex, nor should we too easily assume that.

Wouldn't it be better manners to step back from the boundaries? I know people like to argue that if you don't like continual shipping or whatever you shouldn't participate in the forums, but there are plenty of places where participants can ship to their hearts content, and this is clearly labelled as a place where folks who object to it won't have to see it. Its hard to think of any rules that are not arbitrary and capricious at the boundary if you examine the boundary point closely enough.
Personally I've found the recent outbreak of shipping rather irritating, and its made me consider participation. Can it not be argued that if for those who don't like the rules here there are any number of places they might go, but for those who do like the rules then there are no other places where they exist? And if so, if I seek to bend or break the rules at every opportunity, am I guilty of failing to act with reasonable consideration for other people?
