Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
WCDT Strips 3541 to 3545 (7th August to 11th August 2017)
ProvenNonsense:
This series of comics is pretty good, because it irrationally irritates me. I have a lot of anxiety, but all of my anxiety is because of rational issues (I tell myself), but anxiety for the most part is not rational, so the comical exaggeration really highlights that. So, again, to reiterate, good comics.
Is it cold in here?:
How do synthetics feel about damage to their bodies?
They don't have pain to fear the way organic people do. The repairs are faster. Is it more like the way organics feel when their car is damaged?

Good simile. The Spookybot arc demonstrated that violation of the mind is far more serious to AIs than violation of the chassis.

Punchbot seems to have too little concern for chassis damage, and Pintsize is always ingesting substances that damage his innards. Perhaps some analog to pain would be beneficial. I would like to hear Faye's opinion on that matter, specifically with regards to Punchbot and Pintsize.
Stoutfellow:
On the other hand, Melon and May both seemed very upset about their, er, injuries. Two different types of injury there: dismemberment for Melon, disfigurement for May. May actually seemed to take hers harder, but then Melon seemed basically sanguine about things (with the possible exception of money).
