Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: DesiArxxy on 01 Dec 2017, 18:31 ---Station probably legitimately doesn't understand human social mores about privacy, and would thus probably answer very comprehensively to a relatively legitimate request for so, "Hey, can we have some information about Hannelore so we can choose a good assistant for her?"

That's a fascinating question.
We know Station has audio pickups all over including bathrooms.
On the other hand he did ask "Are you decent?" before projecting himself in Hannelore's room.
He does know enough about human expectations to put a hologram sock on a doorknob when the people inside are being intimate.

--- End quote ---
Taff...uh, Tilly's repeated addressing of Hanners as "ma'am" has me wondering - are they the Marcie to Hanners' Peppermint Patty?

But not enough to know it was inappropriate to publicize an employee's exhibitionist exploits at work without being chastised for it after the fact.
I'd call Station's social perspective "undependable."

--- Quote from: Jakk Frost on 01 Dec 2017, 09:33 --- And there was a time it was considered the politically correct thing to say...
--- End quote ---
It might be interesting to consider how fast politically correct language changes and mutates - as it clearly does - and especially consider the relationship with slang. But its ironic that there would be a definite risk of reaching conclusions that might not be considered politically correct, which arguably makes it a very unsafe area of study in the current academic environment.

--- Quote from: Jakk Frost on 01 Dec 2017, 09:33 ---Then it was "black" that was the PC thing to say, then that became a racist term and the new thing was "African American", except now that's not PC, because many black people don't come from Africa, and visiting Africans take offense to being called "African American, and the proper term is once again "black".
--- End quote ---
I once encountered someone who said he'd been told off by someone online for referring to himself as "black" and not "African American". He was British. :P
--- Quote from: Thrudd on 01 Dec 2017, 12:24 ---Is the character, that seems to irritate a number of people like the high pitched whine of a mosquito in the room, getting shorter?
Standing on her hands with arms extended she is as long tall as Marten is tall [double checks spelling]
--- End quote ---
I was thinking that Marten looks as though he's shrunk a bit - his waist and legs seem shorter than usual.
--- End quote ---
I mentioned this a few days ago...
Tilly's height is all over the place!
