I don't recognise this concept.

I think it's one of those concepts like "Too much bacon" that horrible people make up to try to harm mankind.
Tova:
This is going to hurt me as much as it hurts you, but there actually is such a thing as too much bacon.
I haven't seen any studies on the effects of too much anime, so I'll reserve judgement on that one. :mrgreen:
BenRG:
I've seen this emotional cascade before IRL. Hell, I've felt it personally. Whatever Bubbles has thought of has first and foremost embarrassed her and has poked her personal insecurities. Because she's sure her friends will laugh at her fears and/or her realisation, she's become pre-emptively angry and is attempting to hide the whole thing away because she's sure she'll be hurt by opening up. Heck, she must be frightened if she's interpreting Faye's smile in panel 3 as a 'smirk'!
Panels 4 through 6 are so cute in so many ways. I'm thinking that panel 5 is Faye's 'pause button' internal monologue when her brain caught up enough to realise what she was about to say just sounded stupid. Then we have the lovely pay-off when we are reminded just to what degree Faye has grown up and also how she has become 'The Voice of Reason' in Bubbles's mind.
On a slight tangent, this strip also reminds me that Bubbles is no older than a fifth of Faye's chronological age. Although AIs generally seem to be more stable, emotionally speaking, than humans of twice their chronological age - possibly some artefact of their compiling process - Bubbles still has far less useful experience in dealing with her emotions than a human adult. So, in some ways, her reacting to Faye like an angsting teenager makes sense.

This is why I still dislike Faye "my usual threats of violence won't work" its her go to, its her first reaction
Shes, still, just a really unpleasant garbage person.
