You're not in a minority there. The way words get used in common vernacular often differ wildly to how the same words get used in engineering terms. I think it's because words in physics and engineering contexts have to be precise and predictable because the whole point of the field is to describe phenomena as precisely and predictably as possible, whereas trying to hold that level of precision and predictability in casual conversation is difficult, unnecessary, and boring. In fact, I'm pretty sure pedants (like me!) Are just folks who are bothered by that gap in precision. Some common examples are mass vs weight, heat vs temperature, acceleration vs deceleration, centrifugal vs centripetal. The list goes on for a long while.

The discussion is happening, but it's being expressed in the form of interpretive dance

Similar social standing, though, in a tier that could generally afford bowlers but probably not Homburgs.

--- Quote from: Jakk Frost on 22 May 2018, 17:55 ---You know, looking back a couple of days at the poker game, it occurs to me it might be kind of funny and cool to maybe come to some kind of arrangement with other webcomics that have AI characters or sidekicks, and have them all sit down for a poker game now and then, whenever any particular webcomic feels like doing an issue with them.
I don't know too many, personally, since I don't read a lot of webcomics anymore, but you could have Pintsize or Winslow from here, X-Bot from CAD, maybe one of the AIs from Quantum Vibe. Like I said, I don't know of too many bots in webcomics, but I'm sure there's more.
Maybe even have guest cameos from more famous robots, if copyright isn't a big concern; like Bender from Futurama, Rosie from The Jetsons, Robot from Lost in Space, etc.

im sure David Willis wouldn't object to Ultracar(la). Some of the others in the cast have survived the Soggies.

I've had Ultracar and Malaya on my mind since Bubbles and Faye just got intimate and the questions surrounding that. As I recall Ultracar really didn't care for Malaya to do anything to her chassis, but didn't mind using her servos to pleasure her and it was a sexual relationship that worked for them. Perhaps it's the same with Bubbles. She doesn't need Faye to do anything we'd recognize as sexual conduct to her chassis except enjoy what pleasure Bubbles provides.

--- Quote from: fayelovesbubbles on 22 May 2018, 18:12 ---On another note, am I crazy or did anyone besides me think that Faye letting Bubbles walk in when she wasn't wearing pants was her way of trying to bring things to a conclusion? Turned out it was the back rub, but I feel like the "You said you were decent!" thing was Faye being a little mischievous.

I read that as just Faye being fairly clueless. She likely read Bubbles' discomfiture as some sort of prudishness, not attraction.
And Faye wasn't actually nekkid or anything -- she's walked around in front of Marten in a t-shirt and underwear.
And let's not forget Faye's history -- she is remarkably good at and stubborn about ignoring and diverting the contents of her own head. Up to a point.
Overall, this relationship is built on very solid foundations. They've both become much healthier and stronger people, thanks to each other and all they've experienced. Heck, they even figured out how to resolve conflict in healthy ways. How many human couples ever get that right?
They'll continue to "figure it out".

I got along great with my college roommates but yes I definitely saw more hairy asscrack than I ever intended
