Because Clinton has a crazy pinball machine mind and that's where it bounced.  And since he's not figured out the "filter thing" yet, strange topics will pop out.

IantoSteerpike:
I totally see this more as just an expression of Clinton's overall awkwardness.  And I like that Eliot isn't fazed by it or reading too much into it.  It actually speaks to real potential for the two of them, as long as Clinton can continue on his journey of becoming more open and vulnerable about his feelings and reactions.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 11 Mar 2021, 23:53 ---The point I'm making is: Why raise this issue in the first place? It's obvious that Elliot was talking about cute, huggable furfriends, not the decidedly nightmare fuel end of the animal kingdom. So why mention them? It's almost as if Clinton was trying to discomfort or denigrate Elliot for his statement that he likes all kinds of animals. That isn't a good thing.

Seriously? How are you catastrophizing this? There is nothing unusual about this conversation at all. It's like you are looking for something to rag on.

Is it cold in here?:

Speaking as a nerd, it is the way of my people to test ideas to destruction and be over-literal. So when Elliott said "animals", of course Clinton searched the whole animal kingdom for extreme examples.

As to your point about whether they have a future together, I'm not betting on their compatibility. But we'll find out.

hmm... memory's got holes in it, but points to Clinton not exactly telling her this is a pseudo-date. this'll be fun!

--- End quote ---

That's what I thought. Wonder if she's Oblivious Mom or Way Too Perceptive Mom?

Just imagine a nice popcorn.gif here...
