QC Captions Volume #426 (2020 February 03-07)
« on: 04 Feb 2020, 06:25 »

You have now entered the awkward zone.


Even the furniture has opinions these days.


EDIT: Fixed the subject line. How the heck did I manage to mess up the numbering? I work with numbers every day.

A good pun is it's own reword.
There is a difference between spare parts, extra parts and left over parts.

The Venn diagram  for Common Sense and Good Sense has very little, if any, overlap.

May: "I didn't want a more humaniform body anyway."
Momo: "But those are that much more advanced, durable and have more features."
Winslow: "It's not like we aren't immediately distinguishable from humans."
? (hums): "... it's lamplighting time in the uncanny valley."

Lamp: ♪ You light up my life ♪

Momo: “So your girlfriend is... a sentient lamp?”

Winslow: “Yes! We me at karaoke night! Her name is Lucy and she really enjoys being a household appliance!”

May: “Well how fucking nice for her. Maybe I can become a gas grill so that I can explode and burn everything to the ground.”

Momo: Actually you raise a good point; where does liability lie in the case of an accident caused by a sapient appliance?
Winslow: I have no idea but it sounds like a real pain to figure out.
Lucy: You would not believe how many disclaimers and waivers I had to click through to get this gig!
May: Fuck, you idiots are depressing, I was being sarcastic!

Lamp: "If things get too bad you can always just ditch that body and take up life as an appliance! It's not so bad, and you wouldn't have to pay for repairs all the time. Admiittedly, I don't get out a lot now."
Momo: "Or maybe an AnthroPC chassis? At least you wouldn't be falling apart all the time."
Winslow: "I'd let you have my old chassis if we hadn't already donated it. Unless that would weird you out too much."
May: "I know I can't afford to be a fighter jet like I want. But is it too much to ask just to be a blue robot chick? Preferably with bigger tits?"

ALEXALAMP: "Good morning [[$ENTER_NAME_HERE]]! Would you like to know your schedule for  today?

MOMO: "It's an interesting way to camouflage a potentially-valuable bit of personal technology but why a lamp?"

WINSLOW: "Yes, are you implying that a voice-activated internet terminal is a source of illumination?"

MAY: "Nah, just saying that th' little blabbermouth ought to be good for something!"

Lamp: Are you reading? It would give me pleasure to provide light for you.
Momo: You should consider your eyesight, you know.
Winslow: Accepting this offer would make your lamp companion happy, too.
May: Trust me. Considering this "reading" material, better light would benefit neither of us.

EDIT: Fixed the subject line. How the heck did I manage to mess up the numbering? I work with numbers every day.
