She's an android? I thought you needed to have the synthetic covering to be an android. Or in the QC universe is it having a sentient mind?

Her chassis is humanoid enough to qualify as android, it seems. By that logic, Momo would currently be an android as well.

I have it on good authority that some people like pedants. In spite of their pedantry, though.

Now I wonder what the education system is like with regards to AIs.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

Presumably they're programmed with what they need to know for their Turing-whatever the hell the other name was mental age, and since they're sentient they have the capacity to learn past what they need at the minimum.

I actually feel like this may be a good learning moment for May, and it seems like she and Momo are going to start serious robot civil rights activism based on both of their stances.wild mass guess

In any case, I'm also glad that it seems like she might be at a turning point too-Jerk with a Heart of Gold fort of thing.

That's not pedantry. Pedantry would be calling her a gynoid.

May's intellectual bar is set pretty low from what I can tell.

When the hell did Sven start thinking of himself as a good guy?

Probably since his realization of how he feels about Faye, because that's also cliche.

I'm pretty impressed that you found that one, REM. Sven's a bit of a hypocrite, now wouldn't you say?

Sven's been acting really out of character in this appearance. Like he's been a jerk in the past, but now he's gone into some sort of cheesy delusional state where he's behaving like the protagonists of his songs.

He knows his songs are awful schlock, so it doesn't make sense to me that he's behaving like this. Maybe it's finally gotten to him.

[up] I read that as "I am fond of (people who are pedantic because of their pedantry)" at first and had to reread.

I am also fond of misleading people through the use of syntactic ambiguity, but in that case it was unintentional. :P

So, Sven is/was a spoiled brat.
