Awesome! That sounds great.
Thanks! I'll check it out.
Sounds good. I'll look into it.
Hey Ginnie.
Hi Psybot! What's the matter? You seem down.
Oh, really? No, it's nothing.
Aw, you can tell *me* Psybot. You can tell me *anything.*
No, seriously. I'm fine. This is default me.
Well, I know you pretty well. I think I can sense you.
Like a presence in the room? Did you get a cold chill?
See? You're down on yourself. You just said you're a ghost.
Hmmmm. Maybe.
I think you want to talk about it.
I think you're forcing me to talk about it.
Ah, so there is an "it."
...
You don't have to tell me, you know.
I know. But I guess if I was going to tell anybody...
.... Yes? And?
I just can't seem to properly express myself with some people.
For example?
It seems like the more I think about what I want to say, the further the words get from what I mean.
It sounds like you're over thinking it. The communicating part I mean.
Like I should just say what comes into my mind? No, that's messed up too. Because in the end I'm so nervous that's what I end up doing anyway. And comes out broken.
No, I mean you're putting too much into the words themselves. I don't think it really matters what the words are, it's the *intent* that comes through. That's the real communication.
That doesn't make any sense. How can people tell your "intent?" All they have to go on is the words.
I think there's a much bigger context than that. You're super reducing everything to just the smallest, most atomic increment.
Yeah that everything is built on.
Not everything. :)
What is the school policy on pets in dorm rooms, @
psybot2000? Like the one that @
Pandora Silverberg has. Is that OK? What about other students that might have allergies?
Good question, @
Hammy CH. I will need a little more soap to get you there. Allergies have a good one though I'm sure you can feel the need to make it more important.
==========•=•=====
See Ginnie? I try the Free Association Module and I don't think it does anybody any good.
Well, you mentioned soap.
Yes, I did mention soap. For no reason.
What do you see when you think about soap.
Think about soap? Like... bars... bubbles. Big bubbles floating in the air out of a bathtub.
You're taking a bath?
No... not me. It's Peppito. The labradoodle we had when I was little. We used to give him baths. But he hated it. He would freak out and it made a mess and once I...
Yes?
I was trying to hold him and he jerked and I slammed my head into the bathtub and knocked out a tooth. It was just a baby tooth, but there was a lot of blood.
What about Peppito?
He ran away a lot. Then he didn't come back. I was little.
And the rest of your message? About Hammy CH feeling "the need to make it more important?" Is there some hostility there?
We never got another dog. I think Hammy's just jealous of @
Pandora Silverberg's dragon. Who's allergic to dragons anyway?
