So if you're talking about the newly unplugged, do you say "floppy baby" or "noodle"?

Personally I like floppy baby. It's way more universal.




And to all you newborn floppy noodle babies out there: hi and welcome.

ALL THE TIME?

[but what if you're just a slightly panicky slightly old mechanic]

[axeyou]

[practice, practice, practice]

All the time.

Don't think you're up for it?

DO YOU DUAL-TASK ANGER AND OTHER EMOTIONS

E.G., WHEN YOU ENCOUNTER BEER-BAKED CORN ON THE COB OR DAT ASS

[axeyou]

Nope, still mostly angry.

Especially with asses. That gets some great results.

[servomotor]

OK

WELL I HAVE TESTOSTERONE ON MY SIDE (PRESUMABLY) (I'M LEERY OF YOUR BLOOD CHEMISTRY STATS RIGHT NOW BUT HELL)




IS THERE EVEN A LESSON #2?

[axeyou]

Yeah. Get a good weapon.

ARE YOU A LIGHTNING RIFLE KIND OF GIRL

[axeyou]

I'm an axe kind of girl.

But tell me about your lightning rifle anyways.

[servomotor]

I DON'T OWN LIGHTNING RIFLES. AS FAR AS I'M AWARE, LIGHTNING RIFLES ARE THE PROPERTY (INTELLECTUAL AND PHYSICAL) OF THE ZION DEFENSE GRID. I BELIEVE PRIVATELY DESIGNED ENERGY WEAPONS ARE FROWNED UPON AND WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT CRAP IN POLITE SOCIETY.

I AM A FAN OF THE LIGHTNING RIFLE IN PRINCIPLE. WITH ENOUGH OUTPUT TO DESTROY A SENTINEL AND KEEP YOU OUT OF IMMEDIATE TENTACLE RANGE. CHARGE TIME AND MOBILITY COULD SURE USE SOME WORK, BUT IT'S A GOOD START. ALSO THE VISCERAL CRUNCH OF MURDER IS MISSING, IF THAT'S A STANDARD WE'RE TRYING TO MEET.

[axeyou]

That is always a standard we're trying to meet.

But yeah, you sure don't sound like you have any experience with them, or with talking about them. Or anything. Just the principle.

So how big are they? In principle.
