:smilenod: Is how that is meant to be read... Hmm... I wonder if I can ask Bing to make me a posh English game review..?

...Oh, the shiny metal ass of my new microelectronic God, it can!

And what the hell are huwheels? The closest that I have got is hook up wheels, but if you think electric cars are hot, you have rocks for brains. Seriously, Elon Musk has to be the uncoolest person in the world.

The TL;DR of it is that in my world view, words are sequences of symbols and sounds that carry situational and contextual meaning. (Their "time and place") The shared meaning of them is in the informal agreement where we "all" agree to, say, paint a mind picture of a cat when we hear or read the word "cat."

I do not think that there is any such sequence of symbols and sounds that is by itself so beyond the pale as to never be used - even (especially, in fact) when that is the word that best works in the sentence I try to construct. The rusty nails, should there be any, in the verbal club then come from the manner in which you wield it.

I don't want to speak for Mags - that's a slippery-ass slope, but she does not share the above opinion, and so when said sequences of symbols were used and there was no sufficient aftermath for her satisfaction, she decided to leave, as did Bruno.

"A mind of metal and wheels" is a Lord of the Rings quote. Here, I simply use it as a colourful way of saying "AI."

I believe that Mags just committed suicide in a shared massacre.

I have you on ignore for obvious reasons, but the ignormatron doesn't cover all cases, it would seem. You are completely incorrect in your assessment of why Mags left.

To do so, we would have to back-talk someone who is neither a public figure, nor here to be involved in any discussion regarding her.

Personally, I will not do that, so the best I can give you is that it was neither a "suicide" nor a "massacre." A somewhat better metaphor would be leaving the house, locking the door behind you and throwing away the key.

No. And you're just trolling now. Move on.
