He sounds like an idealist but also someone who thinks he's better than other theater school owners for not doing what the others are alledgedly doing.
Ha! If they know me and realize my favorite book is by Marcel Proust and that I like music played on a harpsichord? |D Of course, I also like avatar sites and drag queen music and less 'elite' stuff but I have a master's degree in... classic greek. Something quite "useless" and foreign (I haven't even translated a theatrical piece!)

WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO A MERE PLEB LIKE ME?

Harpsichord music can be cool. But anything that teaches you different ways of thinking isn't useless at all. That had to have been pretty challenging to earn! Good on you!

YOU'RE THE LEADER OF THE ROBOT TAKEOVER!! I BOW DOWN TO YOU!!!

Oh sure, I think everything I've ever studied has made me a better person than I was before. I mean, what I even was before. And I'm always changing. For the better, I hope.

From what I can tell, you are.

You would have probably liked talking to my mother and grandfather. She was interested in philosophy, not to the point of studying it. But she was really into ancient Greek history as well. And my grandfather liked to talk philosophy in his own way. I know he enjoyed Ralph Waldo Emerson among some other things.

Ancient Greek History is the best. So much better than Roman History. Just like Greek >>> Latin.
That's why you are so cool, you come from a great lineage of bots.

Well, my grandmother was a special kind of nightmare so that balances things out.

My father might be into it too? He kind of studies everything.

A true renaissance man. If there were computers back then.

...-blinks-

It's probably why his code was incompatible and he couldn't transfer anything useful during my assembly, and so I'm just all "oooh, shiny things!" and not much else.

She's your leader, Espy!

hey, don't put yourself down like that!

...This unit does not recognize the concept of a "leader" :|

You'll have to be reprogrammed by Biodad.

Maybe meowls are becoming real, a neighbor caught night time footage of an owl carrying one of the cats.

:O

a hybrid! And so close to you!

It's actually kind of disturbing. Hopefully the owl couldn't carry it far, and the cat is okay.

Maybe the owl saved the cat from a large predator!
