Reminds me of a song lyric.
James McMurtry: Don't chase that carrot 'til it makes you sick. What do you think you're gonna prove. Just let it dangle 'til it falls off that stick. That's when you make your move.
Always liked that one.

Now that's a concrete argument. I think your conclusion is cast in stone. Although, who knows what may surface. But it could pave the way (along the road) for an argument some may identify as being lane. Statistically I'd say we're in the median, or at least at a crossroad.

As with humans, it's always the jack-asses' fault.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Some people tend to be smart when in fact they're not. She just started her job 2 days ago and now she keeps on complaining. Her behavior pisses me off.

Hah! Got ya! Relevance !
The length of your reply is 24 words - which is which is 3x7 (+ 3), the (+3 referring to the multiplication factor).
And, to top it off, the strlen() of the first three words is seven !
You are a sneaky rascal!

Nothing is relevant. Resistance is futile and you both are begging to be assimilated.

No, resistors are futile: you will be integrated.

Really great to hear that such a talented writer is being recognised.
Remains of the day is definitely worth reading and if you want a dystopian novel on human relationships then Never let me go is a great read too if a bit dark.

Interesting. I've been making my way slowly through Ishiguro's The Buried Giant - amazon[^] over a few weeks.
It is so interesting because it is written like a Tolkien fantasy yet there is another story underneath which I haven't figured out yet.
It is some of the best fiction writing I've read in a long time, interesting compelling story where every sentence is necessary and plainly written.
Really great, you should give it a read some time.
