    I’m guessing Nick never so much as mentioned his Adventures in Whimsey VR Land…

      Could be.

      We might be about to find out. Here’s hoping Aimee is still alright.

      It is possible that he can’t mention them.

    Man, I just remembered Old Man Whimsy or whatever his name was warned about Skin Horse. Guess it should’ve been the other way around.

    So it could have been used by oligarchs to influence certain populations? I knew cutting back on coffee was a bad idea.

      Pride and Prejudice: Derbyshire Drift

      No, no – the third movie is “Pride and Prejudice: Pemberley Drift”.

      After that you have “Proud and Prejudiced”, and then “Proud Five”, and then “Proud and Prejudiced 6”, and then “Prejudiced 7”, and finally “The Providence of the Prejudiced”.

      Well, it’s “Prid3 and Pr3judic3” for a start…. that’s why cinemas wouldn’t touch it. Too afraid of another “Sinchey-Dochey New York” situation.

    Isn’t “sociopath” the normal mental state of corporations?

      According to the DSM, yes–by the legal definition of what corporations are SUPPOSED to do, a corporation is a psychopath.

        Isn’t a sociopath a kind of psychopath?

          I think it is the reverse, actually. The answers on the internet aren’t consistent, but one consistent aspect is that the psychopath has physical differences in their brain. So arguably, all psychopaths are anti-social mentally, even if they never get caught acting it out. In theory, a sociopath can be cured.

      No they work within an ethical framework; it’s just not the same as people’s.

    Am I the only one who *really* wants to watch ‘2 Proud, 2 Prejudiced’ now?

      No, I’m sure there are other equally disturbed individuals out there somewhere…

        We’ll wait here with a fresh straightjacket for you.

    Does this mean that soon the Skin Horse gang will have to speak with Helen Narbonic to see about finding a cure for the cure?

      The name’s Narbon, but that would be awesome.

    Whimsy is a nonhuman company, yes. But more importantly, Whimsy herself is a corporation. Profits are the first concern.

      Obligation to the shareholders is the first concern. It just so happens that that usually means profits, but not always.

    The Cypress is sounding a bit too much like a Bondality victim: the female character who reveals critical information and is murdered soon after by the villains A-Sig and Whimsy.

      Well, considering they were TRYING to murder her BEFORE she revealed the information…

      By being covered top to bottom in gold paint?

        Wouldn’t take much paint at this point. There’s not much left of her. But she would look stunning all sprawled out shining in the morning sun.

        That doesn’t actually kill people.
        Unless they wear it for weeks without ever washing it off, and even that is conjecture.
