[The voice that comes over the feed is sounding even more surly than usual, today...]

I am looking for a remedy for skuntank spray. Anything potentially helpful would be appreciated. Simple washing does not seem to be working.

[See, children? The ill effects of not forwarding that chain letter. Tsk tsk.

...Are those bees buzzing in the background?]

There is a great difference between being sprayed by a skunk and... getting mauled.

...Thank you, though.

[soundmind]

[There is NO such thing as false equivalences in Death City, don't be silly.]

Not really...both are pretty annoying bad luck results. Not that I've been sprayed by a skunk before, but I'd feel the same way about it.

[MAKA...]

There's an option for a search engine on here, sir. I think you should probably familiarize yourself with that next time you have a question, people on the network aren't nice all the time.

[envy_the_sinners]

Your priorities are miserably out of order, if you equate being sprayed by a skunk to being mauled.

[HE'S GOING TO BE BLUNT, HERE...]

A search... engine?

[You're going to have to explain what that is to Mr. 1920s, Maka.]

[soundmind]

I was raised in a different culture, sir, my priorities are normal for my world. Kirikou would tell you the same.

[Telling a girl who has scars all over her that being heavily injured isn't a minor inconvenience is like talking to a wall. A wall with pigtails.]

You'll see a magnifying glass on the screen, if you click on it you can type in a question or word to search for, pushing the enter button--what you use to make paragraph breaks--will bring back results that you can read for information.

[envy_the_sinners]

[Oh no. The wall is cute.]

I see...

[Thanks, Maka, he hadn't exactly picked up on that little bit, yet. He's fiddling around with it now.]

Then this might give me the answers, without my having to blindly reach out over the net?

[soundmind]

[Nah, just stubborn.]

Yeah, not unless you actually want to talk to people. But a lot of them are weird, so...why would you?

[Maka you're pretty weird yourself.]

[envy_the_sinners]

...I don't mind weirdness.

[What a... well... weird thing to say.]

[soundmind]

So, should I have not jumped in to tell my friend to stop harassing you about the scam known as magic letters that curse you if you don't pass them on? Because that's pretty weird.

[envy_the_sinners]

There is a great difference between 'weird' and 'rude.' Your friend falls under the latter.

[soundmind]

Can't he be both?

[Maka please that's such a kiddy thing to say.

Oh wait she's literally a kid.]

[envy_the_sinners]

Of course he could. He simply never struck me as particularly odd.
