One of our across-the-hall neighbors used to wear her clogs and walk up and down the wooden floors.
People Who Wear Clogs: Please take them off at home if you're not walking on carpet.
Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In one of my college apartments, my upstairs neighbor was this wee slip of a girl who WALKED LIKE AN ELEPHANT. I could not figure out how that little mass could make so much noise. And it wasn't the building construction, I could barely hear the other roommates, and one was a giant.
She must have been a fembot. That's how the Six Million Dollar Man knew that Oscar had been replaced by a fembot--the fembot was much heavier, so the helicopter that fembot!Oscar was in had a hard time taking off.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Oscar Goldman was replaced by a robot. Oscar Goldman's secretary was replaced by a fembot. The Bionic Woman could detect fembots with her bionic ear.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
What do fembots sounds like?

So is it just that fembots are girl robots? Or is there a certain... je ne sais quoi that fembots have?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
What do fembots sounds like?
Like a robot but with added pink noise.

Nah, no pix. They're your standard above-the-knee narrow skirts in grey, black on black stripes...well, I think it is black. Or really, really really dark navy. So much so I can't tell.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We are totally the loud upstairs neighbors with obnoxious kids. Fortunately the woman who lives below us is cool with it - the only time it was ever a problem was right after Dylan was born, because we didn't realize how loud the sound of our glider was (and he would be up for HOURS at all hours of the nights). It was one of those weird situations where the sound carried only through the floor but not through the walls. So we got a thick mat for it and eventually he started sleeping through the night, and now she brings him Christmas presents.
