Thanks, paul. I do try not to be an idiot.

What you've just seen, I believe, is two 'borgs whose vocabularies are too
limited to express their thoughts. It might be accurate to call me a
troublemaker, or a pedant, or a vituperative SOB. However, such terms as
those entail value judgments. Krooger in particular tries to view the
world without engaging his vestigial human feelings. When he says "idiot"
or "stupid" or "liar", he believes he can summon "facts" to support his
accusations. But he is simply incapable of discerning anybody's social
value because the entire concept is alien to him.

I'm rambling a bit, but do you recall Krooger's ranting about belonging to
church groups as evidence of his social skills? Tasks at churches always
outnumber those willing to do them. But Krooger fancies himself as morally
upstanding because he volunteers to do tedious chores at his church. You
have to be really nasty to get chucked out of church.
