Topic on Talk:Mechanical Abomination

Was marking the example of AM as needing context and thought of something: his quote about hate would be a much punchier page quote than the current one in my opinion. EDIT: posting the actual quote below:

HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

Not sure what you mean, you have a link to this other quote?

Not knowing the quote, I couldn't say.

We can always start a "Quotes" subpage if there's more than one appropriate quote for a trope.

Umbire, I'm pretty sure the page defines something as an abomination for what it is, not his personality. Something can be pretty nice(and in some games, romanceable), but still be an abomination. That quote you speak of describes perfectly how unhinged that individual is but do not explain why he is an abomination. Being a very complex mechanical being is not enough.

Also, I like the Nikola Tesla quote.

Fair enough, then.

Edited the quote into the original comment - I'm also open to other suggestions that would be better than mine or the current page quote in case anyone's inclined to offer one up.

Agreed with Horny that the suggested quote looks to be describing a being's personality rather than why it's an example of the trope. Therefore, I'm against switching to it.

The quote is talking about AM's hatred of humanity rather than how he is an abomination. I would say a description of a mechanical abomination would be more suited for the page compared to AM's emotional statement.
