When "Rad Likes Robots" came out a lot of people were upset about it, their reasons and opinions are valid, but to me it was very important, because it highlighted a subject i was noticing and now have more substance to it. The fact Rad is into machines. The episode being about romance or heteronormativeness(if you can apply gender to an artificial being) didnt ruin it for me, because it was also so much about the fact Rad was in love with a machine. The name sugests it's a trend and that she being a robot must have weighted on his interest in her. He even talks about it as a whole different brand of love, the electric kind of love, i cant imagine what else he could have meant. It was a great episode to feed my interpretation that he's into machines i have developed based on his dialogue in the game, that makes it look like he's in love with his van.
