Might be that it seems more respectful to the patients, but that's just my guess.

Syrio was an amazing character! It was a shame he went out so soon, but he went out in style. I have a few questions:

  • Do people who have been killed in the show still visit the set?

  • Did you have anything about swordplay to teach Arya's actress after the cameras stopped rolling?

  • Who was your favorite actor/actress to interact with offset?

Just because people don't do something doesn't mean we shouldn't expect them to.

Yes it does. That's the definition of an expectation. Why would you expect something that never happens to happen?

You can want them to, or prefer them to.

I respect your position, but nobody is going to say "Nice Knowing You" to their loved ones; nor should they. Familial ties are important to humans as a species.

I think the rest of his comment reveals "nice knowing you" to be tongue in cheek.

But why "shouldn't" any say that to their loved ones? There are plenty of instances where cutting yourself off from toxic people is certainly reasonable, even if they're family. For instance, if you're gay and your parents are rabidly homophobic. Similarly I don't see why not associating yourself with someone who thinks government whistleblowers should be hanged (something I've heard said in real life) is unreasonable.

More and more, people are coming to the realization that your real family is the one you choose, not the one you're born into. Sometimes those two circles intersect on the Venn diagram of life- sometimes they don't.

So what if you're on some arbitrary list?

LOL really? Who decides what is "shady"? Sadly, not you or I. See you at the nearest CIA black site, bro.
