 When you talk to Matriarch Aethyta on the Citadel she goes on to tell you that she's Liara's "father" so she mentions Benezia, says she's Liara's mother.

Then Shepard breaks in and says "Liara isn't her mother!"

Did I miss something here? Is this just bad scripting?

What? She says she's Liara's FATHER. Then Shepard can say that Aethyta would be called a mother in human terms.

OP, I seriously hope you're just trolling. If not, I weep for humanity.

Yeah I know that, but Shepard says "Liara isn't her mother" referencing to Benezia in autodialogue, and then if you get Liara to talk to Aethyta she says "I'm not my mother".

I'm so confused right now.

No seriously, I think I'm mishearing things, but I clearly heard it, and I played that part not long ago too. I don't get this?

Shepard is saying Liara isn't like Benezia and there is no need to spy on her.

You really never saw that figure of speech before, Linkenski? It's not all that uncommon.

I recommend never using this turn of phrase with one's girlfriend or wife, unless you have a comfy couch.

Do you think anything in ME3 doesn't have shitty writing?

I'm gonna go with dumb for now. I'll read the OP and review my conclusion at a later date.

So using phrases you don't know is s***ty writting now?

C'mon, this is too much.

*shakes head* Linkenski, everyone has brain farts every so often(especially me). Just own up to the fact that you had a brain fart, and move on. Don't try to move the blame to something else. It just makes you look like more of an idiot.

To answer the question in the title:

No, OP, you're not dumb. But that won't stop some people from trying to tell you that you are.

Okay, okay, I was being a moron when I said it was sh*tty. For one english is not my native language but I fare ok well in it (or so I thought xD)

I laughed when I realised how simple it was and I wrote "sh*tty writing" in pure frustration :-P It's a very common figure of speech but somehow it just flew completely over my head at this one particular moment and I took it literally as in "Liara is not her (own) mother!". This is embarrasing xD
