But nah.

Bob's not a perv.  HARRY's Bob is a perv.

Evil Bob?  Not a perv.  Scary as fuck, but not a perv.

Butters' Bob?  Ummm.  I don't think we know enough to be sure... but I don't think we see any signs of perviness... which just is NOT pervy Bob, especially with Andi around!
No signs? Among the first things we see of Bob under Butters' ownership is him giddily gushing about just how much porn is on the internet. He is absolutely still pervy.

Jim himself has said that Bob is basically the same, because Butters first met Bob when he was under Harry, so Butters' expectations about Bob are based on that.

He's also living with Andi, a werewolf who winds up defrocked with significant frequency. So, bonus for Bob, I guess.

When Harry broke into Butters' place and Andi attacked him, Bob was too busy staring at naked Andi (after she un-wolfed) to respond to anything Harry or Andi said until Harry blocked his line of sight.

Harry losing Bob is one of the things that have made the story much less funny for me. I loved "pre-Changes" books with real passion. Post-Changes ones are fine, and I kinda love Skin Game, but never as much as "pre-Changes". Of course, the main reason for that is Maggie, but definitely Harry without Bob does not help.

I guess it is a sign of Harry's maturity when he stops doing the magical equivalent of fart joke.

You've just highlighted the power of names. All Bob's are Harry's Bob. Evil Bob isn't actually a Bob at all, it's just a spirit of intellect. Butters' Bob, however, is a Bob, which means he will share some of Harry's Bob's original personality. Butters' Bob might not be as pervy and/or might have more restraint, but he's still going to be a perv.

Plus, as I think was explained in one of the books, Butters already knew Bob when he was Harry's, so his personality didn't change much since Butters already had pre-formed impressions and expectations of him.

That is a great advantage for e-books.

Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

My prediction was Peace Talks would have between 54 and 56 chapters, so it's 4 chapters past my highest guestimate now.  I predicted Jim would finish between April 18 and May 12, so I'm still in the ballpark there.  At the time I made my prediction Jim was averaging one chapter every 8 days, but now he's averaging one chapter every 4 to 5 days, that's why Jim's finish date may still fall within my estimated time frame.

I'm wondering if Jim has only 1 to 3 chapters to finish or if it could be more like 8 to 10 chapters, or something in between.  I hope it's a lower number.  Jim is attending a Con around the July 4 weekend in Layton, UT.  (I should go to that one.)  Maybe he could read 3 or 4 chapters, like he has done in the past.  (That's probably not going to happen, but it's a fun idea.

I'm torn... 60 chapters means more reading (or listening in my case), but... I want him to finish! 

So conflicted!
