Do you know enough Middle English that it gave you that impression?
I'm genuinely asking; I'm always amazed whenever a character is meant to be fluent in French that no one on the staff of any show ever seems to be able to contact a French person for basic re-reading.
Although I suppose they would have had to try…

That's a nice paradox, seeing guns on the street is then proof that the police isn't doing its job, you therefore need guns to be safe. It never ends…

Congratulations! I hope for you it will replace Inspecteur Derrick (sorry, I only know the French title) as the go-to reference for German TV (only good).

I can see the votes on the Dissolve on the iPad. More worryinlgy, commenting is a bitch, the whole comment section often just disappears as I hit post or try to upvote, but maybe that's because mine's an iPad 1.

@avclub-d72f705337e5adcf7e33ec0381c5f5b2:disqus that's the part where I have a doubt, I'm hoping collapsing a thread will take you to the next one regardless of how many comments you're collapsing (I would also probably be more or less ok with having to load more comments if it took me to the next thread directly); if…

Yes, last time I was made redundant, my boss told me it might happen as I was going on holiday, it was a nice touch.

I would hate to be proved wrong, but as it will still be possible to collapse threads, I assume it might make it a bit easier as you won't find yourself going on the next page to find yourself in the middle of the thread you collapsed, when it's not what used to be the previous page in the first 15 minutes. You'll…

That is indeed the one good thing, and the reply will be always be right under the comment you are replying to.

The jury actually had a minority of Europeans, and the article makes it clear that one of them at least was in favour of American movies.
Zodiac was also straight away recognised as a masterpiece by French critics, ending in that year's top 10 of Les Cahiers du Cinema for instance.
That the movie was in the main…

I'm a hoarder and still listen to them anyway, and Smacky would also be able to tell you a horror story justifying keeping them.

I want to read about Elton John's new album, I haven't heard anything from it, the reviews I've read say it's the best since… (as reviews always do with classic artists) but I'm not sure what that means, I really liked The Union and Songs from the West Coast if we go back a little; does anyone have an opinion?

Fuck Biblio

@avclub-2a6ac9e5324952e36b40237cf2fcdad8:disqus you're better off going to business school for that, there are regular open bar parties, student life in universities is close to non-existent.

When Barney sais nothing happened between the two of them with Ted's mother, I half-expected him to say it was a threesome.

She did start blabbing about the Skype sex, I assume she would normally keep that quiet. We'll see if she launches into more confessions before Marshall's arrival.

@avclub-d301bce59916e4713089b7b3c335635a:disqus  the business schools are actually private., hence the fees (as opposed to the engineering schools which are still public and therefore free) I'm not sure what the status of the IEPs (sciences-po) is these days though.
La Sorbonne (Paris-IV) is prestigious enough if…

If you get the opportunity you should, I find that when it comes to live music, it's what I prefer as people are there only for the music (which in turn can lead to the snobbery of not clapping when you're not supposed to etc. but given that I have been known to shush people I'm not judging).
I don't know where you…

Yep, the first example that comes to mind is when Rattle was last here with the Berlin Phil, someone shouted :"Bravi" a fraction of a second after the end of Mahler 3.

I probably just need a break, I've been reading some Pynchon pretty much non-stop for a year now.
