What the heck…? That stupid link. Anyway, it's not a bother at all; I appreciate your letting me know. I really think I've fixed it now, but I'm less confident this time around. The change will take a few minutes to clear the cache. My apologies.

Fixed that. Thank you for the heads-up!
I definitely hold myself to a higher standard, and I'm glad you do, too. I think I've done a good job of meeting that standard. Am I a human being who fucks up on occasion? Yes. I think that in the long run, you all would rather have it that way, at least until pop-culture-critiquing robot technology advances to the…
Hey, Lurky. You've made it pretty clear you don't agree with the opening piece, and while I think you're reading it in a more outlandishly evil voice than it was intended—hint: I don't ACTUALLY want Mr. Instagram's kids to hurt themselves—I don't mind that it made you upset. You took my words to heart and responded to…
My tits are plenty calm. I'd show you, but then they wouldn't be calm anymore. The old tits catch-22
Absolutely; thank you for saying this, Gary. Like I mentioned a couple times in the opening bit, I'm entirely cool with you not being into the Super Bowl, or hating it or whatever. It's the people who broadcast their apathy to let everyone know how badass they are—they're the ones that drive me nuts.
You are correct, sir.
Ha, I do the same thing, Rollo. "I don't care, but I'm not judging! I think it's awesome that you're into it!" It's the truth, but I'm sure I pour it on a little thick.
You don't know how hard it was to resist that when I was writing the headline.
Fair enough, and you have an astute eye, Mr. DRC. (Edit: Or Ms. DRC.)
Ha, interesting point. I haven't read those early Bond books, no. The miniseries does often implicitly portray Fleming in relation to the cinematic Bond (with coy references to the movies and a few 007-ish action sequences), but maybe Fleming's Fleming is more resonant to the literary Bond than I gave it credit for.
The screener was provided to me by BBC America, with a "BBC America" watermark over every frame of the footage, in advance of its premiere on BBC America. Like Bobloblaw, I don't know if the sex scenes were racier in the original version, but given that BBC America's cut is the only version I've seen, it seemed fair…
Hey all—a housekeeping note: A CMS glitch made the wrong byline appear on this article earlier. It was in fact written by Bob Mackey.
LeVar Burton can explain anything he damn well pleases!
You know, we watched that episode when I was in fourth grade or thereabouts, and all I remember about it is that I was exasperated by the utterly inadequate explanation of the transporter effect. Which sounds incredibly nerdy, and it is, but seriously, look at this crap:
Ha, yes! I had the same thought: "So basically, this guy is the reason that Nemesis sucked."
What? I love that you're that guy! And mortified that I brain-farted that one. Thank you for the heads-up.
Cool, have fun.
You might not enjoy it this time, but if you ever want to try it again, I have a fine-tuned Binding Of Isaac Joy2Key profile that solved a lot of the initial troubles I had with the controls. (You can probably find profiles out there on the web, too, I don't know—never looked.) Feel free to hit me up on Twitter or…
I think at The A.V. Club, you can safely assume that watching old tapes of a Christopher Reeve dinosaur special on your K-Mart VCR will be construed as "awesome and hilarious" rather than "pathetic."
