Yup, the pose in that photo is very "Put down that sacrificial virgin Sir and step away!" Hilarious.

7-foot is about the height of your average schoolgirl in the Netherlands.
I always wondered why the Dutch are so damn tall and I figure is all about the risk of dykes breaking and the possibility of keeping your head above the water.

Well as Mamet and almost any other dramatic writer will tell you, every character in a scene has to want or need something. If not, it’s just a bunch of people sitting around talking about the weather. Narcissists are by nature needy people so they make ideal dramatic subjects. I do agree with you about them all being…

Just for its pure simplicity, you have to take your hat off to the amount of mileage they got of the character Captain Kevin Darling's name in Blackadder Goes Fourth. Even in last episode, the audience was still snickering everytime the pompuos General Melchett shouted "Get over here, Darling!"

On the other hand, if there's a shower scene with Mende…..
