They're all imbecile. Skyfall just tries to pretend it isn't. Tom Send a noteboard - 13/01/2015 04:29:56 PM

I mean after all, they're marketed to an audience with brains the size of chickens to begin with.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Might as well ask why the sky is blue. nossy - 30/12/2014 09:05:37 PM 782 Views
It took science a while to explain why the sky is blue. Tom - 13/01/2015 05:31:51 PM 606 Views

Problem is, as I hear it, Austin Powers kind of ruined "spy comedy" for anyone else beetnemesis - 09/01/2015 09:22:53 PM 713 Views
