Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Archer is on Netflix, and I'm wondering about it. I have a surprisingly low tolerance for crudeness, but a high respect for Teppy's opinion. Is my untutored impression of Archer as being fairly strongly R accurate?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

CBS is one of the reasons we have a computer plugged into the TV instead of a dedicated media device like a Roku.

(But mostly as a failsafe because we also have a Tivo OTA.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

hivemind tumblr people. so I am new with the tumblr and I follow some people who I want to see their posts, but then they respond/reblog EVERY SINGLE respond/reblog their original post received. My whole dashboard becomes this long list of the same post. Is there anyway to fix that?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Is my untutored impression of Archer as being fairly strongly R accurate?

Pretty much. A lot of the R rating comes from sexual content. A LOT of sexual content. I think it depends on how you define "crude." It's less bathroom humor (though there is some) and more sexual content and swearing.

I really wanted to like Archer because I had heard good things and I like Aisha's podcast a lot, but it is not my wheelhouse.

Pretty much

Well, a couple of episodes won't hurt me. I can intersperse them with Avengers Assemble.

I love drinking with my brother and watching Archer and that car show that just got cancelled. Oh, Top Gear. It's a xmas tradition now. Only time I see those shows. I have no cable, have never had cable and don't stream much unless I've missed an air broadcast (Agent Carter most recently. And...COSMOS. I think that's it, actually.)

I really need to upgrade my internet. I should do that.

Do you have Xkit? [link] It's a tumblr extension full of other extensions, that do many wonderful things. It has one that looks like it has tumblr show only original posts, not reblogs. I think it does it for everyone you follow, not just one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Excellent interview:

Noelle Stevenson talks ‘Lumberjanes,’ ‘Nimona’ and her online roots

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, a couple of episodes won't hurt me. I can intersperse them with Avengers Assemble.

If you want to try one from the first season, do the Zeppelin episode "Skytanic." That gives a better idea of the humor going forward.
