Public Apology

I, Amber, fully admit to the fact that before this weekend, I have never seen an episode of Red Dwarf. I did not understand the full ramifications of this lack. As [livejournal.com profile] kendric put it, it is so horrible, its effects so far-reaching and vast, that the entire scientific community could spend a hundred years researching and barely scratch the surface of the number of things it has impacted around the known universe.

I also understand that I was in worse peril: that my geek license could be revoked. I humbly confess of this crime, but I also joyfully attest that I am already taking steps to rectify this situation. I have about 7.5 seasons to go, but one day I will be whole and not a smeghead.

I can only plead a brokeass childhood without a functional television* for this. I throw myself at the mercy of the VCR and thank [livejournal.com profile] kendric for his mercy and help.

*We had a Super Nintendo with one game (Mario World) and about a dozen video tapes (Back To The Future series, Star Wars Series, My Fair Lady, Star Trek: Shore Leave and Trouble with Tribbles, The Little Mermaid, something else I remember not liking and a taped church service where I was 3 years old and called my sister crazy. Serious. I saw Next Gen with my mom, X-Files and X-men at friends houses, and a few episodes of Miami Vice with my grandfather. That was most of the TV I saw before age 16 or so.

I figured without context I could get away with it and also it is apparent it is going to occur given the name of that one. I could not help myself but no more.

Quarantine is a season 5 episode, so you're probably pretty safe with that one for a while. She's got many episodes left before it comes up.

Also, HOLYCRAPILOVETHATEPISODE.

Quarantine is sheer awesome. I'd quote more of it, but it's probably a bad idea.
