Public Apology

[spazzychic]

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 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 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 remember when "David Lister" and "Kryton" came to visit Seattle. It was an event!

Yeah, for two or three years in a row, they'd show up around the same time as Folk Life, spend their time at the festival, and do a spot on Channel 9..
And conventions.
Ah, the good old days!

One year they had "Rimmer" with them, another year they had "Cat", I met them the year it was "Lister" and "Kryton"...
