    Only berated by John Cleese, or berated by John Cleese while also being taught foreplay?

    NSFW

    Edit: Yikes: didn't think youtube would embed in the comments section.

    I think it might be one of the ads that messes it up.

    Hearing that Goldeneye's multiplayer was slapped together in a month makes me feel like a real piece of shit for how little I can get done in a month.

    you're = you are
    your = belonging to you

    their = belonging to them
    there = not here
    they're = they are

    I've been using an older version of Flash to get around the problem, the link above got Flash working correctly.

    HAHA! Every six months or so I hear RealPlayer still exists and am, without fail, shocked.

    I'll just tell you all: the Goldeneye: Source mod is very fun. All the gameplay and maps of the original game, with mouse+keyboard support.

    Go play it!

    Man, I don't want this to sound like nerd oneupmanship, but there was a version of Trivial Pursuit on the Xbox where John Cleese was one of the hosts. He read all the history questions and sometimes gave you a hard time for getting them wrong. Honestly, I loved playing it because it also had a mechanic where you could vote on whether you thought the person answering would get it right or wrong. The downsides were Bill Nye always explaining science that needed no explanation and Whoopi Goldberg unfailing referring to pie pieces as "wedgies."

    John Cleese lives in California actually. In Santa Barbara.
