The three separate opinions joke was never funny

To be fair, neither were you.

[flanl3]

Has this joke run it’s course?

Jokes don’t ever truly run their course, people just stop being as good at using them effectively, which was clearly just the case for you given how poorly executed that joke was, and also you should have used its instead of it’s.

That, by the way, is how you combine three separate opinions into one. I bet Jawscvmcdia feels like a total novice right now.

[flanl3]

And on Back in the Red, why did they uncombine one episode into three separate episodes?

[flanl3]

I’ve got an important question about the BtE Director’s Cut.

…

…

Why did they combine three episodes into one though?

[flanl3]

HOLLY: You’ve got your basic dimensions, right, length, breadth, depth, and time. The fifth dimension is co-existing realities, three separate opinions which share the same space but are unaware of having been combined into one.
RIMMER: Sounds like my parents in bed.

[flanl3]

Consuming Large Ideal Three-Opinion sets and Regurgitating them In one Single opinion.

It’s about as much of a stretch as the original.

[flanl3]

I feel like this thread has been derailed some. We still haven’t answered the original question – why DID you combine three separate opinions into one?

[flanl3]

I mean, it’s given me a couple extra websites to visit when I’m bored.

Oh, chair, I could’ve phrased that better.

To clarify, I do not come to G&T just to tug the whistle.

[flanl3]

I mean, it’s given me a couple extra websites to visit when I’m bored. And a couple people I know about but have never met. Yet.

[flanl3]

RIMMER: Maybe, maybe, OK? Breaking your leg hurts like hell, OK? “Hell.” They do it below the knee, “low.” “Hel-lo,” gettit? They do it twice — twice, “two.” “Hello to.” And the jigsaw must mean “you.” Combine those three opinions into one, you get “Hello to you.”
CAT: I wouldn’t like to be around when one of these suckers is making a speech!

[flanl3]

My phone’s being an ass and won’t let me copy things so I’ll just assume you know what post I meant to quote.

Nobody in Back to Earth called series X the best yet.

[flanl3]

I think this breaks the spoiler policy.

[flanl3]

It seems they could have M-Corp as well? Possibly. But it seems odd that they missed all the easy ones.

[flanl3]

Oh, also, I think it’s important to point out that ‘twat’ has the word ‘at’ in it.

[flanl3]

“Butt” has the word “but” in it.

Isn’t there a thread or two about this?

[flanl3]

They could at least call it series IX if they’re going to make the mistake.

[flanl3]

series 9

*pats DigitalSpy on head*

Okay. You keep believing that.

[flanl3]

What if Sonic VI was written by Rob & Doug back together for ITV clocher to 1997 than 2017 and it was butter than Series X Remastered?

[flanl3]

because rimmer technically isn’t a human, he’s just sort of a big bit of light

…and Lister’s just a small bit of heavy.

[flanl3]

*coughs*

So, according to this, I’m a hooligan!

[please pay attention to me]

[flanl3]

Do we technically have any proof that the pre-cutback Blue Midgets couldn’t do that in real life? In fact, I’d take the dance sequence as proof that they could.

[flanl3]

I mean, to be fair, there are some less-high-quality episodes in VI, for example, there is perhaps just a chance that I could maybe be alluding to Emohawk.

Is it too late to nominate something for Hall of Fame status? If not, I nominate this thread for Hall of Fame status.

If it is, I also nominate this thread for Hall of Fame status.

[flanl3]

I wonder if the picture of Rimmer waving through a window (that I believe exists) will be used in place of a storyboard for Earth

[flanl3]

I’m noticing that this link no longer works. Given that this is imperative to the operation of the brand new shiny Hall of Fame, I think it’s important that the updated link be provided so that people can still read this important piece of history.

Silly Seb. You and your new forum.

I had a Red Dwarf dream last night. I was listening to some podcast to help me fall asleep, and it was some mystery podcast – don’t quite remember – and anyways, I managed to fall asleep in the middle of the podcast, and the story seamlessly transitioned into my dream. This dream slowly revealed itself to actually be Siliconia – and I was suddenly quite excited to be watching RDXII.

Anyways, spoilers, but Siliconia is an episode presented as a very dark mystery where Rimmer can’t stop growing breasts – the count gets up to forty or fifty by the end. It’s fairly ugly and presented very non-sexually (unless you have to be into that kind of stuff) and Danny John-Jules and Norman Lovett have started acting each other’s roles. Very mysterious, somewhat of a detective show, quite introspective, dealt with current social issues very well, overall about 9/10.

[flanl3]

To be fair, if you’re Hollister, millions of light-years from the nearest JMC authority who might care (likely dead), then you’re probably done enough with all of them that you’re willing to just leave them behind and ignore protocol and directives. Whoops.

[flanl3]

He dreamed up having dreamed up the whole thing.

[flanl3]

I might be wrong but I think there’s a XI = teal, XII = orange delineation.

So, XII is to VIII as X is to I and XI is to II? Great to hear.

[flanl3]

We’ll just have to wait for him to show up and make fun of all of us, I guess.

[flanl3]

Test

That post was really meta, tbh.

[flanl3]

How many pictures of SMEG toasters have been posted on Red Dwarf subreddits?

[flanl3]

Should *o**** L***** have shut up before he said all that stuff?

[flanl3]

What if every Red Dwarf episode was in Series XI?

[flanl3]

Should Red Dwarf have continued after 1984?

[flanl3]

Series IX

Whyyyyyyyyy

[flanl3]

Should someone else have made the “Should this thread have continued after post VI?” joke after I already made it?

Should somebody really have pointed out that I accidentally stole a joke?

Should somebody have noticed that it was in dire need of being made again?

[flanl3]

Should this thread have continued after post VI?

[flanl3]

It’s a better SOS than the Samsara tried.

“Oh, yes, let’s invite everyone to our orgy. That’ll make them want to come and save us!”

Wait, no, that’s an excellent SOS. Never mind.

[flanl3]

Cucumber is an alright actor, but I think people fancy him more than he deserves.

[flanl3]

The camera bubbles because they’re in an unreality explosion.

[flanl3]

I mean, I never would have guessed that the camera had AI if it hadn’t exploded. Was it actually listening to and analyzing what Lister was saying? Why?

[flanl3]

A very low level of AI. It’s a fairly simple joke, it’s not like it makes everything explode. Thus, Kryten.

[flanl3]

What if they went back in time amd killed themselves over the time drive?

[flanl3]

What? No! This is the regular discussion of a fandom which is completely and totally not bored!

[flanl3]

Then where do we place the starbug upper deck set?

[flanl3]

[flanl3]

We should make a comprehensive list of shows with nanobots, nanites, or both.

But knowing this site, we’d only come up with a list of the ones with neither.

[flanl3]

Shut up. I know it probably didn’t make sense. And I probably didn’t get my afternoon under-the-table nap today because I was hiking tenish miles.
