#1- There is a man who everybody always calls Pussfeller. It remains to be seen whether or not he actually likes that name.
#2- You can start running a bath in a Turkish bridal suite and then leave it when you find a gorgeous woman in your bed. You won't flood the hotel and it'll never be mentioned again.
#3- Sometimes the adventure that plays out pre-credits is more interesting than the film itself. Heroin-flavoured bananas! Imagine how the monkeys would react!
#4- Death by spine-stretching table would be the most humiliating fate imaginable. Not only would you die in a spa, but images of your final moments would make for a great GIF-based LOL.
#5- A valmorphanised "Japanese" Sean Connery looks awfully like a Vulcan Sean Connery. Live long and proshper!
#6- Tracy only turns up for Draco's birthday party every year because if he's ever unsure you'll accept a formal invitation, he'll send his men round to kidnap you.
#7- Blofeld is so unconvinced by his own drag act that he has to keep his pussy firmly in hand the whole time.
#8- "A small hat, belonging to a man of limited means, who lost a fight with a chicken"- in another life, Bond might have been a bitchy fashionista.
#9- If a character is annoying once, he'll be doubly annoying the second time around. Fuck you, Sheriff J.W. Pepper.
#10- "Any man who drinks Dom Perignon '52 can't be all bad." And any man who kills a fish-lover and then drinks the liquor from his escape pod is more of a magnificent bastard than I realised. Kudos, Roger Moore.
#11- The explosion of several dozen beautiful civilians goes unmourned, but to be fair, really ridiculously good-looking people die in freak gasoline-fight accidents every day.
#12- This Christmas, a delicatessen of stainless steel is not the way to say "Sorry I Assassinated Your Wife On Your Wedding Day And Tried To Murder You With A Remote Control Helicopter."
#13- "Octopussy" was just a cute nickname from her dead dad. This series is corrupting my mind.
#14- Roger Moore's appearance on The Muppet Show was actually better than five of his seven Bond movies.
#15- Austrian border control might as well be scaled back to a sign that reads "You must be at least this awesome to enter".
#16- Felix has put his life on the line for Bond, "many times". Presumably all off screen. Still, that explains why he's so often regenerated...
#17- Amongst Bond's many superpowers, he can get himself and Xenia
dressed, out and about, presumably while still holding her at
gunpoint.
