I guess I don't see it. Screenshots anywhere for comparison?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It is a stuck dropdown. If you make your browser smaller, it will turn into an actual dropdown. It looks like someone heard about responsive design, but didn't really understand why or how.

It's actually not bad - it's likely too complex to make it responsive all the way down to mobile, and they have a mobile site for that function, but it fits perfectly for those browsing on different screens. I just wish they'd make it fixed width. The site's barren on my wide monitor.

Try using another browser or the private browsing mode. That can trigger it for me. Here's a shot: http://imgur.com/FULDM

I like the idea of the menu being responsive, but I dislike the drop shadow when it's open by default. The drop shadow makes it look too out of place.
