I wonder who is the guy who recognized the thing as a Bat'leth? The convience store worker? The cop watching the videotape?

Your street cred is gone! Better go get drunk and do something stupid to make up for it.

The fact that youtube is blocked meant that I needed to google to find out, even after opening the thread.

I came into this thread wondering who would hold up two 7-11's in Lethbridge.

I didn't realize James Doohan had "invented" Klingon.

I voted yes but i'm not a big enough nerd to know Klingon. It turns out however, that I am a big enough nerd to try googling a Klingon to English translator.

I have never seen a whole episode of Star Trek or any of the movies. Yet I have spent 3 hours in the Star Trek Experience in Vegas. I now hate anything Star Trek related.
