George Takei is Our New Nerd King
Some of you may be following the sci-fi spat between William Shatner and Carrie Fisher, or respectively, Capt. Kirk from Star Trek and Princess Leia from Star Wars. I haven’t been, because I don’t like to indulge in celebrity BS. A new chapter of the spat has unfolded, however, one that I have to share. But to set the scene, Shatner started the whole mess in an interview by saying Star Wars was derivative of Star Trek. Then Carrie Fisher did her own interview refuting him. Then Shatner made a personal video message to Fisher. Good-natured snarky fun was hard by all.
Well Star Trek’s George Takei has stepped forward to try and broker peace in a video that must be viewed by all science fiction fans.
The Henchman-4-Hire hereby pledges himself to George Takei’s cause! We must unite, my brothers and sisters in nerd!
The Funniest Pokemon Battle Ever!
Be warned, there is excessive swearing in this video.
But the guys at Egorapter animated the funniest fucking pokemon battle ever. It’s well animated and very well written. One tip for people who aren’t familiar with pokemon, the creatures are only supposed to say their name. Watch and enjoy, my friends!
