Whiny Trekkies Want To Go To Space

So you're a Trekkie -- you've wasted many of the best years of your life being a fan of a (to put it charitably) series of mixed artistic success, and you not only haven't gotten into space, you don't even have a flying car.

What do you do?

Yell at Paramount, and threaten to hold your breath and pout if they don't donate some of their money for space exploration.

This is exactly why I make fun of space enthusiasts. Please note that they're not even threatening not to see the new Trek movie; the most they can promise is that they won't see it on opening weekend. I bet that Monday will see a lot of middle-aged loners with Spock ears slinking into theaters nationwide.

There's a word for people like this, and it's "loser."
