I feel so much better about my Lego Millenium Falcon. ---

My co-worker thinks he shaved his head so he could look more like Patrick Stewart. ---

Has anyone noticed that the place is up for sale on [eBay](http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2313535427&category=12605)? (I think that’s a new image he posted – if the link doesn’t work, go to eBay’s home page and search for “Star Trek apartment”.) Asking price: $2 million. Yow. ---

So, if it sells… he’ll still be a geek. A rich geek, sure… :dubious: _Live Long; Sell High_ ---

Well, I look for the positive in (most) everything. I thought: 1. he sure knows his Macromedia Flash 2. I wonder if he gets his damage deposit back? Then I read further that it was Moms basement, pondered a moment, and thought #2 should still stand. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Dijon Warlock \* > \*\*Something you want to share with us, **Tuckerfan**? 😃 \*\* I’m still beating my wife, if that’s what you mean. 😉 My point is that it _is_ a lot of fun to point and laugh, but how many of us would do it if we thought that he was a Doper? Presumably, you’ve read **SPOOFE** ’s toothpaste post, which is riotiously funny, but AFAIK, there’s not a pile-on thread laughing about it. Were it anybody _but_ a Doper, there’d be threads galore about some schmuck who decided to use toothpaste under those circumstances. It being a Doper who posted that comment, the laughing is pretty restrained. That being said, it _is_ pretty funny that this guy did it. ---

Actually, that thought has crossed my mind many a time on this board. I mean, sure we laughed at **JDT** , but we knew he posted here, so that’s not the same thing. It’s when people crop up for discussion that it’s popular to hate that I try to take a backseat just for the reason you mentioned. Slamming the Olsen Twins as “gibbon-faced” imps, trolls, what have you, is quite common on this board, but I’ve passed on the fun so far. They’re getting cuter all the time, and I want to be on their good side should they ever start lurking…y’know, just in case. :dubious: ---

I know a woman who, if invited into that Star Trek abode, would drop to her knees and give him 20! I’ll be emailing her that URL… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ladies-and-gentlemen-the-search-for-the-king-of-all-geekdom-has-been-found/164749.md?page=3)
