I just asked 5 people not in the IT department 2 knew who Picard was nobody knew who or what Dr Who was.
Dr. Who is a BBC show from the early 90's about basically a futuristic Sherlock Holmes who solves crimes in future London where aliens and robots coexist with humans. He has a robot dog sidekick (I think he calls him toaster) and a glowing pen that he can use to illuminate dark halls. Every episode is self contained and follows a pretty basic formula, so it was never quite as popular as like, Stargate or any of those other shows, and so it only lasted a few seasons.
The good doctor:
Sean, I can't tell if you are being ironic or that was just a well-placed accident...

The good doctor:
Psssshhh. Totally not The Doctor. Don't confuse people with that rubbish.
The real doctor:
His biggest fan, Jeff, unleashes Gwan-di, a Chinese demon and patron saint of bean curd, who begins to decapitate everyone in sight in the town of Gold Lick. Jeff, thinking of Bruce Campbell as his best known character, Ash from Evil Dead, kidnaps the actor to destroy the demon. Bruce, maybe a fan of The Three Amigos, thinks the townspeople are putting on a show to honor his glorious career and goes along until he learns the demon is real. He flees, but has a change of heart when he learns Jeff has set out to destroy the demon himself.

The Derm on
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position
Such a heavy burden now to be the one
Born to bare and read to all the details of our ending
To write it down for all the world to see
But I forgot my pen...
She's romantic, known to panic
With anxiety attacks
Literary, it's so scary
Reading Brontes back to back
She's playing Ragnarok on her mom's Magnavox
She's underneath my skin like a million nanobots

*sigh* So tired of the "PAX is not a dating service" stuff. Look, people are going to hit on other people. Why not? guys and girls in the same place which similar interests. Nothing wrong with that. Just be respectful about it, and who cares? What wrong with meeting someone you're attracted to who's as nerdy as you and UNDERSTANDS you for that?
EDIT: Calling out "HAWT" to someones pictures isn't respectful. I'll give you that.

Yeah, it's almost the equivalent of honking at girls on the sidewalk as you drive by. What good is going to do other than make you look like a tard? They aren't going to hop in your car, or send you a PM.
But yeah, all the crying over "PAX is not a dating service! What are you people DOING?" is equally played out.

I think it stems from the fact that women have enough trouble being taken seriously as members of what is historically a "boy's club". We try to enable an environment here where all can be equals, so it's a bit disappointing when people start cat-calling. :P
Is there anything wrong with admiring people who look good? Not really, no. But there are more appropriate places (like Accalon's Official Unofficial PAX Dating Service), and definitely more tactful approaches than "azns hot!!!1" and the like.
I guess what I'm trying to say, gents, is fuckin' Class Up.
What is the protocol for telling a young lady on the PAX forum that you do indeed find her picture pleasing to the eye and would not be adverse to sharing a game of Super Smash Bros or possibly a bawls with her at what now should probably be called the 2nd greatest event of the year?

If you want to avoid (certain) ridicule I'd suggest a PM. :P

Congratulations, sir, you just won the internet.

Has anyone seen "My Name Is Bruce" ?
Little bit about the movie;
His biggest fan, Jeff, unleashes Gwan-di, a Chinese demon and patron saint of bean curd, who begins to decapitate everyone in sight in the town of Gold Lick. Jeff, thinking of Bruce Campbell as his best known character, Ash from Evil Dead, kidnaps the actor to destroy the demon.

Not just any forum, Skarsol. This is Penny Motherfuckin' Arcade. It's a better class of forum, and you know it.
Sorry BA, but you just proved that we will never have any class because of that cake.
