The Trekkies are insulting TK

[Hacker240]

Hey I go to a Catholic school, and let me tell you, the teachers arent as nice as they seem. No offense. How od you have time to be on AO so much and still do all the things you mentioned. j/k i had to have my signature mad face.

While, usually, I take a lot of the jabs and insults in stride, sometimes it just gets old, you know? Trekkies are always being portrayed as people who have no life, live with their parents at 35, are totally socially inept, geeks, etc. I just wanted to let you know more about me, as a means to break the sterotype, or at least chip away at it...

BTW - We are not allowed to beat the children anymore... Catholic schools have changed a lot in the last 50 years. I am a really fun teacher! Just ask my kids!

yes

Hacker - I'm sorry you are not having a positive experience at your school. Many Catholic schools have tried in recent years to improve relationships with students, parents, and faculty.

It is easy to do all of the things I do. You can always manage to fit in the things you love. I'll admit, days are too short, but, there is always a way!

Didn't Shatner play that up a bit on Sat. Night Live or something?

[retrotrek]

Yeah, he did, and he's been apologizing ever since! LOL

Really, guys. I'm just asking you to open your minds and see us as the individuals we are, instead of lumping us into the loser category, automatically, becuase we are Trekkies or Shatner fans...

Can you do that, for me? Please?

[spazzed]

Retrotrek, I want to appologize for the minority that continue to be punks. I hope you've learned that they are in now way the majority of us.

Thanks, Spazzed.

My invite still goes out to AO for 8 PM pacific time, one hour from now for "What's That They Are Saying". It's always entertaining!

I wish there was a qualitative filter on the "Notify of response" feature, which would notify me when GOOD responses are made...that way I wouldn't rush over here to read a post, just to read this...

[the JoKeR]

Then you're certainly not going to be happy about coming back just to read this!
