I believe it was Carlin (or maybe it was me) who said he's waiting for a computer that can jerk him off. Then all the applause would be warranted.

(God, I'm in a cranky mood today.)

There was no "happy ending," if you catch my drift. His friends had to take him to the emergency room with the robotic hand still attached.

I do not like entertainment that insinuates anyone who's intelligent has something wrong with them, and that's the whole premise of that idiotic show: laugh at the geeky guys, aren't they just precious?

not the point of the show. Just give it up. You don't get it and never will. So go be self-righteous with someone else please.

BTW, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, Ira Flatow, Mike Massimino, George Smoot, Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak,
Mayim Bialik (Amy), Buzz Alldrin, Danica McKellar, and Stephen Hawking have all appeared on the show.

But then they're not snowflakes.
