IT WAS RICHARD FUCKING DAWKINS
Okay. OKAY. OMFG, OKAY.
I CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE.
YOU SEE THIS MAN? YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU LAST SAW HIM? YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT, HE WAS IN 'THE STOLEN EARTH. DO YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?
NO, HE'S NOT JUST A FUCKING SCIENTIST.
HE'S RICHARD FREAKING DAWKINS.
AND YES, I DID SQUEE WHEN HE CAME ON THE SCREEN.
Would everyone PLEASE stop calling him just some 'random scientist'? He isn't just an actor who they just stuck in there. He's an evolutionary biologist who wrote The Selfish Gene, which is now a major evolutionary theory, he wrote The God Delusion, which was dedicated to Douglas Adams, a long time friend of his, and he's MARRIED to LALLA WARD. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. HE'S MARRIED TO ROMANA.
SO Y'ALL CAN SHUT UP NOW, KAY?
*deep breath*
I'm sorry. Really, I am. I love reading people's reaction to that episode, honest to God. It just... really grinds on my nerves when they're being so flippant about one of the smartest people I've ever read... it's like seeing Bill Gates and calling him 'some random computer scientist.' IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. And it's extremely, incredibly irritating.
