    A man walks into a bar … I love watching stuff like this because it’s so gloriously cheeseball that it’s unintentionally funny!

    “Welcome to Star Fleet!” “Thanks! I’m really looking forward to boldly going to strange, new worlds and doing lots of science and adventure!” “You’ll have to wear a uniform.” “I’m okay with that.” “Here you go!” “Where’s the rest of it?” “What do you mean? That’s it.” “This is a cocktail dress.” “That’s the official… Read.
