Well ain't that a kick in the nuts.

Meh he's still a good actor so I don't really care, moseltov to him and his partner.

[dogscoff]

He's also a vampire! Look at the photo in that article- ther'e no way that's a 68 year old man: He's immortal. Vampire, goddabe.

[Fyron]

It means nothing.

Though, I have always suspected him of vampirism...

[dogscoff]

Totally a vampire. And check out the red shades- if he took those off and exposed his eyes to sunlight, he'd be dust. Vampire.

[Starhawk]

LOL crude joke flashes into brain.....smacks self hard on face.

Anyway yeah Asians age well it's just a fact of life, look at Pat Morita (AKA Mister Miagi (sp?). Or Jet Li, or Jackie Chan or well hell the list goes down my arm lol.

Well I should rephprase Asians age well if they live in good conditions, if they live in the slums they age like every other slum dweller.

Looks up Jet Li's age... That guy's 42!!!?? Wow... I thought he had to be under 30 at least. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

/me wonders how old TerranC really is http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[Renegade 13]

That's...unexpected.

[Atrocities]

This is really old news..... He somewhat hinted around and kinda sorta came out of the closest some twenty years ago... *sigh*, this is just publicity for his new stage roll.

[sachmo]

Anyone who didn't see this coming needs to have their gaydar checked.

[Baron Munchausen]

Heh...

Rather than being about Takei being gay I guess the late-night TV jokes will be about how Trekkers didn't even notice that he didn't ever have girlfriends or a wife... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[Atrocities]

Back in 84/85 he admitted that he was gay. Back then it came as somewhat of a shock. Now, now he is just a pathetic old dude trying to capitolize on the publicity of his "official" annocement, (not that it has been confirmed) to benefit his new role.

At least he doesn't live at home with his mommy, he isn't fat and balding, and he doesn't obsess over every finite detail of every episode of star trek.

And for the record, its not SULU who is gay, the character has a daughter and a wife, it is the Actor George T. who is preportedly gay. Again not officially confirmed this time, but we'll see.

Most trekkers wouldn't see anything wrong with that as they haven't either lol

(Sorry couldn't resist)

Hey AT that's a bit harsh besides I wasn't even ALIVE back in 84/85 so I certainly never heard about it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[EvilGenius4ABetterTomorro]

Set course for Uranus!

[Starhawk]

Bad but not as bad as what I was thinking http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

With the whole vampire thing it was too easy to think "Uh he ain't sucking......blood" heh see what i mean that's just TERRIBLE and kids don't ever ever repeat that at home http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Oh man, I just couldn't stop laughing when I read this! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif Almost made me spill my drink everywhere!

[Ed Kolis]

Speaking of Uranus, did you know that it and Neptune aren't really gas giants? I read in a recent issue of Discover that they're really made of ice and frozen methane! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

[Randallw]

The first thing that came to mind was that episode where he ran around Enterprise with no top, baring his oiled torso while wielding a sword.

[Hunpecked]

He's gay, Jim.

[Atrocities]

I guess those five years out in space without a women was just too much for old George.... and yes, he is a vampire.... that or an alien from Dick Clarks planet.

[Ed Kolis]

Geez guys, I thought we were supposed to be a model Internet community and too mature for this kind of stuff... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Puke]

mature? where? Hell, I'd be gay, if I was in better shape and had any sense of style. You should see how fit the gay guys around here are, its infurating. I hate them for it.

I mean, jeeze! spend one day away from the gym, or something! have a piece of pie!

...not that i'm bitter, or anything.

[Atrocities]

SULU is not gay, the ACTOR who played SULU is reportedly Gay.

No wonder he always had his back to the captain.

This is by far the funniest thing I have heard all week.

[Arkcon]

MSNBC loves to mention FARK.com all the time. I think they sponser them or are the "actual" owners of the site.

[Starhawk]

LOL I am just glad we never heard Sulu call anyone a Tight *** hehehe.

Anyway now on to being mature http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[Atrocities]

Ok enough... this topic must be allowed to die now!

[Artaud]

Good for Mr. Takei. Let's put a lid on the jokes, guys. A person is who he is, and should not be a target of humor because of it.

[Sabrax]

At risk of sounding rude...Who Cares? You know back in the fifties..hell even up to the eighties and nineties to an extent i guess it might have caused waves but nowadays? I have to agree he's probably just comin out to get his name back into the press for whatever he's doin now.
