What is a trekkie?
Someone who likes Star Trek? I think not.
I think a trekkie is someone who knows how the dylithium plagomatic crystal converts motoresonic energy into a plasma converter that then generates warp drive capacity. (Note: I made up all of those words, I don't actually know anything about crystals or plasma). If someone simply watches, lets say Star Trek The Next Generation, and they enjoy it, I wouldn't say that person is then a trekkie. And I think that if a person was to know general knowledge trivia about Star Trek, for example what is spok (especially even if they cannot spell it)? Everyone knows Spock (I asked someone else how to spell it) is a Vulcan, everyone! If someone doesn't know that I would say that person is a loser and those who do know it are not necessarily trekkies.
And I think that it is very uncool for someone, who would normally have some authority in what a person likes and owns, to tell other people that the first person has a star trek communicator they velcro to their chest, tap, and go "bloo bloop, captain to the bridge." That is just plain mean. Mean mean mean mean, especially when no such item exists and the audience of such a story believe it. MEAN, I TELL YOU MEAN!!!!
