I have a co-worker with a number of Spock sketches up on his whiteboard (which I actually started), with Evil Spock (with beard), Vincent van Spock (one ear), etc.
Today he said he had to erasing some of the more obscure Spocks (like one that was evidently a Babylon 5 reference) with Spocks people would be more likely to recognize.
I asked him: “Who are you going to give the money to?”
Him: “What do you mean?”
Me: “Don’t you know that there’s a hefty re-Spocking fee?”
