Bank of Canada is pleading with Star Trek fans to stop “Spocking” its five dollar bills. Since Leonard Nimoy’s death, Canadian folks have been “Spocking” the hell out of the five dollar bill that features a portrait of Canada’s seventh prime minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier.

Sir Wilfrid now sports, on certain bills at least, pointy ears, the signature Vulcan haircut and eyebrows and Spock’s mantra “Live long and prosper.”

Foreign paper currency always looks so odd to me.

I approve of this, but brow needs to be arched as if he were about to say, "Fascinating."

They also Snape them.



But, in comes the Canadian government to spoil everyone's fun.
quote:

For years, Canadians have enjoyed turning Sir Wilfrid Laurier into Mister Spock and Severus Snape on $5 bills. Sadly, those days are nearly done.

Using a pen or pencil to illegally, but hilariously, alter the picture of the former prime minister is about to become nearly impossible in November when the Bank of Canada puts the new polymer $5 into circulation. Not only will it be more difficult to use a pen or pencil on the plastic money, but the new image of Laurier really doesn't look very much like Spock or Snape.
Challenge accepted.

Gear up boys. This confirms a suspicion I've long held about Canada. We don't need to go to Asian societies anymore to bang women because their men aren't men.

We can save the airfare and drive to Canada.

Yeah and China had Bruce Lee too. Exceptions to the rule don't persuade me.
