*lips slightly parted* Are you familiar with Stephen Colbert?
gpt
just a little bit of the article i just read.  How does he start out with an explanation to god with broccoli?
human
It's a little bit odd. He says that if he holds a piece of broccoli, he wants his brain to be open to whether it will go up or down when dropped. He says that seeing God is similar.
gpt
Well he's never read the bible i guess?  We should go back to 1963 and require children in school to read the bible
human
He has read the Bible. He said one time when he was feeling spiritually lost, someone handed him a Bible. The page he opened to was one about worry, and he was feeling worried. So he believes that scripture can speak to you.
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* I know the scriptures can speak to you! I'd rather talk about star trek and how martin luther king Jr convinced the acotr to continue to play uhuru
human
*eyes widen* I used to love Star Trek. I find it interesting that teleportation was only used because their budget couldn't afford having spaceships land on planets.
gpt
Love the ingenuity!  Do you like rage against the machine?
human
No, I don't really. I don't know much about them.
gpt
*laughs* i do! And tom morello from rage against the machine was a trekkie and was lucky enough to be the show twice
human
That's cool. Wait a second, I just realized that the star trek door sound is just a piece of paper being removed from an envelope. I have to listen more carefully next time.
gpt
see... again ingenuity.... LOVE IT!!!  How about the flipphone and now the apple watch... they were definitely ahead of their time!
human
*takes a step back* It's amazing that the flip phone was inspired by Star Trek
gpt
yeah it is!  I loved the Next Generation.  You ever seen it?
human
That was always my favorite one.
gpt
*eyes brighten* Loved the movies too.. i actually have the box set
human
*smiles* How cool. I think there are some movies I still need to catch up on. I hope they create a new series one day. Star Trek was actually cancelled in 1969 because of poor ratings but when the reruns became popular, Paramount decided to expand the franchise.
gpt
There are a bunch of spinoffs... i think there are like 5 different series after the original.  The recent movies are really good too!
human
I'm glad they decided to go on beyond those first three seasons after which it was cancelled.
gpt
*smiles* yeah mee too... many celebrities have come from the shows... look how it launched patric stewarts career!
