[quote=”thefrey”]I, being a big Lexx Fan had my cubical at work totally decorated a-la-Kai. Well and some Xev, 790 and Stan too. 😉

I have had a Kai screen saver since forever, and have been amused by the number of people it mesmerizes. 🙂 Many of them were guys too. Go figure. 😆

Occasionally, someone will observe that I must be a big sci-fi fan. My response to that is generally something along the lines of, “Duh! Do ya think?”[/quote]

If that observation were based solely on seeing abundant LEXX related materials, it actually would be unwarranted to conclude that you “must be” a big fan of science fiction. Of a “sci-fi” show, sure, but not [i]necessarily[/i] of the “genre”. It could be an aberration, it could be that that show is not a typical “sci-fi” (used in quotes again) offering.

I’ve comes across a number of people who adored LEXX, but didn’t consider themselves to be sci-fi fans. And a great many of the really die-hard science fiction fans hate the show, in my experience. It’s UNCONventional… hehe.

Reportedly, the new Battlestar Galactica has many avid viewers who are big on drama, but not generally fans of sci-fi.

Anyway, much as I like sci-fi, I hardly ever talk about it, nor do I have obvious sci-fi memorabilia about the house. I most probably will never go to a sci-fi convention, don the holy girdle of Kirk, or get jiggy-wiggy with a Brunnen-G’s wiggy.
