Awesome Thing of the Week

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Just when we were digging into our congratulatory "You Da MAN" cake after posting the highest-rated Awesome Thing of all time, you put us squarely in our place by rating last week's video a measly 6.221 on the Scale of Awesomeness. Surely the mad dancing skillz and incomparable adorableness of Joseph Gordon Levitt deserve at least an 8?

Alas, it seems you don't agree. So we're switching gears and throwing something completely devoid of sweater vests your way. This video was submitted by trekkie-bookie, and even though we aren't the biggest Star Trek fans, we'll admit to laughing out loud when we saw it. Strap on your spaceship seat belts and prepare to reach warp speed: this clip is FUNNY.

Oh, and one little side note: YouTube has disabled the ability to embed the video in this post (that's fancy scientist talk for "it doesn't work real good"), so you're going to have to gather all of your strength and CLICK HERE. We know it's difficult. We know it's inconvenient. We know it will take every ounce of energy and resolve in your body, but we believe in you. And miracles. And Peter Pan, but only partially. JUST CLICK ALREADY.
