So, as some of you guys may already know, Leonard Nimoy, the actor who played Spock on the Star Trek TV show died today. Age 83. He died of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, a condition brought upon by his old smoking habit.
Please help honor this titan of entertainment, hero of nerds and good man.

I was disappointed how only my teacher, and then like, 4 other people of the 16 in the room actually knew who he was without me having to say “the spock guy”
I’ve never watched star trek. But he did voice Galavatron in the original Transformers movie I think… I thought that at one point he was supposed to voice Shockwave in Dotm… Would’ve been cool… guess it can’t happen now… that’s sad. Now I want to rewatch Transformers.
'Tis a sad day indeed. While I never watched more then a couple ST:OS episodes, I’ve seen all the movies and am a big Star Trek fan in general. Nimoy truly brought something new to sci-fi. He will be missed.
Im really saddened by his death, as Im a big fan of star trek ToS(which Im still currently watching) and Im a big fan of generally everything the man ever did. He always was a personal hero to me and his performance as the one and only spock is truly something that can never be matched. May you rest in peace Leonard Nimoy and live long and prosper.
