I don't mind being laughed at. I'm happy to bring some levity to the world. Iron Man suits will never work because the idea of embedding a power source in a man's chest is dumber than dumb.

You get the idea, the list just goes on and on and on.  If some one wants to label some of them as science fiction, it doesn't bother me.

I live in a universe where the first great starship captain was played by Leslie Nielsen.  Or, at least I used to, no one around me believes it now.
