Great interview and man. Who did the lighting tho? Got struck by a resemblance due to the shadow under his nose. Hilarious.

@fuckamericanidiot all you've done is reiterate what ive just said.

@stitcha123 it is a perfectly acceptable analogy and i'm sure most of the people there (including the laughing ones) agree with me

@fuckamericanidiot i get that it seems a perfectly acceptable analogy not worth laughing at, even in a jovial sense. dont YOU get it?

@stitcha123 because he's using star trek as a comparison for describing a big part of life. it's star trek! you don't get it?

God, Stephen Fry is just brilliant.

@stitcha123 I think they're laughing at the use of the example itself. Maybe it's unfair, but most people don't think of Star Trek as a legitimate subject for a philosophical essay. I think that's mainly it...

@A3roboy "Tim Tam" is a chocolate biscuit thingy. Australians love it. Ask Wikipedia.

I find it that bit very funny. It is sth. unexpected to hear in this setting that most experience of humanity may be expressed in "Star Trek" plots. Highly entertaining. Nice one.
