How you know you can tolerate and love me:
Get comfortable and preferably join in while I watch the Futurama episode "Where No Fan Has Gone Before" on repeat while mouthing the dialogue, while I also wonder out loud what it must have been like for the actors in the recording studio, such as who messed up the most takes by laughing so much. Plus all the inside jokes.
And then I shall start talking about animated versions of Babylon 5. Especially certain characters' heads in jars at the Head Museum. Because, you know, Walter Koenig. And the comment about "Look at Walter Koenig. After Star Trek, he became an actor." Smirk, cough Alfred Bester Psi Corp cough*
And then, of course, get comfortable while I start Netflixing Babylon 5. And later, My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. You think I'm kidding.
This is not the height of my nerdity, but it is close.
Also, I still need to find that Bab5 Psi Corp book series. Hello, Ebay, maybe?

B5 Was The Greatest Thing On TV Ever.

He'd be sassing the other heads, replacing his jar fluid with booze, headbutting Walter Koenig, and all the works. I guess the Centauri would have to have extra-large jars to hold their hair (they just wouldn't be the same without it!)
Morden: Yeah, that's right, Vir, you laughed when my head was on a pike in the garden. Who's laughing now, Head-In-A-Jar Boy? Where's your sassy little finger wave? Come on, you want a piece of me?
Vir: ...I hate you.

You even get the sense that they've started looking forward to them--with the new Comedy Central seasons, they'll wind up doing them before some episodes have even aired, and they talk about how much they hope it'll be well-received. They also periodically get totally absorbed in the episode and start laughing at the jokes. It's a lot of fun.
