Thanks to the Internet, if you decide you'd like to trash talk a celebrity, there's a pretty good chance that they may actually see it. And there's also a good chance that they may respond.

Facebook user Wajih Kelly decided that well, George Takei, known best for his role on Star Trek as Hikaru Sulu, sucked. But instead of keeping this emotion inside, or maybe expressing their hatred to a friend, they decided to spew some hate on Facebook.

"George Takei you SUCK," Kelly wrote, tagging the actor. In the post.

Takei responded with the perfect IDGAF response. "And well, I'm told," Takei commented back. He then took a screenshot of the interaction and shared the photo to his 9 million+ followers.

But less than three hours later, Kelly decided that they would rather be Internet friends than Internet enemies.

However, it was too late. Kelly received the full wrath of Internet hate from Takei fans. Kelly shared a photo of some of the messages, and they're as awful as you would expect.
