Volcanologist wants you to stop making that one 'Star Trek' joke, please
Trust us, you're hilarious. But you really need to let this Star Trek joke go.
Redditor Haoleopteryx is a volcanologist, meaning they're a scientist who studies volcanoes. Sadly, their job title leads them into many conversations with people who like to make the same, Star Trek-related dad joke.

Yes, Trekkies. "Volcanologist" sounds a lot like "Vulcanologist" but rest assured this Redditor does not scientifically study the genetics of Dr. Spock and his people.
As logical as that would be.
BONUS: Barb from 'Stranger Things' reimagined as a waffle. Just because.
