See Spock Shill for Hallmark
Ah, Christmas. If you watched TV in the 90s, you probably remember Hallmark’s relentless commercials for new commemorative ornaments around this time of year. They had one for everything! I had a little light-up space shuttle ornament with opening loading bays, even. What space shuttles have to do with Christmas, I have no idea.

If you thought his trademark Vulcan greeting meant “live long and prosper,” well, you might learn a little something today.
