This is my new favourite fandom meme. Yes. I loved the Peter/Neal one especially.
I think that Kirk/McCoy would fail spectacularly, because Kirk wouldn't even bother trying, and McCoy would ignore and unspoken requests for broccoli on principle. Whereas Spock/Uhura would at least get a C for effort, because they would try to understand each other, and Spock would end up with sandwiches and Uhura would get potatoes. Of course, my sadly-neglected pairing of choice wouldn't fare too much better --
Sulu: I thought we banned drunken charades after that one time. Kirk: [mimes broccoli shapes] Sulu: Really? You want to pick up chicks in the middle of the supermarket? I'd say your standards are dropping, but then again, it's you.
Ooh, and then we could get into comics fandom. Captain America and Iron Man... would probably pass, actually. Or rather, they'd get the broccoli right.
Tony: So we need to run by the supermarket. Cap: But broccoli is out of season! Tony: They import it from South America now. Cap: How is that supporting American industry? Tony: This is the economy of the future!
And then they end up getting something else anyway.
I could go on. This is really, really fun. (And, er, sorry for turning up on your journal and ranting excitedly at you. Apparently other people also liked this post, and linked it on their journals.)
