    I would never say it to his face, but Wil Wheaton is a gifted content creator (acting, blogging, videos) and a wonderful person.

      Say it to him! Wil has gone through it with the fandom and deserves to know his work is appreciated and celebrated. He was just a kid when people didn’t like Wesley on screen and told him to his face, at least we can tell adult Wil he’s a very good boy and we love him very much

        I actually always liked Wesley

        I’ll probably never run across him but if I do and it was a situation that made sense I’d tell him.

      Apparently some people hate them just for him, but I really enjoyed his narration of Ready Player One and John Scalzi’s Interdependency series.

        I definitely don’t hate him, I think he’s great and funny

        I was misquoting the office, I’d probably be too shy to approach him but i would have no problem telling him his blog is courageous and it’s nice to have a celebrity being really open and honest about mental health.

    His tumblr blog is righteous. I’m not down with the Wes-bashing around here. That’s the sort of dishonorable dreck some of you p’tahk enjoy.

      It’s done from a place of love and appreciation, for me at least. (H)Wil (H)Wheaton is a treasure.

    Man, in some ways, Wil looks exactly the same as he did when he first stepped onto the Enterprise. I want to be one of those people that ages so nicely, dammit.

    Nowadays we’d write it as X.I.U. because wade-giles is just a mess.
