TR Contest: The Weakest Link

I need this day and work week to be over, so here’s the deal — give me the “weakest link,” and I’ll give you a TR t-shirt. That is, the crappiest member of any team in nerd-dom: For example, Mekaneck, the Master of the Universe whose power was only having an extending neck, was so useless he had an entire episode of the cartoon devoted to him bitching and moaning about how useless he was. Also, I would think that Cobra’s Raptor was likely the one guy who no one sat next to in the cafeteria, since he was both a lawyer and a dude in a snake-themed terrorist organization who inexplicably dressed like a bird. Last but not least, you could point out that Dawn was eternally the most usless member of Buffy‘s Scooby Gang, but since she so recently lost her virginity to a Dalek, I think we should cut her a break.

So here we go. Toys, cartoons, anime, videogames, TV shows, movies — as long as they’re appropriately nerdy. I don’t want to have to read some bullshit about Klinger being dead weight on M*A*S*H. Keep it nerdy. As per usual, here are the rules, and the contest ends at 3 am EST on Monday, April 27th. You guys have a great weekend, and try to avoid cucumbers as much as possible.
