    This reminds me of that scene in star trek where someone had sequenced the DNA of their perfect woman… They were equally proud of it as the guy in the above photo is of whatever that is.

    Edit: I was thinking of a scene from Mission to Mars, not Star Trek TNG.

            The further I think on it and try googling, I can’t find anything on it. I know it’s a scene from something, but I’m starting to think it was a movie not TNG

        Darkpanda got it. It was mission to Mars, a movie where someone makes a DNA sequence out of Skittles and calls it his “perfect woman”

          That movie was beyond stupid. I think I even saw it in the theatre. There’s like 3 billion base pairs in a strand of human DNA and Sliders over here uses his space skittles to form like a dozen base pairs and proclaims it’s his perfect woman’s DNA. That wouldn’t be enough for a bacterium’s ass let alone a human being, your perfect woman is severely broken dude.

            Yes! I remember thinking the same thing! No way in hell did he have enough Skittles to do what he said he was doing. Unless he was just bullshitting or trying to look smart. I haven’t seen that movie in so long, I can’t remember if he was actually supposed to be smart, or was just making it up.

              That movie was played completely straight, where there was no dummy comedic relief character. They were all scientists and it was very serious. They wanted to make their own 2001 A Space Odyssey but ended up making a high production Plan 9 From Outer Space. I remember when it came out that all of the interviews with the actors and De Palma were so serious and self-important and after the movie came out they just seemed delusional. The movie is comically bad in terms of … literally everything. Even Gary Sinese’s hair, man. Even the hair.

      Are you perhaps thinking of the Brian De Palma film Mission To Mars? Where Jerry O’Connell makes a DNA shape using skittles or some shit?
