Meet the internet's newest sexy science star, Mohawk Guy
Sure, ostensibly you stayed up to watch Curiosity land. But you just couldn't keep your eyes off the handsome specimen with the star-spangled 'hawk. Seven minutes of terror? Try seven minutes of HELLO, NURSE.
As always, the internet means knowing you're not alone in whatever you're into, even if what you're into is Inspector Gadget/Pokemon slash fic or something. And you were definitely not alone in swooning over Mohawk Guy, who is in fact awesomely named…
OH, man, Bobak Ferdowski. I love you, geek god of science. That's the best nerd name of all time...
Here's a song posted on Tumblr that had me LOL'ing:
I Like Big Mohawks and I Cannot Lie delilahsdawson: I like big mohawks and I cannot lie You other science geeks can’t deny That when a dude walks in With his stars shaved in And his hair up like a fin You go SQUEE.... Wanna watch it again All those scientists hugging their friends Cuz that hawk rocks fun defiance But what we’re excited about is SCIENCE. Oh NASA, we wanna work with ya And see your grainy pictures, My laptop tried to warn me, but That YouTube video’s making my Bandwith ornery. Ooh, Curiosity You say you wanna explore the scree? Well go, bot! Go, bot! Cuz you ain’t an average robot! I’ve seen that red sand So let’s give them a hand They sweat, they fret, they keep launching those turbo jets I’m tired of magazines Saying scientists are boring I saw the black and white landing on the moon But seeing Mars with a mohawk is making me swoon. So tumblr (yeah!) tumblr (yeah!) Do you like Bobak’s mohawk? (hell yeah!) Then meme it! Meme it! Meme that pink mohawk! It’s science with a hawk!
I see a guest spot on “The Big Bang Theory.” Penny may even go for this guy.
