Apparently today is Nerd Christmas, because this photo is getting passed around the Geekosphere with remarkable alacrity. It’s Dirk Benedict and Katee Sackhoff having a cup of coffee in a cafe together. Or, in “Battlestar Galactica” fanboy parlance: Starbuck and Starbuck drinking Starbucks in Starbucks. You’ll notice that Benedict is drinking the original hot coffee, while Sackhoff opted for the newer, sexier iced coffee. I like to think that their entire conversation was “Malkovich? Malkovich. MALKOVICH!”

Yo dawg, I heard you like starbucks so I put some starbucks in yo’ starbucks.
Or, alternatively:
I was sitting in a Starbucks when a couple of Starbucks walked into the Starbucks and the–BRAAAAAAAHM!!
After coffee, Benedict got a facial with Bradley Cooper
Oh Dirk Benedict. You were second only to John Schneider on the list of men I loved as a pre-teen (with the list being rounded out with Shaun Cassidy at a distant 3rd). Such fond memories. Although, thinking of those 3 makes me realize that feathered hair on men was a terrible, terrible idea.
This is several years old and was a promotional appearance for the show. From wiki:
‘The original “good mood” towards the new series resulted in a meeting with Katee Sackhoff at, appropriately, a Starbucks coffee shop from which the pair hosted a promotional preview special, Battlestar Galactica: The Lowdown; Benedict passes a cigar to Sackhoff in a kind of “passing the torch” ceremony’

(*walks down hallway with arm around head cheerleader girlfriend*)
If it’s so old, why no infini-gif? Damn you internet, zoom it up!
The only thing dorkier than liking this photo? Dismissing it because you saw it years ago.
I feel like I would appreciate this more if I’d ever watched the original BSG.
Lady Starbuck is still ridiculously awesome, though.
In my mind, he is breaking Murdoch out of an asylum and she is dead….slain by Jack Bauer’s vengeance
This photo is from four years ago. It made the rounds then. You are dismissed.
*pushes up glasses*
Uh, four years ago? Are you saying that it was exactly 1,460 days ago that this photo first appeared on the Internet? Try 1,572 days, 6 hours, 37 minutes, 48 seconds and 23 nanoseconds. Someone get that moron an atomic calendar.
*farts, waves it at troll*
I saw a real fanboy in the wild at the theater watching Thor. He sat alone, thanking the movie for providing a Stan Lee cameo and tried to start a round of applause after the bonus footage.
FUCK YOU DANA WALSH, I STILL HATE YOU!
@MenaceIISobriety,
I was just having my fun! Who are you to judge me?! The applause would have worked if there more than 4 people still in the theatre, and 2 of them weren’t beating me up!
@ Bobby Big Wheel –
“with”, or “From”?
Oh yeah, Matt, haven’t you heard? this pic is like 4 years old! ZOMG GET WITH IT!
Today isn’t Nerd Christmas, it’s Mexican Mother’s Day.
I suspect Adama and madmaude have a bet going as to what the combination was that Captain Kirk used to open the safe when he left his quarters for the last time in Episode 25.
You can tell it’s old because the Starbucks logo still has the text “Starbucks”
/gets a double wedgie for being both a BSG and branding nerd.
Yes, but where is Dick Starbuck, Porno Detective? HUH?!? Where is he? Shameful.
@Zack: I also suspect madmaude and Adama have a bet going as to who loses his virginity last. They’re both currently winning.
I’m waiting for the version where they use copies of Moby Dick for coasters.
She can get MY sackhoff.

Four year old photo or not, I still masturbated to it.
(But I was thinking of Alison Brie gifs)
