Sci-fi fan gets Spock ears

A sci-fi fan in China has had plastic surgery to give himself ears like Star Trek's Dr Spock.

The young man astonished surgeons in Nanjing by telling them he wanted alien-like pointy ears.

He told them he was bored with the shape of his ears and wanted to make them a 'more interesting' shape.

Plastic surgeons tried to talk the man out of the idea but he was adamant and the operation went ahead, the Yangtze Evening News reported.

Cosmetic surgery has boomed in popularity in China in recent years but the operation in Nanjing is believed to be the first of its kind.

Do you think people in China have actually seen Star Trek? ;)

All that has happened here is that the person wanted pointy ears, and the article author immediatly attributes this to Spock from Star Trek.

Or maybe he has seen it, who knows? ;)

It could be an Elf or Fairy fetish. LOTR is pretty big these days...

God help me for doing this and I'm sure i'll be sent down to the seventh level of hell - but it isn't DR Spock, but MISTER Spock. The Doctor geezer was the one who knew a lot about babies back in the seventies.

I am just so ashamed of myself that I might have to put on my starfleet pyjamas and go back to bed. :D

:) Yes, Gene Roddenberry was inspired to take the Spock name from Dr. Spock, MD. And Dr. Spock went back even further, 50's and 60's.

Cool - never knew that one. All I knew was that my parents had the book, but judging how I turned out there was no way in hell that they ever read it!! :D
