His theory disproving Cowboy Super Bowl hopes is still talked about.

I imagine this is what it sounded like when he died:

Kind of an enormous douche.
Was it him, or was it the fact that he was the dumb person's go-to authority on everything?

You'd be like, "Pizza Hut is subpar." And then someone would be like, "Mmmmactually, the world's smartest man likes their crust. Checkmate."

You just know his brain is currently being transferred to Futurama-type living canister and he’s still communicating.

Seriously, in what way? I'm genuinely curious.
My exposure to him was that he was always trying to push his politics and his philosophy as if his scientific expertise qualified him to pontificate on things that were not facts. Neil DeGrasse Tyson has a similar problem except he's at least a little bit more of a common man.

Totally agree. I hate how politics has infected everything these days.

Oh ok thanks. I guess my only exposure to his politics that I remember was something pretty socialist regarding automation.
