Hence, the day has become a perfect opportunity to pay a tribute to the memorable performances of the actor. Watch your favorite episodes starring the actor and enjoy the nostalgia on this day.

History of Talk Like William Shatner Day

Impressionists had been paying tribute to the actor William Shatner for years. Finally, however, an official day was observed in 2009. Maurice LaMarche, a famous Shatner impressionist, posted a video clip on YouTube and declared March 22 as International Talk like William Shatner Day. In the video, LaMarche gave the viewers a tutorial on how Shatner can be imitated and pronounced several words in the actor’s iconic style. The video went viral since LaMarche already has a large fan following from his roles in “Futurama,” “The Simpsons,” “Pinky and the Brain,” “Frozen,” and more.

Similarly, Doug VanHorn had the same idea, and he created a Facebook page idolizing William Shatner’s impressions. After a short feud, both LaMarche and VanHorn decided to join forces. They came up with International Talk Like William Shatner Day. From thereon, we celebrate the day every year!

Shatner is also an author, producer, director, screenwriter, commercial astronaut, and musician. The role that has gained him an eternal fan following is his portrayal of Captain James T. Kirk of the U.S.S. Enterprise in the Star Trek franchise. He also starred in the first seven Star Trek movies and co-wrote several novels set in the Star Trek universe. Apart from Star Trek, Shatner also played a police sergeant in “T. J. Hooker” and moved on to host the reality-based television series “Rescue 911.”

Just got back from watching the newest Bluey episode and uh

Isn't that-

Did they just-

DID THEY JUST ACKNOWLEDGE THE BLUEY FANDOM'S CONTRIBUTION TO REDDIT'S R/PLACE?!

THEY DID!!!!! IT'S AN OFFICIAL RECREATION OF THE EXACT IMAGE!

That orange heart is meant to represent Bingo because she kept getting erased off the canvas and the Bluey peeps wanted to include her in some way

Oh my god what an Easter egg. I love it when show creators acknowledge the fans in some way :D

#bluey #bluey heeler #bingo heeler #bluey cartoon #i was there gandalf #My pixel is in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon subreddit's art #May not have watched Bluey yet at the time but I did watch the Flag™ consume Bingo #God I hated the flags #Except Canada watching them try and fail to draw a maple leaf was hilarious

I originally drew this for July's Patreon thank you image! July 1st is Canada Day, so I thought something showing my (our?) Canadian heritage would be good. :3 I redid the legs today, though. I think the new pose/sizes for them look better! It's kind of timely I'm posting this now since I voted in a provincial election yesterday, haha. GO NDP! 🧡

In other news! Having just been to Canada fucking EVERY logo has a little maple leaf added to it! It was Where’s Waldo with that sucker.

The little leaf started off normally enough- road signs and interstate stuff, very valid.

We got into town and didn’t think too much of it but a lot of signs and businesses had one incorporated. I’ll take it, you guys love that maple syrup.

But then. The sneaky ones started popping up. I used to work for a company called Sleep Country in the US, well there’s one in Canada too that’s unaffiliated. We were checking out the logo which seemed really similar. Except instead of having a hole in their “O” they had a tiny maple leaf.

Food Network had a little leaf under their logo.

But the real kicker was driving by a Denny’s and I was laser focused. I told my fiancée that there’s no way there wasn’t some sneaky leaf. As we rounded their big sign I screamed. The maple leaf was the apostrophe.

#ramblies #Canada #funny #It’s hard to weigh whether our flag usage is just as ubiquitous as the maple leaf #it’s in less logos for sure

Anon: Is grieving for their child and is worrying about their child's safety.

Banban: "My name is Dr. Uthman Adams, and I live in Montreal Canada. This is my message of atonement. Due to previous events my memory is now blurry, but I will explain to you everything I have known. Before I became Banban, I worked with the other researchers before everything came crashing down. I should have spoken up sooner, so this wouldn't have happened. There was an issue with the ball pit being structurally unstable, but we didn't take it as a serious issue. By the time I realized what we were doing wrong, it was too late. I wasn't taken seriously due to me being affected by the givanium and becoming this being. No, on the contrary, I was seen as a monster by my former researchers and coworkers. Many times I told them about the issues and yet they didn't take me seriously, so now I have to do the best I can to stop more damage from happening. The old Uthman couldn't understand the issues with what he did, but now I, the new Uthman, reborn from the givanium pit, shall attempt to redeem myself by helping your child. That is the most I can do for now as I am stuck in this form permanently, with almost all of my memories wiped. From now on I will better myself, no matter what happens next, I'll make sure of it."

Did you guys know that Canada selected their current flag in 1965 and this was the contender? It’s kind of an iconic piece of Canadian history.

#If Canada was truly a democracy this would have been our flag this is what the people wanted. #I used to have a teacher that had this up instead of the maple leaf and we would pledge to it #I’ve even seen the original with my own eyes at the national museum. #if this was our flag i’d be soooo patriotic I’d have it hanging up on my door I’d wear it on all my shirts #ik we were trying to separate ourselves from Britain which i understand but also. bugs. #the beatles

Following up

On the earlier ask

About the subtle pride flags- how would you do? I really hope this makes sneae I’m a bit out of it sorry

I suppose it would depend somewhat! I guess I'd just make the flag less the centre of attention.

So for like a lot of the pride doodles the characters are holding big flags or part of their outfit is pride coloured or whatever. But I could make it more subtle by like, just having them wearing a badge or a patch on their shirt instead of the whole shirt being pride coloured. If that makes sense?

#I hope that's the sort of thing you meant Anon #and that this answers your question! #but yeah I'd make it less flashy so just them wearing something smaller instead of big flags or rainbow coloured shirts #like with Etho I'd put the flag on his shirt sleeve where the maple leaf patch usually is #less obvious than him holding a big flag or his vest being pride coloured like in the other doodles I've done of him #stuff like that I guess! #violetanswers

“Alternative suggestions for a National Emblem for Canada as submitted by T. E. Kaiser of Oshawa, former MP, are shown here. Both feature the maple leaf, one with the Canadian emblem in the field of the Red Ensign, and one with the leaf in the centre of the crosses of the Union deck.”

-from the North Bay Nugget. July 29, 1932. Page 7.
