Apparently this was an ASDA/SFX exclusive. A Battlestar Galactica patch! I would have been less embarrassed buying porn.
Nothing shouts 'nerd' more than a patch. Patches are for the worst kind of science fiction fan. The sort that dress up as a Klingon*.
I heart SFX magazine usually but the patch and their about turn on Watchmen via their Blue Ray review is a poor show. Maybe I should have bought it in WHSmith but there's something about their insistence on offering me half price Galaxy or Toblerone, every time I visit, that I find vaguely sinister.
So the patch is sitting on my desk staring at me malevolently. I may have to burn it. How on earth does a magazine enter into an exclusive deal with a Supermarket? Where could this lead? What horrors await me next month in ASDA?
*I am slightly amused that 'Klingon' did not provoke a spell check from Google. I heart you Google. Also I have never dressed as a Klingon, just for reference.
