   flookers, “star track” is what little children (like 5 and 6 yr olds) call star trek. and they get mercilessly teased by the older kids at school for it, too, just like you’re being teased now (and deservedly so). i’m honestly starting to think that you’re actually 100% awesomely fluent in english, and all the bad spelling and grammar is just a put-on. seriously… “star track” is way too over the top to be real!

   but in case you really ARE that linguistically helpless: it should be “House of a Star Trek Fan.” it’s true that articles (the/a/an) are usually not used in headlines, but you do need one in this case (that particular phrase is not idiomatic without it). and note that when articles ARE used, they aren’t capitalized unless they are the first word of the headline. the word “of” should not be capitalized either— as with articles, a preposition is never capitalized unless it’s the first word in the headline (or the last word, but you’re never supposed to end a sentence or phrase with a preposition if it’s at all avoidable).

   (and btw, i realize i’m an asshole for being nitpicky about someone else’s capitalization when i NEVER use proper capitalization myself, but *I* just make comments– flookers is the one authoring posts with big screaming red headlines, and consistently fucking them up!)

   furthermore, if you really want to make that headline look like real idiomatic english, you should drop the clumsy prepositional phrase altogether, and then go ahead and replace “Star Trek Fan” with the word “Trekkie” (they actually prefer to be called “Trekkers,” but fuck them). the headline “A Trekkie’s House” would be perfectly appropriate and would totally obscure the fact that your english is pathetic.

   (and before any trekkies start bitching about the trekkie/trekker thing, let me just remind everyone that the FBI has long noticed a strong, statistically significant correlation between being a hardcore star trek fan and being a child molester— in fact, the dude who owns that house is probably a registered sex offender— so trekkies, do yourselves a favor and stfu before you foolishly reveal to all of us who the pedos around here are. Edweirdo, i’m talking to you, bub.)

   also, flookers, even though your english does suck and everyone rags on you for it, take heart: i used to teach 9th grade english (14 yr olds) here in california, and your english is actually better than some of the native speakers i had in my classes. i’ve had students who would have misspelled “house” (believe it or not), and you got that one right! so you’re not TOTALLY hopeless!
