Line 8:
Hawking was also quite famous for his sense of humor. He appeared several times on ''[[The Simpsons]]'', ''[[Futurama]]'' and ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'' [[As Himself]], each time bordering on the line of [[Adam Westing]]. [[Expy|Expies]] of him have appeared in form (''[[Family Guy]]'') and in [[Charlie and the Chocolate Parody]] form (''[[Dexter's Laboratory]]''). He appeared as a character, but not on camera (perhaps he couldn't make the shoot fit his schedule, or just didn't like the show), in an episode of ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]''. Finally, he was the only person to appear in any ''[[Star Trek]]'' series [[As Himself]] (obviously, as a holodeck recreation of himself). Hawking was also known to be a fan of ''[[Red Dwarf]]''.
Hawking was at one point offered a [[Knight Fever|knighthood]], but turned it down in protest of the state of science education in Britain. He was named a Commander of the Order of the British Empire and a Companion of the Order of the Companions of Honour, but neither of those qualify one as a knight.
For a professional physicist, he wrote a notably large number of popular books - [[w:Stephen Hawking#Publications|Wikipedia has a list]].
[[Epic Rap Battles of History|He's got 12 inch rims on his chair, that's how he rolls, y'all.]] No, he actually ''did''. You thought they were joking?
