/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

The actual scene is very funny too.

SELA: Come in, gentlemen. Take a seat, please. (she continues working on a PADD) Excuse me, I'm just finishing up a speech. For you, Mister Spock. I rather enjoy writing. I don't get to do it often in this job.

DATA: Perhaps you would be happier in another job.

I always remembered TNG as being very stiff. But I've been rewatching several episodes with a friend lately, and I was surprised how many subtle jokes are in there.

They basically just gave two thirds of the cast Spock's sense of humor.

Worf roasting Keyleyr in their first episode is epic.

I had the same experience when I rewatched it a few years ago. I realized that I missed a lot of wink and nod jokes the first time around.

"And the one your mother came to reshpect in bed!"

Somehow this led to a vision of Q saying “Schuck it, Picard! Schuck it long, and schuck it hard.”

Alex Trebek: Let's just go with SPACE FLICKS for 800.

James Kirk: [buzzes in] Marta the Orion.

Alex Trebek: What?

James Kirk: Marta the Orion, Rayna Kapec, and Carol Marcus twice.

Alex Trebek: That's space FLICKS, Captain Kirk.

Positronic SLAM!!

Damn, Data. Why don't you just phaser her right in the face if you're going to say shit like that!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

He'll do something to her face 😏

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

Wasn't there an old joke about Spiner asking ladies if they wanted an unlimited Data plan?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Do you think anyone ever referred to her as Yasha Tar after the "incident"?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Did you know if you say:

Yasha Tar
Yasha Tar
Yasha Tar

into a mirror in the dark, a Tar monster will materialize in your bathroom?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

The only that that happened to me was a “tar monster” in my pants because my kid burst in unexpectedly.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

And the one your mother came to. Respect in bed.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

And Data claims not to understand humor lol

The real cause of "the burn"
