/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.

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.

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Worf roasting Keyleyr in their first episode is epic.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

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!"

[–] rustydomino@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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

"You will now ansher the charge of being a grievoushly shavage rashe. Although not as shavage as I wash with your mother lasht night. Ho ho ho ho ho!"

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!!

[–] slingstone@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] swab148@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

He'll do something to her face 😏

[–] teft@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks 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?

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Emphasis on the "YUM" 😉

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And Data claims not to understand humor lol

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

If Tasha had a kid with Armus... Would it be a tar baby? 🤔

[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

The real cause of "the burn"
