/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.

This is a TOP tier joke and I think it is a crime it was never made on the show.

Nana Visitor is the name of the actress who plays Kira.

To be fair, it definitely does NOT sound like it would be a person's name :)

Sure, but I'm currently watching DS9 and I think I have wondered about her unusual name during credits...

Sisko: I enjoy birds and running water.

Kira: So you're going to pay a visit to some aviary brooks?

He’s a dad, too, even though he pretends he isn’t.

Now I'm just hoping someone had cracked that joke to her in real life at some point.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 2 points 3 months ago

It doesn't work though, because she pronounces her name "na-NAH"

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 3 months ago

It's nice to see people with the same kind of humor my siblings and I have watching Star Trek. Damn near every time her name pops up in the credits, I make some stupid joke like this lol
