Finally, a philosophy for the wisecracking smartasses and class clowns of the world 😎

ENT 4x23 Archer vs Shran fight 👌

Gul Dukat

Maybe you drew too fast shot yourself in the foot?

Gul Dukat is arguably the most wellformed villain in ST canon. He is a delusional maniac pursuing a twisted vision of greatness. He even works alongside our heroes for a time!

Can I offer you an Armus instead?

I have 0 desire to ever rewatch a single episode

If there’s one thing I’d like to peek behind the curtain to see, it’s the streaming metrics for each trek.

My gut instinct is that almost nobody wants to rewatch it unless it is their own favorite trek. I know I don’t.

I can’t understand why we get Mark Antony instead of Marcus Antonius or something.

Were historians like “Nah fuck this guy, Ima give him a grimy anglicized name lol”

Scifi writers: the setting is sleek and futuristic

Scifi set designers:

He is on a mission to reach Gazpacho IV

I dunno, haven’t played it in ages. Wizards of the Coast has developed the mierdas touch 🤮

I want more filler episodes the same way Magic The Gathering wants bad cards:

The solution to the aforementioned problem leads to the second reason “bad” cards exist. Different cards have different functions and appeal to different players.

We make some cards for the multi-player crowd. We make cards for the flavor crowd. We make cards for the silly crowd. We make the big creatures and spells for "Timmy." We make the combo cards for "Johnny." We take each different group of Magic players and throw some cards their way.

The problem is players tend to define “bad cards” as cards that they personally see no reason to play. But certain cards aren’t meant for them in the first place.

Watching the two on the left go from hardnosed atheist commandos to saying “Praise Sol” with conviction, what a wild fucking trip of a show.

Buffer time! It’s the episode I feel where LD comes into its own.

TIL the episode is actually called Temporal Edict and “Buffer Time” is a lower decks board game they made based on the episode.

And it’s not some “resting bitch font” situation, where a completely innocuous statement was twisted beyond recognition

resting bitch font, I’m dyin 🤣

My reflexive is-ENT-a-joke-to-you response is tempered by realizing you have also forgotten Sisko and Burnhan in addition to Archer.

This is some properly calibrated gourmet ragebait 👌

Pike, after every torpedo, rift, or anomaly:

Yeoman, go pick up all my tchotchkes and bricabrac and restage my quarters.

Ah shit here I go again too 🤣

Every time

This grinds my gears too.

Why does Pike have open flames and a cocktail lounge while Uhura sleeps in a spacecoffin bunk.

Maybe it’s only the plebs; doesn’t La’an have a stufio apartment for her quarters?

If “ish bin ein Berliner” translates as “I am a jelly donut” (favorite anecdote of mein lehrer)

Then does “ich bin ein amerikaner” translate as “I am a loaf of sliced bread”?

Edit: thanks fam 🤙

Amerikaner is a cookie but not a chocolate chip cookie, never ever would have guessed 🤣

The writers: I have an idea…

The fans: What do you think this is? HAMLET? GONE WITH THE WIND? RUGGLES OF RED GAP? It's a goddamn B picture! Big men in tights! You know the drill

That feeling when someone makes a really good point and makes me wonder if S3 was not as good as I thought it was.
