FFS if you are curse someone make sure it is either untreatable or so fast acting it is effectively untreatable before appendages had already came off.
 
To distract from the latest nu-Trek abomination:

Her sense of humor was hilarious at cons. Saw her at a con when i was a kid and being a naive little kid i asked her if she liked doing movies or tv better. Her response "Your too young to have seen the movies I've done." Later found out she was making a porn joke...to a tween...

All the TNG cast has been great anytime I've seen them at cons, but Marina Sirtis is far and away the most hilarious. One year at Dragon Con, the panels were running behind schedule, so she was out in the crowd barking at all the nerds to hurry up and get in so the panel could start, helping the staff shepherd everyone to their seats. Great way to kick off a panel, I'll say that much.

Shatner is also great at cons too, it's crazy how he's still got it all these years later. First year I went to Dragon Con was the first year Shatner and Nimoy were both there (in my naivete, I didn't go to any of their panels, which remains a regret of mine), and as it happens, this little ditty came out just before the con, so it was pretty much played at least once before every panel:
I still get nostalgic anytime I listen to it.

Seems like they are gonna bring in Kirk and turn him bisexual in a desperate attempt to get "Strange New Worlds" picked up. (if Midnights Edge is to be believed)

What's the deal with "Strange New Worlds" anyway?
They made STD and it was a failure, cause the story sucks, the characters suck, it doesn't fit into the established lore at all and only idiots enjoyed it. Media attacked any criticism as originating from toxic manchildren, so they lose a lot of dedicated fans. As their next step, they announce they'll make STP, and it was a failure, cause the story sucks, the characters suck, it doesn't fit into the established lore at all and only idiots enjoyed it. As added bonus, they admit that they made the entire show just to shit on Picard and all ideals that TNG embodied.

So, now they want to win over fans with yet another product and it might feature a retread of Kirk or whatever? What is wrong with these people? I want to understand this. I need to understand this. How can people be this fucking dumb?
They fail, piss off a shitton of people in the process and then double down, triple down and quadruple down and wonder why they fail over and over again, but anytime they get back from their last failure and ask for another chance, they turn around and rub shit all over the face of the fandom, giggling gleefully about how they got them. Until they see that their audience, yet again, dwindled away, and they ask for yet another chance.

How could anyone still have hope for the franchise?

A longshot, but I do sometimes wonder if CBS et al float these ideas, then see how the fandom reacts and decides whether to go with them or not.

That would require them to give a fuck what people think before they shit out a product that turns out to be something nobody wanted.
 
In these dark and trying times, let me offer this thread a meme from Random Pics and Gifs that I thought was funny and is more in character for a Star Trek race than anything in STD.

I liked to imagine that after DS9 he went on to be some some manner of talk radio host like how Savage had BANNED IN BRITAIN but BANNED ON VULCAN or something.

Ferengi are money jews
Bajorans are prosecuted holocaust jews

They had to seperate them into different species or the reference would have been too obvious.

So wouldn't that make humans the influence Jews? Humans dominate the Federation, after all, which is the big globalist universal power. It's a big talking point for the Klingons in The Undiscovered Country.

Humans don't dominate the Federation, they dominate Starfleet- In essence, the 'Navy' of the Federation. The Federation is the bureaucrat part which dominated by those with the most experience which will always be races with longer lifespans such as Vulcans.
 
C'mon jerkwads, we're going to reach peak autism here if we argue much more about who are the...

Besides ST: Picard has now established that robots are the real jews.

And the Cardassians were a piss poor NOT!Nazi or even Roman knockoffs going by how few Bajorans were killed during the Occupation. Bajorans were REEING just because someone else had planted their flag on their sacred soil and locals couldn't do shit to stop it. FFS the Bajorans should be thanking their gods it wasn't the Klingons, Romulans or other galactic powers who didn't conquered them as they would have made the Bajoran species extinct or near extinct due to being extremely sore losers.

Cardassians were mostly based on Russians and various eastern European autocracies. Their literature and general attitudes are lifted straight from Russia, their love of the state's authority and secret police are straight from the Soviet Union or East Germany, and Franz Kafka's works are a pretty clear influence on their bureaucracy.

Or the pure fascist state realized.

And I mean that in the actual, real sense of what fascism was, not the cartoon nazis everybody thinks of.
