i really like the original tos uniforms

dunno why, perhaps because i have no sense of 'too much' in fashion

and kirk's sash is hells of boss

but like in the enterprise mirror universe episode

you know how they go onto the tos bridge for the first time and it's like 'wow that still looks really cool'

i feel the same way about the uniforms

I like a lot of the uniforms, but my faves are, for better or worse, the movie ones(Nick Meyer's hard-on for Hornblower works for me) and the early DS9-VOY uniforms, probably because they combine the appealing 'shoulders' look of the TNG uniforms while being with an undershirt, which looks a bit more professional to me.

You know what I wish though; that instead of painting themselves into a corner with O'Brien, they'd just had him a commissioned officer all along. Or made other characters more obviously NCOs. Either or.

Also Keiko always came across as a bit of a bitch even when she wasn't possessed by demons.

If Starfleet wanted you to have a wife, they'd have issued you one.

Just like the US Navy. :ugeek:

Thing is when I was younger I didn't notice it as much, but with adult hindsight she comes across that way. I don't know.

9th grade year for Halloween I spent $100 of allowance money for a completely authentic Lt. Commander Data costume, and before school even started I got confronted in the hallway by the captain of the football team and a guy in the JV team. They slapped my books out my hands and were like, "WHAT'S UP, LORE?" and I was like, "No, I'm Mr. Data," and they were all, "SHUT UP, LORE," and I screamed, "I'M MR. DATA, AND I CAN'T FEEL PAIN." So that's when the JV guy said, "Should I give him a wedgie, Captain?" and the football captain said, "Make it so," which probably hurt the most, because Captain Picard would never advocate senseless violence like that. Thank Gaia Earth Mother that I didn't splurge the extra $50 on an emotions chip.

Please tell me this is satire.

Because I find it all to easy to believe this happened to some of the people on TEO.

Captain to crew.

Those of you who have served for long on this vessel have encountered alien life-forms. You know the greatest danger facing us is ourselves, an irrational fear of the unknown.

But there's no such thing as the unknown-- only things temporarily hidden, temporarily not understood.

In most cases we have found that intelligence capable of a civilization is capable of understanding peaceful gestures.

Surely a life-form advanced enough for space travel is advanced enough to eventually understand our motives.

All decks stand by. Captain out.

lol holy shit Nemesis almost killed Tom Hardy:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2009/ ... trek-actor
After supporting roles in the Steven Spielberg-produced mini-series Band of Brothers and Ridley Scott's film Black Hawk Down, Hardy hit the big time in 2002, when he played the villain in Star Trek: Nemesis. Unfortunately, the film flopped. Heralded as the Next Big Thing and then promptly stripped of that imprimatur, Hardy became an alcoholic and a crack addict. His addictions cost him his marriage.

"I went entirely off the rails and I'm lucky I didn't have some terrible accident or end up in prison or dead - because that's where I was going.

I almost didn't recognise him in Inception on account of him looking different and acting really well.
