DS9 episode: Family Business

Brunt, FCA!

DS9 Theme: favourite Kira moments

When Kira learnt not every Cardassian is a natural born brutal killer

Random Theme: Sinister

Deranged Nasat · October 23 2012, 12:50 PM

Episode: Gul Moogie asks how many lights you can see. Five, no?

DS9 Theme: It came out a bit blurry, but one of my favourite early Kira moments is her reaction to the death of Opaka, when we really get a sense of how important the things Opaka represents are to Kira, who due to the circumstances of her life hasn't been able to find them.

I guess I focused a little much on the "being watched by a very [...] powerful organization" rather than the sinister part, but oh well. No one can really argue that Google knows too much about us all.

Thor Damar · October 24 2012, 03:19 AM

I think it suits very well actually.

Google's "Don't be evil" motto doesn't really have a basis in its actual actions...they've been caught in shady stuff.

Will there still be time to enter tomorrow evening? I'm going to want to field entries in two of the three categories. I won't be doing the random because unfortunately I imagine I would offend a lot of people with what I'd enter, so I won't.

Nerys Ghemor · October 28 2012, 04:05 AM

OK, here are my two entries.

Ummm... yes...

Of course it will be...

l was pretty happy when the gov. or somesuch wanted the data Google had... and Google said no. Dunno what the deal was or what happened but some companies will give everyone's Pl to a mall cop. l personally don't believe that people have a right to my info just because l'm not doing anything wrong. Though l agree - there's a limit (l'd imagine) to the real world usefulness of the data they collect... so they should just not do it. Though Nerys - you're probably more up to date on that than me as the even l'm referring to was years ago. At the time it just made me happy. XD And FB is so terrible that for me it eclipses everything. LOL!

Edit - just caught that last line. l realize l'm super late for this contest but in the future l encourage you to express yourself. People have a right to do so and if people don't agree with you... what are they going to do? All caps you to death? You're not a particularly sinister person...

Nerys Ghemor · October 30 2012, 04:10 AM

Sorry--but I would rather not. You may prefer people to express themselves freely, but your mindset is not shared by a majority around here. Sad but true.

Spock/Uhura Fan · October 30 2012, 09:39 AM

^ Well, whatever it is, I hope you feel like sharing if it comes up in the future.

That's true... l sometimes forget in some places that l'm really on the lnternet as a whole. And some of those people are crazy!

l also respect your decision to not share some things too.
