Once again, you are saying something that literally no one has said
Didn't he say that in the episode?
Oh for fuck's sake, you think we got it now? Please get over yourself, man. Because this makes you look super ridiculous for freaking out about an imagined group of people somehow telling you that you have to like Lower Decks. This is all happening in your head, don't you realize that? Literally no-one is saying that or giving off the “vibe” you're talking about. You don't like Lower Decks. Whoop-de-freakin-do, you are obviously allowed to do that. There's nothing wrong with that and no-one gives a flying fuck about it.

He never did. He was firmly embedded in the existing reality and never questioned that aspect. Only how he might mess up the future - the SHARED future.
I took that as him th
I took that as him thinking he was seeing things (hallucinating) and marveling that it at how real the hallucination seemed.
That's a reasonable in-story interpretation, yep.
Also, it was obviously a fourth-wall breaking joke about the obvious.
There were a lot of those in this episode. They were all delightful.
At 47 minutes long, this was the shortest SNW so far this season.
Not surprising; comedy pacing tends to move at a faster clip.
Other episodes have ranged from 52 minutes to just over an hour. One marvelous thing about streaming is the freedom they have to do this.

I am, I'm saying it right now. Lower Decks is a goddamn delight and, until Strange New Worlds came out, was my favourite Trek series. Period.
Yikes. it really isn't.
Well the username _does_ check out. Is this some kind of performance art? If so, you nailed it.
I haven't interacted with you in _years_. I guess it's comforting to know that some things _never_ change.
This episode was sublime. I was in stitches when the nacelle sucking space baby showed up in the animated credit sequence. I was _devastated_ by the turbolift scene between Boimler and Chapel and I was throughly delighted at Mariner and Ortegas trying their best to get Uhura to relax. But the final transporter scene where Number One is told that her ordeal in the courtroom would be quoted and put on a recruitment poster? I cried again, tears of joy.
This might be the best episode of Star Trek ever made. I watched it an hour ago and I'm still emotional. I think I'm going to watch it again, like right now.
10/10, no notes, do this again forever.
Do you see the problem here?
They got Boimler's uniform yoke wrong. On SNW, when he raises his arms the shoulder inserts still point down. On LD, the yoke curves smoothly upward on either side.
This is a significant continuity error, which could easily have been addressed with CG in post if they'd cared at all. Sloppy and lazy on their part.

Alcoholism: solves everything...
It was a waste for you I guess, but not for a majority of the people who watched the episode here, if you look at the poll ratings.
The show isn't made for just you, it's made for everyone.
I'm sorry I'm my own, unique, individual.
I'm beginning to understand why my jokes so often fall flat on this forum. What I find funny, most people here don't. Most people here find LD funny, but I don't. We might as well be on different dimensions humor-wise.

Depends on the joke.

What this OBVIOUSLY means is that SNW takes place in a DiFfeRenT uNivErSe because if they were on the OG TOS 1701 the shoulders would be right. Allow me to expand on this theory with the following 47 points:
