What is your personal head canon?

Non sequiter. People who look down on Trekkies have been doing it since 1966, and I just used the word mundane here for the first time as a descriptive of them among fellow Trekkies.



*Sigh* Just using it as a descriptive for the sake of this conversation. Didn't imagine for a second it would erupt into a controversy.

Can I expect a congressional hearing on "mundanaphobia" in sci fi fandom next?

I assumed/hoped “mundanes” was a reference to Abed from Community using it when discussing how he processes the Dreamatorium for the other characters

I... don't know what that is, I only saw a little bit of Community :lol:. as Frostscape said, I was using it the way telepaths in Bab 5 refer to non-telepaths. Though I bet Abed was also referencing B5.
I have a friend who married someone who's not only not a sci fi fan, but openly ridicules the things we like. Over the years he became more and more miserable. Now he's just sort of serving out the time until the kids to move out (they're 20!). He says "serves me right for marrying a mundane."

That's a tragedy that he views that as the only option.

Now that you say it - and considering he is an avid sci-fi (especially Farscape) fan it would make sense that he is a B5 fan
 
This video has me convinced the Enterprise-B wasn't decommissioned, but it was renamed to the Lakota.

They're both the only modified Excelsiors ever seen in Star Trek and the Enterprise-B's fate was never revealed. The Excelsior seemed to have staying power. So when they wanted to make an Ambassador Class Enterprise-C, they might've thought there was nothing wrong with the B, so they refit the interior and renamed it. They don't get rid of a perfectly good ship and they have another Enterprise that's the most advanced ship in the fleet.

-The Mycelial Network wasn't discovered until much later in the timeline. To have this whole galaxy-spanning ecosystem that's been known of since the mid-23rd century but never mentioned in any other series is crazy.
-Get rid of most of the planets that are just snapshots of times and places in Earth's history. The only Space Nazis you need are the Cardies.

Those are good ones. :techman:
 
The movie Forbidden Planet fits into the history of Starfleet and the Federation. Somehow. I don't know how, exactly. But it does. :shrug:

She was the daughter of a Romulan general. He probably pulled some strings.
This Romulan General must have risen high in the Empire (Senator?) and as he got older (too old?), he put her in charge of many endeavors. Conquering and taking a trophy wife from your biggest enemy (the Federation) was an extremely important status symbol. Her father knew his heir, Sela, was loyal to him and indoctrinated into the Empire especially after she turned in her own mother, Tasha, which got her executed. :rommie:
