    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    You literally had to go back to the 60's to prove your point. This invalidates your point. I never said that "no one has ever worn glasses on Star Trek". I said "People don't wear glasses on Star Trek"... and they DON'T. They also don't sport cochlear implants, or braces. Because it is the...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    The fact that you have to dig through ancient Trek from the before-fore times just proves my point. People don't wear glasses on Star Trek, because it is the future. People with pointed ears are the norm, not people wearing glasses. I don't believe for one second that when you saw the fat...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Straight men who prefer not to have their comedy television interrupted by the superfluous appearance of a dick, one episode after another? Yeah, that's most of us. Jeezus... what kind of rough trade are YOU hanging out with? You don't know nuthin' about me, Cara Mia.

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Well honey, SOMEONE is being insulted in that scene. If it isn't the fans, then it must be technical support guys! Yeah yeah yeah. Tell it to the judge. We all know who the fat nerd in glasses symbolizes. It's amazing that they didn't have him eating a burrito. Your complaint is with the...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Well, it is also unmistakable that he LOOKS like Comic Book Guy. And what do you think that is about?

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    It ain't about the strength, mac. it's about NuTrek's conspicuous nut-cutting, which apparently no amount of video evidence can convince you of. Go on feeling graced, though.

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Clearly stopped reading one sentence too soon. (Also, a bit of an irony deficiency.)

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Well, tune in to Righteous Gemstones and you'll be in penis paradise, one episode after another. (And almost no female skin whatsoever to balance it!)

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Clever! Hey, the 1990's called and they'd like your "Any criticism of modern culture must mean that the critic is a closeted Archie Bunker" putdown back. (Hold on... I've still got the 90's on the phone). The 1990's would also like your key to their apartment back. Here's the newer reality...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    It is not all the time, nor written in 20 foot tall letters, nor against the main cast, but it is there and it is a symptom of the whole sloppily engineered "woman empowerment" agenda that permeates all NuTreks and shows up again and again. Putting aside the comedy nature of Lower Decks, here's...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Uh, it's not like Seven's boobs were falling out of her spandex jumper. But the good news for you is that today, you can barely find a show that doesn't have gay romance in it, or (in the case of the Righteous Gemstones, of all shows, and probably many other programs) all the floppy penises you...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Well... that just confirms what i have been saying the whole time. So that's a point to me then, isn't it?

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    I'm not likely to convince you about this, but it seems not to have occurred to you that if what they were really trying to do is create a moment that was merely "Starbase Dorks" versus "Enterprise Expertise", and they didn't want any Bernie Bros like me crying foul, that they could have simply...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Get your ass to Hollywood, baby. Screw the strike: Teach me how its done.

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    Hold on... let me take a sip of coffee so I can do a proper spit take. ... Okay, done. (You owe me a new monitor.) Put down the Robin DiAngelo for a moment: How is it "equal" to dump on men in such an obvious way instead of just treating all the characters as... y'know, equals? Sort of like they...

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    You know what? If it happened once in the scene, you might get a pass. It happened twice. And the fact that it was all men vs. all women was as on the nose as if it were all blacks versus all whites.

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    This is REALLY a stretch. You know as well as I do that this was a "mansplaining" scene. It was awkward and out of place... as much as the fat nerd with glasses at Ortegas' station was. I mean, Jesus Christ....

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    I think SNW thinks it is clever enough for this to have been interpreted that way.
  19. Death Ray

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    I want you to imagine the exact same scene, exactly the same dialogue and smirks and eyerolls...everything, and then flip the sexes. How does that scene read to you then?

    What's your unpopular opinions on SNW?

    What I am saying is far simpler. I am saying that SNW is a hen party, and that it is filled with little digs at men like the one in the video I have been referring to, and that ultimately, this is a pretty big turn off to male viewers. Take it or leave it.
