Funniest moments in Star Trek?

DS9's "The Ascent" has so many hilarious exchanges between Quark and Odo.

Quark: You're doing it again.
Odo: Doing what?
Quark: Smacking your lips.
Odo: No, I'm not.
Quark: There, don't you hear that?
Odo: The only thing I've heard for the past four days is you complaining.
Quark: This whole runabout is alive with annoying little noises.

---

Quark: You remember back there when I told you I hated you and you told me you hated me?
Odo: Vividly.
Quark: I just wanted you to know, I meant every word of it.
Odo: So did I.
 
From "Rocks and Shoals"


"Oh no!"
"What?"
"I don't believe it!"
"What?"
"I tore my pants!"
"You... You tore your pants?"
"Yeah, I tore my pants. I guess... I guess I'm really in trouble now!"

Lots of laughter..

Intentionally Funny: Kirk and Scott's discussion in The Trouble With Tribbles.

Unintentionally Funny: Tasha's anti-drug speech in Symbiosis.
 
Trek has never done "funny" very well to my satisfaction. It does "amusing" commendably though.

If I had to pick one I'd go with Worf's "Find him and kill him!" from Take Me Out To The Holosuite. But there's plenty others.

However, Trek does unintentionally hilarious brilliantly. The all-time winner for that one is from TMP:

KIRK: I need you, Bones... badly! :lol:
 
I justed watched TNG's "Starship Mine", and Data's exercising the "useless smalltalk" subroutine down on the planet is one of the funniest moments... :D
 
The infirmary scene between Bashir and Garak in Way of the Warrior:

"They broke seven of your transverse ribs and fractured your clavicle!"
"Ah, but I got off several cutting remarks which no doubt did serious damage to their egos."
 
ds9: dogs of war, where they dramatically get the defiant back and bashir mentions the carpet.

and i posted this in the ENT forum, but if shran called humans "pinkskin" to archer...what would happen if he was talking to travis?

now, that would be the funniest moment in trek. :)
 
I hate to do this, but since that youtube link basically has the whole episode up there, I have to remove it. Paramount wouldn't like it if we enabled people to watch Star Trek through illegal/unethical means.
 
re: shran, travis and pinkskins...

Like all Travis's scenes it was cut for time so they could fit in more shots of T'Pol in her pyjamas.
