Have you ever screamed "MIIIINNNEEE" Tom Paris style?

The way he does when Kim is trying to the the pipe of him in "the chute"?

I once did, it was christmas and I got an xbox360, one of my cousins wanted to borrow one of the games, I didnt want to lend it to him so i did the "MIIINNNEE" thing.

 

How old are you?

 

Just turned 26 yesturday, its all a joke by the way. None of it is real.

 

My 3 year old does.

 

I've not screamed MIIIINE, but I've found PREEEEEEESSSZZZZH from Threshold can be useful sometimes...

 

"I am NOT a merry man" is our most used Trek quote. Also useful, "You will adapt" to anyone bitching about anything.

 

I find 'resistance is futile' works quite well... especially when I tell my partner I'm going out shopping...

 

Nice one.

 

Finally, someone else who has done this!!

but seriously no.

 

I went go karting and me and this other guy went after the same cart - I grabbed the steering wheel and yelled "MMMMIIIIIIINNNEEEE" centimetres from his face

 

We are all about the Borg commands around here:

"You will adapt." (Get over it.)
"Resistance is futile." (Stop arguing and do what I told you to do.)
"You MUST comply." (Same as previous, but kicked up a notch.)
"Persistence is futile." (Stolen from the EMH, but obviously based on the Borg -- means "stop nagging me.")
"Assist me." (Get over here and help me with the groceries/laundry/whatever.)
"Fun will now commence." (Go play.)
"Enact punishment protocol 9-Alpha." (Okay, I haven't used this one YET, but I think this thread has inspired me to try. )

My oldest kid loves the Borg and Seven of Nine and actually responds well to this nonsense. Should be fun when he gets his first loose tooth and we can threaten to perform a "radical dislocation."

I think I've used a Janeway quote or two in everyday life, as well, but the Borg are full of useful phrases.

Oh, and "I am NOT a merry man" is definitely another good one with many applications.

 

Heh, we actually use Resistance is Futile a lot around here. Never used any of the other ones (that i can remember), but i do love "You will adapt" and will be adding that one to my vocabulary!! Thanks!

 

The Borg quotes are superuseful in a house full of Trekkies. They know when I mean business!

 

I've used these as well!

 

No, but I have used the phrase "lollipops" to describe sickening sweet people ala B'lanna.

 

I joined the army went to Afghanistan, noticed a soldier step on a land mine I shouted:

"MMMIIIIIINNNNEEEE" - in true Tom Paris fashion.
