Jokes of Canon Violation because of XI?

[John Picard]

Its more aimed at the kind of people who will whine about Kirk being unable to drive on that gangster planet but can drive in this film.

Actually, he can't drive in this film. He went full bore through a gate and had to bail out of the car.

But in TOS he couldn't even turn it on, and didn't even know what a car was.

Maybe George Kirk did not have a car?

Maybe because someone drove it off a cliff?

How similar are the ignitions of a car from the 1920s to a Corvette?

Did Chicago Mobs of the Twenties have technical specs in it?

I believe the original title of that book was Wikipedia.

AHHHH, excellent point! The car did belong to his step-dad. Oh well, something for the fan wanky slobbering fanboys to get in knots over.

I wish Dr. Mc Coy would violate my canon.

I've been managing to resist saying that...

I'm all about taking one for the team.

Because if 99% are mocking and making fun of people who say that, I guess your trying to run them out of this Forum, as they must feel harassed, by seeing all these Avatars.

Yes.

Not really. New Timeline where Step-dad had car. Kirk probably road in it from time to time, saw how step-dad started car. Saw how S-D drove car. where in the original they were star hopping from place to place, colony to colony to keep up with dads assignments and never learned to drive a car.

Quantum Reality theory, same person, different life events, different skill sets emerge. YaY for watching SLIDERS.

My point is that the rabid fanboys are upset that in this movie, Kirk drives a car as a kid, but in a TOS episode, he can't figure it out.

The ultimate avatar would be Robau wearing a sombrero while violating a canon.

Make it so.

Easy enough to explain away. You see, after years of using the transporter, it caused a severe loss of his 'motor skills'.

Ever since the movie came out the amount of Avatars with "Canon Violation"
has increased exponentially, are you guys mocking the people who scream "Canon Violation". Or are you serious about it. Just curious.

I think many of them are awesome and very funny, so I like them.

I don't have any issue at all with them, I just want to hear from people that are using those types of Avatars and why. Why and when did you switch it to that?

It was really just a joke, started by one avatar image of a surprised-looking cat with the words "Canon Violation!!" on it. You've probably seen these. The original gag was that everyone would wear the same av and the repeating image would look odd to anyone reading a thread. Needless to say, people began to get a little more creative with it, leading to the result you now see. There was no malice intended and I'd hope that no one wearing one now has such intent.

However, since one "Canon Violation" thread has already been moved to another forum for not being about the movie, why don't I simply direct you to the Misc. thread currently running?

It's here: What's with all the 'Canon Violation' avatars?

Closing now.
