Based on brian's testimony, I would like to change my vote to Icheb for this poll (Previously it was Alexander, based on the poorly written character). Glad I never met him or I'd have told him EXACTLY what I thought of his attitude.
From now on he will only be referred to as Borg Boy by me as well. I don't smoke, but have seen George plead with someone not to smoke anymore. I've done the same myself and I am sure it was well meant for the punk's health. :vulcan:
 
Wes was annoying but cute, Jake was hot and not annoying, he had really good stories with the exception of that one where the woman was suckin the writer energy out of his brain.

Naomi was the most irritating, she never really said anything worth mentioning, she was just ...in the way.
 
It sounds band-wagony, but Wesley for sure. I couldn't stand that this little geeky boy wonder was saving the ship while trained, educated, and competent Star Fleet officers could do nothing. I feel sorry for all the Academy-graduates who worked hard to earn their ranks and didn't get to prove themselves flying the ship because Wesley was up there doing it. Urgh.
 
I never found any of the kids annoying except for maybe Mezoti. But anyway out of the kids on this list I vote for Jake, he was a bit of a smart ass just like his dad.
 
Icheb. Seriously, Borg babies?!?!

Borg babies have been around since the Borg were introduced in Q Who.

As a plot device. Icheb and company gave Voyager more of a Saturday morning cartoon spin off feel than it had already. I was waiting for the crossover with Muppet Babies.
True, I can understand Icheb though, but the other Borg kids either should have been killed in the first episode of their appearance or leave the ship earlier because there really wasn't any use for them. Since I've watched mostly Voyager, I'll vote on Icheb because he seems to go the route of Wesley and the actor isn't any better. However, I can't say anything for Wesley because I haven't seen TNG as much.

Wes was annoying but cute, Jake was hot and not annoying, he had really good stories with the exception of that one where the woman was suckin the writer energy out of his brain.
Agreed. :techman:...and Spike needs to show more DS9!
 
Looks like Jake put on a little weight, too. I recall Cirroc Lofton was skinny as a rail. I always liked his character, particularly when they decided to make him a writer and not follow in his father's Starfleet footsteps. Then Sisko kind of got a surrogate Starfleet son in the form of Nog, another unexpected development. I esp. liked the ep that was a takeoff on The Red Badge of Courage, where he flees the scene of a battle with the Dominion, and is guilty about it. -- RR
 
Wesley by far. Ever since "Encounter at Farpoint" he annoyed the hell out of me.
 
EDIT: New poll is up, check it out here!

Since there wasn't really any annoying kids in TOS (that I recall), this'll just be for TNG, DS9, and VOY. Who is the most annoying?

Personally I'm going with Naomi. Wesley is a close contender, granted, but I really think it was more along the lines of what they did with his character more than the character himself. He gets points for being angsty though. Naomi OTOH, had this indescribable out-of-placeness. Every time they used her character, it always seemed forced to me. Plus she was really chipper, which was kind of off-beat with a lot of the episodes she was in.
I agree. Naomi always gave me the heebie-jeebies. That time she badgered Seven about Borg kids, even though it was the Borg Queen speaking through her, I thought the creepiest thing about it was that kid!
 
Here are a couple of pics I snapped of Cirroc Lofton at the Orlando Vulkon in July. (That's Aron "Nog" Eisenberg with him in the first pic.)

Are the two of them to scale there???:lol:

Poor Aron does not seem to reach Loftons navel! He didn't look that short on the show


I was thinking at least Naomi had an excuse for the captains assistant thing, she was a child.
Wes was a teenager, he should have been getting into trouble, scoring chicks his mother didn't approve of, drinking, staying out after hours etc
When they got the academy career going he wasn't annoying anymore tho.
 
I know! Cirroc is only about one stride closer to the camera, though. I'll see if I can dig up a pic where the comparison isn't confounded by camera angle.
