October Art Challenge -- Klaus

[Klaus]

I may add some more characters if I think of them,, but here's the entry at the moment:

Not familiar with the quote, but nice one!

 

[Klaus]

ty! I first heard it as "the two most common elements in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity", but thanks to the power of the Interweb I determined that's the actual quote...

 

[Starscape]

Great!!

I was a little surprised to see Neelix on there. I know he's not well liked, but I've never really thought of him as stupid... then again, I rarely think of any of the Voyager characters.

Rom wasn't so much stupid as he was just ... someone, help me out here ...

 

[Klaus]

I actually went back and forth on Rom, and might still replace him... They certainly played him as stupid for laughs on a lot of occasions, but also he is obviously a technical whiz.... and one could argue that Leeta alone proves he's can't be THAT stupid!

...and same for Neelix, actually. I know that people who don't like the characters probably agree with their inclusion. I'm actually fairly agnostic about both of them as characters -- they're not my favorites but I don't dislike them particularly.

I'm pondering replacements...

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Yeah i was just kidding around. Rom could go either way, and so could Neelix. I think personally you should remove Rom. He is the Grand Nagus after all.

 

[Ziz]

There's a similar quote I heard that I use a lot, would also work for this, but I don't know who said it...

"The problem with the quest to make the world idiot-proof is that it challenges the universe to create better idiots."

Here's a 2nd take, replacing Rom and Neelix with a couple of gems from the admiralty: Jellico and Satie!

 

[B.J.]

Ah, Ronny Cox! The quintessential idiot/ass no matter what universe he's in!
