While playing Snakes and Ladders with Worf, Geordi studied the cube-shaped game piece closely. "This one has the second officer's face on it. And it's very well made."

"Yes," the Klingon replied. "It is a good Data die!"

What does the Enterprise's D's captain drink? Picardi on ice.

What do you call the first officer on a motorcycle? A Riker Biker

What do you say to the second officer as the sun rises? It's a new Day-ta.

What does the doctor drink? Orange Crusher.

What happens when the counselor slips on a banana peel? The fall of Troi.

Did you know there's a French film about blacksmithing, starring the engineer? It's called "La Forge"

I just shared these with my wife. They were funny.

We both approve. :techman::techman::lol::lol:
 
What did Data say to his cat when trying to get it to go in its bed after it was constantly distracting him when he was trying to work?


"Get on your spot."

This one needs some context for most of us Yanks. It could be misconstrued as some form of racism.

Cool info, thanks! I'd no clue, despite being able to rattle off more British shows than American ones*... I thought you were trying to mimic Scotty, as early TNG's merry go round of chief engineers even had one who was the most inane Scotty clone imaginable...



* To name just a few, including not-so-esoteric entries:

  1. Are You Being Served?
  2. Keeping up Appearances
  3. Chef!
  4. Waiting for God
  5. The Vicar of Dibley
  6. Absolutely Fabulous
  7. The Prisoner
  8. Doctor Who
  9. Blake's 7
  10. Chef!
  11. Star Cops
  12. The Omega Factor (it's as much underrated as it is dated, but it's all good!)
  13. Red Dwarf
  14. Monty Python's Flying Circus
  15. The Benny Hill Show (but in fairness, this one hasn't aged the best...)
  16. The Goodies
  17. Chef!
  18. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
  19. Space: 1999
  20. Crime Traveler
  21. Sapphire & Steel
  22. Quatermass
  23. The Tripods
  24. Chef!
  25. The Lenny Henry Show
  26. Alexei Sayle's Stuff
  27. Day of the Triffids
etc.

Now guess which show I'd seen the most recently and simply can't get enough of? (Hint, a young Jo Martin guests in a couple episodes and is a delight to watch...)

Granted, correlation and causation and cauliflower prevailing, it's not like many of those shows ever deviated from geographic locale, accents (apart from RP), and so on... so in the end it's less than the sum of its parts. Also, "Chef!" is bloody fantastic, especially by 1993's standards...

And, nope, no Googley action there - I have these on DVD or an eidetic memory... :D

I don't know if you're aware of this, but you listed 'Chef!' four times.
 
Why do they have to put up DEER CROSSING warning signs?

Because deer don't have horns.
