Jesus wept. Good lord. Are you on drugs?
Are you here to discuss things or just argue and insult. This is very close to trolling.
What was that about post, not poster?
And here you are again.
Many thanks!
I LOVE THIS!!!!
I've never actually seen 'beating a dead horse' shown literally in a post before. How did you do that?
(I would certainly use it in several instances.)
However, I cannot take credit for them, sadly. I've lurked on hundreds of BBS's for the past 2.5 decades and each one had its own collection of animated emoji's in the thread posting area, just like this one. Knowing how finite all sites are in Teh Interwebz, when I find one (or more) that appeals to me, I download them all and archive them on my Imgur account for their inevitable later use. I also have a vast collection of animated & static memes. In this particular thread's context with a certain set of posts, for example, this one comes to mind:
When a picture is worth a thousand words, an animated meme is worth a thousand words times the number of frames in the animation. It allows me to speak hundreds of thousands of words in a single post without hitting the character count ceiling!
Cortez, I'm sorry to break this to you, but Jeri Ryan --- barring a literal miracle --- will have been dead for centuries by the time Shaw is in command of the Titan.
It’s a shame that Spock was executed for mutiny in The Menagerie and Picards Starfleet career ended so early for stealing a shuttle on the Stargazer.
Remember how Worf was subjected to a court martial for disobeying orders and murdering Duras, and then was arrested for desertion when he went to fight in the Klingon civil war?
man TNG was a hardass about actions having consequences.
If only this new show showed the spine of consistent consequences TNG did

Caught up in a few days and I have mixed feelings though it feels more Star Trek than Picard s1 & s2 + seeing the cast together is heart-warming - Especially as i'm in the middle of a TNG rewatch. Assuming this isn't a DS9 story being told with TNG characters, i'm going this is The Borg.
Now while everything couldn't be further from the tactics of the Borg, I've noticed hints along the way...
* Shaw being a character with PTSD from Wolf 359
* Vadic tractor beam was Borg esq.
* Voices being whispered like the collective we know.
* The voice sounding like a Borg Queen.
* Vadic telling Seven - It's fitting you're here.
* Even the Virus - we assume there on about the Changeling one but Vadic saying the cure was taken not given. The Borg Queen took the pathogen and I guess eventually the cure from Admiral Janeway that allowed the Borg to adapt but not after they were decimated.
* The fact we saw both USS Voyager and got a cameo from a Voyager character in Tuvok.
However - Why would the Borg use changelings? Why red eyes when Borg colour is green? and is this something to do with the end of season 2 and the cataclysm that nearly destroyed the Alpha Quadrant but was prevented by the other Borg collective.
Also surely the Borg should be more p*ssed at Janeway, not Picard.

My personal favorite was when Jadzia Dax was forced to separate from the Dax symbiote as punishment for murdering the Albino. Ezri Dax was a much better replacement and settled in with the crew after that for the rest of Season 2.
I want a series of entirely federation acquisitions committees arguing about starship design for 5 seasons and absolute savage attention to any and all inconsistenciesHad Seven blown the turbolift with Vadic and Shaw in it, she would've been court martialed for killing her Captain!
My God, the man does not think!
Man, they're going all in on the red vines/neurons/lattice things. I kinda hope the reveal is as "Ah, okay" as rumor has it, because I do not want to have to drink from the hose of new lore with 120 minutes left in the show.
After I am done running for LFL presidency my next petition will be a STAR TREK: J*A*G series with those consequences. It will be glorious!
To be fair, she was portrayed as not much better... conferring with a former Dax host who was a psychotic serial killer through a dubious ritual that made it impossible to verify whether she was of sound mind and thus would've rendered any information she collected inadmissible as evidence in a proper criminal investigation, best exemplified that under his influence, she extralegally murdered a Vulcan suspect instead of reporting him to the proper authorities. She deserved the forced separation and being sent to a prison colony for vigilante justice all the same.
Yeah, but that was in Season 7 and everyone knows that the 7th season doesn't count*
*except when it totally does.
You had the right idea here.
Too bad you didn't keep to your word. Do something like this again and you'll get a warning for flaming.
I see nothing actionable in the post you were responding to.
Knock this shit off.
I'm not normally one to advocate the Ignore feature, but I think several posters here maybe need to use it if they're going to get so wound up about one poster posting negative opinions, which is perfectly valid and not actionable trolling.
I think it would be really stupid for a destroyed ship to show up.
But I suppose no worse than the constant resurrection of Data
well, let's forget for a moment that the shrike should have had its shields up. And these don't look like quantum torpedoes, just wallmart torpedoes. Or is it torpedos. So how would I know how many? it just seems like shrike was supposed to be a battleship they were scared poopless of but once it was convenient, bangety bam, they are gone. I mean after Riker smacked that baby with a rock, did he not realize he could have just hung around and destroyed them then and there. Now Commander Seven said give em borg hell and it didn't even look like they fired phasers. Sigh, I suppose if there was more money in the budget and they showed the shrike getting a lightening bug blood bath from phasers and another spread of torps then i would have been able to believe it. that is all. Oh and I stand by the JJ hate LOL

No one said it contradicts anything.
No one said they switched in the 80s.
A version of it was very popular on the Star Trek Movie Forum back then
