The Idiotic Questions Thread

Sisu said:
Is the Mars Defense Perimeter really only 3 torpedo like things Best of Both Worlds? If so, then it is a pretty weak defense. Why is it, despite at least 3 separate attempts to invade / destroy Earth (Vejur, the Whale Probe, and the nasty critters from Conspiracy) before the Borg attack, the Federation did nothing to build up Sol defenses? Was this because there is no money in the Federation, so no real defenses could be bought?
This is not an idiotic question. The Mars defense perimeter is an idiotic defense posture, meant to confuse idiots. The Pakled for an example. When they attack Earth, it'll be a slaughter.
 
In early Voyager episodes, Janeway enjoyed dressing up as woman employed as a housekeeper. Does this mean:

a) Janeway is a cross-dresser?
b) Janeway has a secret desire to mother her crew?
c) The fact that we never saw this bizarre and rather pointless storyline completed showed how inept it was?

d) Janeway had severe obsessive compulsive disorder that caused her to be a clean freak. Since there is no longer any more dust or dirt in the 24th century, this was a therapeutic aid during those days when her OCD was especially bad.
 
Tellarites look like pigs.
Kaitians look like cats.
There were those two races that looked like Snakes and Lions respectively in TNG (can't remember both of their names off hand).

So, why haven't we seen any that look like dogs? Do the Trek writers have something against dogs? Did Porthos give the dog race rabies and cause their death?
 
The Selay and the Anticans? I thought the Anticans looked like dogs, actually.... which means that the Star Trek universe is incredibly lioniphobic.

I blame it on that Cowardly Lion, he caused all self respecting Lions to spontaneously combust.
 
Which Enterprise?

NX-01 didn't have one; the crew spent the time plotting the death of Porthos and looking at Vulcan boobies.

NCC-1701 had two, one in each nacelle. Ha! You thought that they were matter / antimatter engines, didn't you? Originally they were, but bowling is more fun than collecting antimatter (but not by much).

In NCC-1701A, it was on deck 1, which was at the bottom of the ship (which had inexplicably got over 78 decks in height).

In NCC-1701D, they had evolved past the need to bowl.

In NCC-1701E, they kept a few Borg from First Contact and made a Borging Alley.

Oh, was the Borg Queen jealous of Seven's bust size?

No, the head sculpture of Seven was very small. The Borg Queen erected a life sized and movable statue of herself in every cube, and was happy she could be everywhere at once.
 
"We are the Mirror Borg. We will lower our shields and surrender to you. Our resistance is futile. Our biomechanical distinctiveness will be added to your own...."

didn't Denise Crosby play that?
 
Serious answer for a moment: If you seriously asking about Mirror Borg, we do actually see them in the TNG story in the first Mirror Universe book: Glass Empires :thumbsup:
 
1. Did Chakotay have any more tatoos on his body? Hidden under his uniform maybe...?

2. Did Harry Kim secretly hate Janeway for the no-promotion thing?

3. Odo can change into any form or shape. So just how big does Kira like it to be?
