What does 'nu' mean?

"This is TimelineBob. Timeline Bob has bitch tits."

Some of you are putting way, way too much time into thinking this out. Of all the ridiculous minutiae to obsess over.... i mean for crying out loud! I'd suggest telling you guys to all go out and get laid or something, but then I remember the crowd I'm talking to.

Lighten the fuck up.
 
Refracted Universe. ;)


Only Star Trek fans could get so heated about what to call the damn thing. Call it whatever the hell you want, as long as other people know what you're talking about.
So far, I'm only seeing one or two people getting worked up over it. I'm pretty sure most people don't really care one way or the other.

QFT :)
I particularly like how most of the thread is just a bit of fun, and the only ones who are swearing and getting worked up are the ones who are basically telling people to stop being nerds. :rommie:
 
Original Trek fans objected to "TOS" for ages (I was there, go ahead and argue the point).

No argument from me. I was there too. I thought STC and STA were well-established. Suddenly allegiances shifted, and it was TOS and TAS. And now even CBS and Pocket Books use "The Original Series" in their marketing.

Physician, heal thyself. This is a complete overreaction to what's being discussed here. There's some nitpicking at worst, no drama.

So much anger. All of it, useless.

Huh? Who's "heated?" This is just an idle exercise in speculation and curiosity. It's an intellectual musing, not an emotional issue.


Sometimes, Christopher, the best way to get an idea is to stop thinking about it...

But this is a discussion board. I was trying to generate a topic for discussion.


Let it rest for a while and maybe a nice acronym might pop up in your head when you least expect it...

Again, why are people assuming I'm looking for an acronym? I'm looking for an actual name. The shorthand would be easy enough to derive afterward, and is thus an incidental concern.
 
How about "Star Trek Fractured Universe"?

I think STFU has a nice ring to it. ;)
 
Why does Star Trek have such a stigma? :devil:

Because of people like you...

Oh for goodness sake. What is that supposed to mean? What behaviour of mine has caused Star Trek to have a stigma?

Members have spent over 100 posts debating the meaning of the term "nu", but it's my fault? Did you not see the grinning devil, indicating that I was joking? Fans with a sense of humour are the reason Star Trek has a stigma?
