What would you holodeck program be?

[Captain Rob]

^^ I like this one. But since it's the holodeck. I'd bring a batleth or katana sword and get creative.

Sid Meier's Pirates, essentially. Sail the tropic seas, dance with pretty girls, have slow-motion ship fights, have slow-motion sword-fights, and occasionally find buried treasure.

What I'd do probably cannot be printed here.

...so I'll just say that I'd win a superbowl as a star quarterback.

I could easily imagine being a holodeck addict. Real life is hard and often disappointing. In the holodeck you can have the perfect partner, free of problems, travel anywhere, live out your favorite books, tv shows and fantasies.
Of course, real life in the 24th century is supposed to be free of a lot of the social ills that make real life so crappy.
The place where my head is right now though, it sounds very appealing to be able to go into a holodeck and take a dream vacation with the guy I'm currently hopelessly crushing on. I think that spending some time in the madcap 1970s San Francisco of Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City would be amazing. I've always said that I would love to be able to live inside those books, they create a really fun quirky world full of people that you'd want to be friends with.

Beyond ST, my SFW* travel itinerary would be packed:
Middle-earth
Lankhmar
Earthsea
Darkover
Hyperborea
Arrakis
Trantor and Terminus.
Dresden's Chicago
Black Mesa
Tamriel

and every other fictional world that has fueled my imagination for the last half century...

An exact replica of my real life, only, I always have exact change.

Real life is hard and often disappointing.

I think that's probably the most profound and accurate thing ever said on this board.

 

[enterprisecvn65]

Since we're talking non sexual experiences. I guess I would have to recreate the James Bond series for the excitement, adventure, getting to kill people with cool weapons, dressing elegantly, driving awesome cars and never losing at gambling.

The fact he has sex with an endless string of gorgeous women as well would just be part of the job and something that I would reluctantly do "For England."

 

[Doom Shepherd]

I would create a miniature city and rampage through it as Godzilla.

I can't think of anything more enjoyably stress-relieving than that.

"I AM GODZILLA!!! YOU ARE JAPAN!!!"

manager/coach of a pro sports team in the championship sounds pretty cool.

Or I'd run cool simulations like "'86 Celtics vs. '96 Bulls" with holographic players.

The 86 Celtics would kick the 96 Bulls ass BTW.
