Inspired by gregorum’s post concerning issues with startrek.website, which is ironic as lemmy.world is a bit glitchy right now and isn’t letting me upload and had to use my alt here.

      If THIS is Star Trek, then it’s all Star Trek.

        Does that have to be Star Trek? Can we all acknowledge that Planet Scotland was just a fever dream?

          Along with planet Ireland, planet Africa, planet Capitalism? It’s a slippery slope.

            Yes, but none of those have a ghost sex candle.

                  I appreciated how incredibly rational he was. His first reaction was, “This is all so silly, I must clearly be dreaming. I shall now scream myself awake!”

                  He did this again in Distant Voices. “I’m being mind-raped to death by a Lethian? Oh, I don’t think so! Take my 125 year old tennis serve, asshole!”

                  And again, at the near-end of DS9 with Chief O’Brien in tow when they both cybermindfucked Sloan to get the cure for the Changeling virus. (Yeah, they totally did that, and Sisko and Ezri watched at least part of it).

                  I also appreciated the almost hilarious irony in that he was, in an almost Doctor Who twist of fate, wrong. No, Dr. Bashir, you are, in fact, trapped in a silly alien game, and must sing and dance your way out of it.

                  Doctor Who, indeed.

        TNG Sub Rosa is a remix of TOS Metamorphosis.

        Fight me.

          Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

          I agree with you, I just didn’t want you to go unfought for so long.
