The next time your ship is full of tribbles, beam them off the ship! It doesn't matter how nice they are. Do what Scotty did. No need for troubles

That is to say (and I can say this about myself) control matters in public and it can hurt both the person who melts down and others too. 2/2

Maybe this'll sit wrong, but I've been catching up with Larry David's schtick and think the Elmo thing is funnier than before.

I feel even worse for Wil Wheaton, who has been hurt enough that some sorts of humor are intolerable.

That said, he blew up over a puppet and shouldn't've. 1/2

Why don't phasers fired into demateriizing people kill those people on arrival?

If you beamed a holographic character out of the holodeck and onto the bridge, would there be only a flash of light, then nothing?

I have questions!

What happens when a holographic character develops an aversion to light? And vampires! Does the "sun" hurt them? Do they immolate upon creation?

If you fall in love on the holodeck, profram your love with an impossible characteristic to remind yourself you love a hologram

Physical comedy on the holodeck often used a holoschtick.

I propose this show ST: Warp Core. As a result of warp travel damaging space, the crew of the Alcubierre are stuck in a huge region where they jump in time and space. Voyager plus Quantum Leap.

Picard was a Beverly crusher

Heh. At first, I typed "blood chicken". Is that slave labor chicken?

I was served bloody chicken today. The person who did it asked if I wanted it well done. Chicken doesn't work that way. Bloody chicken isn't safe to eat. 🤯

You'd never have to worry about the word getting out that you slept with Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer--he'd be gone in the morning🌞 If he wants to stay for breakfast, stake your claim!🧛‍♂️⚰️

The dogs are, indeed let out. Their tongues loll wildly, in anticipation, their eyes gleam! They encircle you in the night as golden angels with swords descend from a sky of torn open mouths

Once, I stubbed my toe out like a cigar

At night, your pet parrot leaves the cage and digs into your ear with a secret, numbing appendage from deep within to drain your mind of your vocabulary. This is why they can talk. This is why you forgot the reason you squawked into the room

Friends! Romans! Writer-folk! The word "important" has been around since 1500. The middle "t" has been also. "Imporant" is no word! Neither is "import-ent". Once, I heard "emporen"! Do your part to stop this! Tell people.

I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,

And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker,

And in short, I was afraid.

V'Ger should get an episode of Trek to let us know what's up with it.
