/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I appreciate your concern, but I confess this story is an amalgam of several humorous events. My son did jump out of the shower over a cobweb one time, and my wife did pull down the shower curtain rod to use as a weapon another time (one of those tension rods that comes down easily). And my daughter did plead with us once not to harm a spider "because it might have babies," but she didn't want to live with the spider, so she suggested we move out and let the spider and her babies have our home.
It didn't all happen today, I just thought that was a clever lie to tie it all together.
Each of these events was met with as much amusement as fear. The kids also garden, and they aren't afraid of bugs, worms, or spiders in the wild. It's just when they get in the house that they panic, and I suspect it is as much about recreating funny memories as it is actual fear.
👍
I'm lucky in that for my wife it's worms/snakes, which we encounter in the house fairly infrequently. 🤣
Fair enough! Well told story, I got invested!
