worf's mok'bara class probably did more for the enterprise crew's mental health than troi did

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago

My struggle... Is heroic 😮

I never want to be mentally healthy now

[-] Silentiea@lemm.ee 31 points 1 year ago

Then you have already lost, and are without honor.

I don't need to fight the demons if I can become them! I'll show you all!

[-] GoTeamBoobies@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Even if you succeed, your people will reject you. You're a demon, a monster who's rage only increased as she slaughtered millions of foes and innocents a like, all for the name of perfection

[-] melmi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 1 year ago

Counterpoint, defeating a seemingly undefeatable enemy is even more heroic.

Also, a fight that you are not trying to win is not an honorable fight.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Counterpoint, my self care regimen involves regular screaming rants that culminate in spirited slogans like "I'll show you all"

If nobody got me

Klingon Warrior: Growing crops isn't a battle!

Klingon Farmer: I thought that once, but then the tribbles arrived.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 1 year ago

I am just infatuated with the lawyer Klingon from an episode of DS9. And there is also art and music in Klingon culture which begs the question: How do you relate everything in a society back to being warriors and turning everything into a battle worthy of a Klingon?

[-] ProstheticBrain@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I guess if it's a state of mind, then everything can be viewed as a battle.

Today I wage war on THE LAUNDRY PILE!

I, skilled strategist that I am, sit at my war desk and prepare my tactics. This year, I shall pay FAR LESS TAXES!

Today is a good day to dye my hair etc...

[-] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

There's an episode where someone ends up on a klingon farming world (I entierly forget the character and series) and the takeaway is that klingons basically have a warrior caste that are really the only ones the federation has encountered up to that point. The rest of the klingons respect their soldiers but aren't really into the same dogma.

What about Kolos, the advocate from ENT?

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

True baller.

Pakled therapist:

You are sad.

Being sad is not good. You should not be sad.

Try not being sad.

Did that work? No?

Now I'm sad too.

We are both sad. We need a therapist.

Pakled to Therapist: You can make us want to go outside?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 year ago

Should I make a Klingon LLM?

[-] loopedcandle@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 1 year ago
[-] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

I mean probably

For more like this, see "coach gowron" on Twitter

They moved to Mastodon a while ago. They can be found here now, too: https://tenforward.social/@coachgowron

Is it a group of people?

[-] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I'd really like to hear Micheal Dorn quote this.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Sure, but scraggly General Martok gives it the gravitas needed in that moment to Garak, as it's coming from a more seasoned warrior.

[-] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
[-] JWBananas@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Not exactly, but there are similar memorable quotes.

DS9:

[There is no greater enemy than one's own fears ...] (https://youtu.be/h2tzdbBgXC8?si=Ymk6HyfunWPzxm0P)

Lower Decks:

You wage war with yourself ...

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

"Sito was a warrior. You do not honor her."

"You didn't know her."

"Do you follow every order from your commanders?"

"No."

"Sito made her choice. You want to solve puzzles and mysteries? Your friend gave her life to protect that. She would not approve of your actions."

Love that scene!

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

This Is great

[-] Chickenstalker@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Klingons were never honobru. They fight like cowards, hiding behing cloaking devices. They backstab each other more than Romulans too. Worf was an anomaly. Essentially, Worf is a Klingon weeb who read about Klingon bushido ideals and propaganda and thought it was true.
